03 / Production · $6,500 · Two weeks

AI live in production.
Will it hold up?

For teams with AI features already in customers' hands.

Your prototype demoed well. Now it's in production and the cracks are showing: RAG hallucinating, agents looping, costs spiking, latency you can't predict. This audit pinpoints exactly where the production layer needs hardening, in what order, and with what effort, so you fix the thing that'll break first, not the thing that's easiest.

What we do

  • Architecture review (model routing, caching, batching, fallback logic) to find where load or a model outage takes you down
  • Eval audit: how much is actually covered, what's automated, and whether you'd catch a regression before your customers do
  • Cost analysis of your token spend today and where it lands at scale, with the specific optimizations that move the number
  • Reliability assessment of your failure modes, observability, and what actually happens during an incident
  • Operational maturity: who can debug this at 2am, how locked-in you are to one model, and where knowledge is dangerously concentrated

Best for

  • AI-native startups 6–24 months into a build
  • Teams with paying customers who depend on the AI working
  • Companies preparing to scale 5–10x and unsure the infrastructure will hold

What we don't do

  • Hand you a wish list. Every recommendation comes with an effort and impact estimate so you can decide what's worth it.
  • Re-architect for the sake of it. If what you have holds at your real scale, we'll tell you.
  • Lock you into us. The report is yours to act on however you choose.

You walk away with

  • A prioritized roadmap, every item tagged with effort and impact, so the trade-offs are obvious
  • A clear picture of where you'll break first as you scale, and what it costs to fix versus to ignore
  • A 90-minute walkthrough with the team that did the work
  • Audit fee credits toward any production engagement that follows, so for serious buyers the audit is a deposit, not a cost

Proof point to add: one real example with a number, e.g. we cut one client's token spend by 40%, or found the agent loop costing them $3k a month.

Tell us where it's cracking.

20 minutes to confirm scope and what hardening would take.

A short call to confirm scope. No prep, no pitch. If it's not a fit, we'll say so.

Standard across all three

What every audit includes by default.

Senior engineers only

No juniors, no offshore handoff. The names on the team page are the people doing your audit.

Fixed price, fixed scope

A written agreement before we start. No surprise invoices, no scope creep without your sign-off.

Two-week turnaround

From kickoff to written report. We don't drag audits out. Two weeks, or it doesn't bill.

You own the report

Share it with your team, your board, your investors. The audit is a deliverable, not gated content.

No proposal pushed at the end

You decide what's next. If you want to go further, we'll scope it. If you'd rather act on the report yourself, that's a good outcome too.
