Applied AI & Agentic Systems

AI features, agents, and LLM systems that ship to production — not demos that die in staging.

01Questions buyers ask

What people actually ask before they hire us.

What's the difference between an agent and a tool call?
A tool call is one step — the model picks a function and gets a result. An agent is a system that plans across steps, retries when things fail, and decides when it's done. Most production 'AI features' are tool calls dressed up; agents are when you let the model own the loop.
How do you keep LLM cost and latency from spiraling?
Three levers: route cheaper models to easier sub-steps (we hit −71% cost at Delos this way), cache aggressively at prompt and response layers, and instrument every call so you find expensive paths instead of guessing. The cost curve is fixable; it's just usually nobody's job.
What does production observability for agents actually look like?
Per-turn traces with inputs, outputs, tool calls, and token spend; a way to replay any conversation deterministically; alerts on precision and recall drift against a held-out eval set. Without those three, you ship and pray.
How do you know if your AI is actually working in production?
You define what 'working' means before you ship — a golden eval set, a precision target, a cost ceiling — and you monitor against it weekly. AI without an eval set is a demo, not a product.
02What we deliver

The shape of the work.

Capabilities

  • Agentic systems & multi-step orchestration
  • Retrieval & RAG architectures
  • LLM evaluation, cost & latency optimization
  • MLOps & production observability

How it goes

  1. Week 1Discovery + eval plan

    Your use case, your data, your constraints. We leave with a written eval plan, a cost ceiling, and a target precision.

  2. Weeks 2–4First agent in production

    Behind a feature flag. Real traffic, real evals, real cost data — no synthetic benchmarks.

  3. Weeks 5–8Iterate against the eval set

    Tune routing, add retrieval, harden failure modes. Precision climbs, cost drops, observability gets real.

  4. Week 9+Hand-off or continue

    Your team owns the system, or we keep operating it as your AI partner. Your call.
