How We Work With You
Embed us within your teams and organization, hire us to help with one-off projects, or book us for an AI training session.
We don't have a $10M minimum.
• Individuals/Teams
Equip teams and executives with targeted support for ad-hoc projects, automations, and upskilling. Focused one-off projects and training sessions.
• Multiple Teams
Break down silos and streamline collaboration. We design integrated solutions that simplify workflows and connect your data, teams, and tools.
• Organizations
Build strategically. From AI roadmaps to production-ready applications, we help you move from legacy systems to AI rails and long-term impact.
Why you need AI experts.
Everyone’s trying AI. Very few are succeeding.
AI projects fail because leadership underestimates what it takes to get from idea to prototype to product.

AI Knowledge Gap
SMB leaders admit limited understanding of how AI fits their business. (Omdena)
Even when the tech works, there are real challenges to overcome:
Hallucinations
LLMs generate fluent but false answers when context is missing—making outputs unreliable and hard to trust.
False Negatives
AI says the info isn’t there. It is—it's just buried in a table, chart, or scanned PDF that hasn’t been
processed properly.
Pipeline Complexity
AI systems depend on multi-step pipelines: ingestion, preprocessing, chunking, embedding, retrieval, and orchestration.
Data Leakage
Without rigorous access controls, sensitive or private data can leak into embeddings, output responses, or logs.
Security Flaws
Code generated by AI can introduce subtle bugs or security flaws: insecure defaults, unvalidated inputs, unsafe libraries, or missing authentication.
Infrastructure Debt
Legacy systems often lack the data architecture, processing speed, or memory requirements to support modern AI workloads.
Model Drift
The model worked when you launched. But now your data or the model has changed—and responses are slowly getting worse.
Blindspots
AI systems are difficult to test in production. Without labeled data, benchmarks, or user feedback loops, teams can’t track accuracy, coverage, or model degradation.
Bad Data
Without governance, controls, and evaluation, bad data spreads through AI projects, degrading quality and trust and often leading to project failure.
Retrieval Failures
RAG systems break when chunking, ranking, or embeddings don’t align—causing the model to miss or ignore relevant data.
Deep Experience in Key Industries
Our team comes from data- and regulatory-heavy sectors.
01 Finance
Two decades of experience across private wealth, alternative investments, and fintech, working at firms like iCapital, Man Investments, and Glenwood Capital, and serving clients including SMFG, Mizuho, GM, Hightower, Raymond James, and many others. With backgrounds in sales, marketing, communications, product, and research, we bring an insider’s view of how the industry works—and where AI can make it faster, smarter, and more efficient.
02 Healthcare
PhD and postdoctoral expertise from leading institutions like Osaka University (Medicine), Kyoto University (AI/NLP), and the University of Maryland School of Medicine. This deep academic foundation, combined with professional networks across Japan, China, and the U.S., helps us apply cutting-edge AI to critical clinical- and research-related challenges. We are committed to developing solutions grounded in real healthcare needs, moving beyond abstract theory to create tangible impact.
03 Others
We’ve modernized construction workflows in Japan, delivering automation tools to firms like Sankou Scaffolding. Experience in reading CAD with AI and deep knowledge of Japan’s strict building standards, we know how to bring meaningful upgrades without breaking trusted processes. If you have expertise in any field and want to explore how AI can be applied, we can help.
