Mottainai — waste nothing

Keep what works.
Mend the rest.

We pair senior engineering judgment with agent-augmented delivery. Agentic delivery means outcomes are priced like outcomes, not open-ended, rewrite-everything projects. We also offer other services, where our experience can deliver real results. We can help you find what is right for you.

Where we help

Find your starting point.

Modernize

Modernize a legacy system

Documentation recovery, test-suite generation, and dependency migration for legacy and industrial codebases, delivered fixed-price by agent squads working under senior direction. That direction comes from 25+ years shipping production systems.

Enable

Train your team

Workshops and retainers that install agentic workflows directly into engineering teams whose AI tooling investment hasn't moved velocity yet. Built from the same practices we run on paid modernization engagements, not slide-deck theory.

Lead

Grant-funded ventures

Fractional CTO leadership for university spinouts and deep-tech startups: architecture, delivery discipline, and SBIR/STTR proposal support. That support comes from someone who has delivered on SBIR contracts, not only written the proposals.
