Your business knows things AI doesn't.
We fix that.

Foundry is a forward-deployed engineering team. We embed inside your business, build custom AI workflows on data you already have, and install working software on your machines in two weeks. Vendors ship the same product to thousands; we encode your specific business.

Why this matters
Most companies trying to use AI hit the same wall: the AI doesn't know their business. It doesn't know their data, their workflows, their terminology, or the judgment their best people carry in their heads. That gap doesn't close by buying more SaaS. It closes by teaching the AI about your specific organization.
WHAT YOU RECEIVE

A desktop app.
Your workflows. Your data.

At the end of every engagement, we install a desktop application on your team's machines. Inside it: AI-powered workflows built specifically for your business, tuned to your data and how your people actually work. No browser tabs. No SaaS portal. Software that belongs to you.

01.Install and run locally

The app lives on your machines. Your data stays under your control. No SaaS portal. It works offline and never phones home without permission.

02.Custom to your business

The workflows inside aren't generic templates. Built on your historical data, your vendor relationships, and the way your team makes decisions. Every engagement produces something uniquely yours.

03.Works with what you already use

Connects to your existing tools: ERP, CRM, document systems, email. The intelligent layer above your vendor stack, not a replacement for it. Your team keeps every tool they already know.

04.Grows with you

Each retainer cycle adds new workflows to the same app. What starts as one capability in week two becomes a compounding set by month six.

THE PROBLEM

Three options.
Two of them don't work.

Every mid-market company trying to use AI faces the same three options. Most pick one of the first two and get stuck. The third path (the one that actually works) requires a different kind of partner.

Doesn't work

Buy a SaaS AI tool

Vendors ship one product to thousands. The AI doesn't know your data or workflows. Your team tries it for a month and goes back to the old way.

Takes too long

Build it yourself

Building AI infrastructure from scratch takes 12-18 months and a team of specialists you don't have. By the time it ships, the technology has moved on.

The Foundry path

Forward-deployed engineers who teach your team AI

We embed inside your business for two weeks, learn your specific workflows and data, and build a custom tool that runs on your machine. Working software, not a deck.

HOW IT WORKS

Four capabilities.
One platform that compounds.

Under the hood, your desktop app is powered by four capabilities that work together. You don't need to know their names; you just need to know what they do for your business.

01 — KNOWLEDGE

Your company's knowledge base

Institutional memory, historical data, and team expertise in a form AI can actually use. Six months in, your AI knows your company better than any new hire could.

02 — WORKFLOWS

AI-powered workflows

Structured processes that turn messy AI interactions into repeatable, reliable operations. Your team follows workflows designed around how your business actually works. Not prompts in a chat window.

03 — MEASUREMENT

Measurement that proves value

Real numbers, not promises. You'll know exactly which workflows save time, how much, and where the next high-value opportunity is.

04 — VISIBILITY

Visual tools for your team

Dashboards, alerts, and comparison views that surface what matters without requiring technical skill. Everyone gets the view they need, in language they understand.

These capabilities come together under Foundry, a platform purpose-built for companies that need AI to work. We don't just hand you a tool; we build the processes, teach your team, and make sure it compounds every quarter.

Every engagement makes the platform better. Every improvement benefits every customer.

When we embed inside your business, the real problems your team faces stress-test the platform. Every workflow we ship reveals what the system needs when real people use it. You benefit from every customer who came before you.

The concrete mechanism
A workflow pattern that works for an estimator in construction informs how we build a workflow for an operations manager in healthcare. The knowledge-capture technique that works for a wealth manager's client data helps us capture institutional memory for a general contractor. The measurement approach that proves ROI in one vertical proves it in another. Every engagement compounds the platform's capability and yours.

Customer Engagement REAL DATA + REAL WORK stresses Foundry Platform LEARNS FROM EVERY ENGAGEMENT improves Working Software SHIPPED IN 2 WEEKS retains recursive proof

A predictable shape.
With per-customer tailoring.

Every engagement follows the same arc: embed, build, deliver, expand. At each stage, you own the tool. You decide what's worth adding next.

STAGE 01

Discovery

One to two weeks. We embed with your team, learn your data, and build a working prototype on real problems.

Working prototype installed on your machines — usable from day one.
$0 — $25k
STAGE 02

Demo + Decision

Your team evaluates the prototype on real work. Does it help? Is it worth expanding?

Your team tests the tool in their daily workflow and decides.
decision gate
STAGE 03

Retainer

Monthly engagement. We expand your tool with new workflows each cycle, tuned to what your team actually needs next.

New workflows shipped to your app every month. Your knowledge base grows with each cycle.
$3k — $15k / mo
STAGE 04

Expansion

New teams, new departments, additional workflows. Scope grows as value proves out; you choose what's worth investing in next.

Additional teams onboarded; cross-department workflows enabled. Same app, more capability.
scope-driven
STAGE 05

Off-ramp

Your tool stays installed and functional. Transition to a lower-cost maintenance subscription. Your team runs it independently.

Self-sufficient operation. The tool is yours — it keeps working whether or not you keep paying us.
12 — 24 mo

Transparent pricing. Every dollar goes toward capabilities your team asked for. The off-ramp is written into every contract on day one. We share AI infrastructure costs upfront.

VERTICALS WE SERVE

Diverse by design.
One pattern that generalizes.

We work across industries to prove the model isn't industry-specific. If the approach works in construction, senior living, and wealth management, it works anywhere mid-market businesses need AI to deliver real value.

Construction

Cost estimation meets institutional memory

Historical estimate data, meeting notes, and project timelines fused into one decision surface. Your estimators stop re-learning lessons from three projects ago.

Senior Living / Healthcare

Operations across systems and facilities

Bank reconciliation, compliance documentation, and cross-facility reporting unified in one place. Staff spend less time in spreadsheets and more time with residents.

Wealth Management

AI-native financial planning

Cash flow modeling, retirement readiness, and client reporting powered by AI. Plans that used to take hours take minutes, and they're better.

OUR COMMITMENT

What we promise.
In writing.

We don't ask you to take anything on faith. Every engagement comes with these commitments built in.

01.Working software in two weeks

Not a slide deck. A working prototype installed on your machines, running on your data. If we can't deliver that, the engagement ends and you owe nothing.

02.Transparent pricing

Monthly retainers with clear scope. No hidden fees. We share AI infrastructure costs upfront so you know the full cost of working with us.

03.Off-ramp on day one

Every contract includes a migration path to self-sufficient operation. After 12-24 months, you transition to a lower-cost maintenance subscription. Your tool stays yours.

04.Measurement from the start

We track what's working and share the numbers with you. If a workflow isn't saving time or money, we fix it or replace it.

What we build
the AI tools out of.

You don't need to know this to work with us. But if you're the person who asks "what's under the hood?" here's the honest answer: four purpose-built layers, each doing one thing well.

Forge
The cockpit. The desktop application your team interacts with day-to-day. Forge hosts the AI conversation surface, the dashboards, and the workflow panels. It's the thing that gets installed on your machine and the thing your team opens in the morning.
Anvil
Workflow definitions. Anvil is where we define what your AI workflows actually do — the steps, the inputs, the decision points. Think of it as the blueprint layer: each workflow is a precisely specified unit that can be tested, versioned, and shipped to your app.
Temper
Outcome measurement. Temper tracks whether what we built is actually working — time saved, errors avoided, money recovered. This is the layer that produces the numbers we share with you in every retainer review. Measurement isn't bolted on; it's built in from the start.
Lore
Institutional memory. Lore retains the context your AI needs to give useful answers — historical project data, decisions made, terminology your team uses, domain knowledge from your best people. It's the reason your system gets smarter the longer you use it.

These four layers make the platform durable rather than a one-time integration. The stack is ours; the workflows, the data, and the knowledge base are yours.
