AI product studio

We design and build AI products end to end - from the first idea to the thing running in production. Thin input in, a decision-grade read out.

How we work

01

Off the obvious axis

We take the work most studios pass on - unfamiliar territory, problems without an obvious shape. The interesting answer is usually off the main axis. That's where the name comes from, and where we prefer to work.

02

Thin input, decision-grade out

The throughline across everything we build: take thin input and return something you can actually decide on. A few numbers in, a decision-grade read out - and the product gives you the ground to decide. It never makes the call for you.

03

Designed and built together

We design it and we build it - strategy, interface, and the engineering underneath, accountable to each other rather than thrown over a wall. From the first idea to the thing running in production.

About

I'm the founder of . It works like a studio, not a one-off - a founder and a team, and work that goes through pass after pass before anyone sees it. Nothing ships raw. A site, an email, a product: same standard, every time. The iteration is the work.

I take the briefs other studios pass on. Real estate intelligence, a voice engine, land feasibility - three different worlds, each entered cold and carried to something people actually use.

The products tend to share a shape - thin input, a decision-grade read, the call left to the person using it. In RE Intelligence and Kindling that's the whole point. But the constant isn't the concept, it's the method: build, look hard, cut, build again, until it earns its place.

Twenty years in the IT industry, building systems that had to hold up in the real world, not in a deck. I architect and direct rather than hand work off in pieces, so the strategy, the interface, and the engineering actually fit.

If you have something worth building, I'd like to hear about it.
