Bounded agents that do real work, with logs you can trust.
Agent demos are easy. Agents that survive contact with real data, real permissions, and real edge cases are not. I build bounded agents that use tools, respect permissions, log every action, and hand off to a human when they should. Connected to your workflows, measured by evals, and safe to put in front of real work.
Fixed project fee, scoped to the agent. Complexity (tools, autonomy, integrations) sets the band.
Most agent demos never reach production.
The gap between a demo and a deployed agent is permissions, logging, evals, and failure handling. A demo answers a happy-path prompt. A production agent has to know what it is allowed to do, prove what it did, and fail safely when the input is strange. That gap is the work.
What you get, and how it is built.
Bounded agents with tool use, permissions, logs, evals, and approval.
Scoped to a real job, given only the tools and permissions it needs, and instrumented so you can see and trust every run.
A small number of moves, each one verifiable.
Every stage ships its own deliverables, so you can see progress and correct course before the next one starts.
Scope the job
We define exactly what the agent does, what it can touch, and where a human stays in the loop.
Build the agent
I build the agent, its tools, and its guardrails against your real systems.
Instrument and eval
Logging, tool-call history, and an eval suite go in so quality is measured, not assumed.
Ship and own
You own the agent and its instrumentation. An optional retainer keeps the evals honest as it scales.
I do not sell an autonomous workforce. I sell bounded agents that work.
No agent army, no AI employees, no autonomous company. Bounded agents with logs, permissions, approvals, and a number for how well they do the job.
I do not advise on AI from the outside. I build these systems in my own products first, live with the failure modes, and rebuild the parts that break under real users. The patterns I bring to your build are the ones I have already paid for in mine.
One project fee. No surprises.
Fixed project fee, scoped to the agent. Complexity (tools, autonomy, integrations) sets the band.
A bounded production agent with tools, permissions, logs, and evals.
Multi-tool, autonomous, or deeply integrated agents sit higher in the band.
Before you reach out
Start with a short call. Straight answer either way.
We confirm fit, scope the work, and decide whether to start with the Intensive or go straight to the build.
One letter, every Sunday. Working systems, not hot takes.
Build logs, working systems, and field notes from running a portfolio of AI ventures. Sent weekly, never more.
