Work with us
We take on a small number of engagements at a time, chosen for fit. Three ways to work with us — all senior-led, all built around your real decisions, none of them a course you sit through.
Consult
Select · short-termBest for: a hard, specific decision, or a proof-of-concept stalled on the way to production.
- AI-readiness assessment and a prioritised plan
- Architecture review against your real constraints
- Moving a stalled PoC to production
- Embed-and-handoff: build something real, then leave your team self-sufficient
You walk away with: Something shipped, and a team able to carry it forward. Fixed scope, fixed price — no open-ended retainers.
Talk through your situationCoach
Fortnightly · 1:1 or small groupBest for: architects and leads who want to sharpen how they make the hard calls.
- Sessions built on your live decisions, not a fixed syllabus
- We work the problem through together, in the room
- Reps on real trade-offs, with a senior pushing your reasoning
You walk away with: A solution you designed, and the judgment to make the next call without us.
Talk through your situationWorkshop
Half-day to multi-weekBest for: an engineering team adopting AI without eroding quality, security, or skill.
- A hands-on workshop on your own codebase
- Where AI fits the lifecycle — and where it doesn't
- The guardrails to adopt it safely, by stakes and reversibility
You walk away with: Artifacts you keep: a usage policy, a risk register, and a 90-day adoption plan.
Talk through your situationHow engagements run
Short, scoped, senior-led. We start with a conversation, not a proposal grind — you describe the real problem, we map it to the smallest engagement that solves it. One primary engagement at a time, so you get our attention, not our backlog.
Common questions
How is pricing structured?
Premium and scoped — never cheap and open-ended. You're paying for judgment, not hours. We quote a fixed scope and fixed price once we both understand the problem; exact figures come out of the first conversation.
Who actually does the work?
Samir Joshi leads every engagement as the principal. For larger work, vetted specialists join under his lead — but you're never handed a faceless bench.
What if we're not sure which one we need?
That's normal, and it's what the first conversation is for. Describe the real problem; we'll map it to the smallest engagement that solves it — or tell you honestly if you don't need us yet.
Have a decision or a stalled PoC on your hands?
Bring us the messy version. We'll help you see what to hand AI, what to keep human, and where to start.
