Production-grade by design

A demo that impresses and a system that runs are different products. Every AI system we ship has these four things built in.

Grounded

The model returns IDs; the server builds what the user sees. A product, price or action the model invented never reaches the screen.

Secured

OAuth 2.1 and Entra for MCP servers, role-based access, PIPEDA-aware data handling, and an ISO/IEC 27001 background from fifteen years of banking software.

Observable

OpenTelemetry and Application Insights from day one. We measure every hop, so when something degrades we know which one.

Evaluated

Evals and MCP conformance checks before launch, with cost and latency budgets per tool call, so the prototype that impressed still works at month six.

How we work

Short steps with something real at the end of each one, so you can stop or change direction at any point.

01 1 to 2 weeks

Discover

Interviews with the people doing the work, a look at your data and systems, and a written plan: what to build first, what it needs, what it would cost.

02 2 to 6 weeks

Prototype

A working agent, MCP server or retrieval system on your real data, built to find out what breaks before it matters.

03 Scoped per project

Production

Security, evaluations, observability and rollout. The prototype becomes a system your team can run and your auditors can read.

04 Ongoing

Operate

Monitoring, model and cost updates, and the next capability, with the same engineers who built it.

Built in the open

Three projects we created and use in our own work. Read the code before you hire us.

FluentCMS

★ 560+

An open-source CMS for .NET, built on ASP.NET Core and Blazor, that works as both a page-building CMS and a headless CMS on one API, with an AI writing assistant built in.

YeSvelte

★ 222

Svelte components whose look is a swappable theme: Tabler (Bootstrap) or daisyUI (Tailwind). Switch themes by swapping one stylesheet.

uBeac

The backend of an IoT platform that turned off-the-shelf Bluetooth gateways into live building dashboards: ingest, queue, decode, store, stream. Acquired in 2020 and published as a reference architecture.

Founder-led

Amir Pournasserian

Founder & CEO

Amir has spent more than twenty years on systems that aren't allowed to fail: banking platforms for twelve banks, a real-time tracking system for Canada's Department of National Defence, and a national travel booking platform. Since 2024 that discipline has gone into AI: multi-agent code review, real-estate intelligence, a consumer agent, and today the guest-facing AI platform of Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, where he is Principal AI Engineer/Architect.
