A working thin slice through the whole stack, in weeks not quarters.
What this actually involves
A proof of concept exists to kill an assumption cheaply. We build the narrowest path that touches every risky layer — real data, real latency, real cost — and report honestly on what it proved.
Roughly a third of the proofs we run end with a recommendation not to proceed. We consider those the profitable ones.
Riskiest-assumption first
We build the part most likely to fail, first.
Real data, real constraints
Synthetic demos prove nothing about production.
Cost and latency modelling
Unit economics at your projected volume, not at demo volume.
Go / no-go report
A written recommendation with the evidence attached.
What lands in your repository
Every engagement ends with artefacts your team owns — not a slide deck describing artefacts your team could have owned.
- Working prototype and source
- Measured latency and cost-per-transaction
- Go / no-go recommendation
- Production architecture sketch if it proceeds
A short conversation with an engineer, not a sales qualification call. If we're the wrong people for it, we'll say so and point you somewhere better.
