Process

Scope. Build. Ship. Operate.

  1. Step 1
    Scope

    90‑minute working session; narrow, high‑leverage target.

  2. Step 2
    Build

    Iterative weekly drops; prod‑ready artifacts from day one.

  3. Step 3
    Ship

    Hardening, retries, monitoring, guardrails, observability.

  4. Step 4
    Operate

    Handoff or retained ops; docs and owner training.

Technical Differentiators

Reliability over hype.

Reliability over hype

Deterministic flows, retries, circuit breakers, observability.

Grounded outputs

Citations and traceable provenance for answers and actions.

Privacy & control

Self‑host or VPC‑first deployments; data residency respected.

Tool use that works

Browser/files/functions—beyond chat into actual operations.

Engagement Models

Pick the mode that fits your runway.

Working Session

Fixed fee. Scope, plan, and immediate wins with a concrete path to delivery.

  • 90 minutes
  • Prioritized roadmap
  • Actionable next steps
Implementation Sprint

1–3 weeks. Defined outcomes; rapid iteration; weekly demos; production in sight.

  • Tight scope
  • Fast feedback
  • Prod‑ready artifacts
Operator Retainer

Keep systems reliable and improving—monitoring, tuning, and safe expansions.

  • SLOs
  • Change discipline
  • Steady velocity

FAQ

Clear answers, no buzzwords.

How fast can we ship a first win?+

Typically 1–2 weeks for a scoped pilot (voice agent, RAG snapshot, or automation). We pick a narrow target, instrument it, and ship something your team can use immediately.

Can you work on‑prem or inside our VPC?+

Yes. Deployments can be self‑hosted or VPC‑first. Deployments use Nginx gateways, WireGuard, and standard IaC to keep ops simple and auditable.

Which LLMs and tools do you use?+

Whichever best fits constraints: OpenAI/Anthropic/Google for hosted; local models when privacy/cost require. Tooling includes Next.js, FastAPI, Supabase, Playwright, CUDA, and MCP‑style orchestration.

What does handoff look like?+

Plain‑English docs, owner training, and clean repos. Client teams can take over, or retain Terminus to operate and improve with SLOs.

How do you ensure reliability?+

Deterministic flows, retries/backoff, circuit breakers, observability, and testable prompts. Outputs are cited where applicable for traceability.
