Advisory services

AI advice from people who actually ship it.

Most AI consultancies have never operated the thing they're recommending. We build and operate our own products — one of them live in production today, with paying customers. When we sit on your side of the table, you're getting an operator — not a slide deck.

What we help with

Four ways we plug in.

Pick one or combine them. Every engagement is led by someone who has built and operated production AI products — not a bench of juniors.

01

AI product engineering

From spec to shipped. We architect and build AI-native products — LLM pipelines, agents, retrieval, receipt/document OCR, real-time engines — using the exact stack we run in production across our own portfolio.

02

Fractional CTO & product strategy

Technical leadership on tap. Roadmap and architecture reviews, hiring plans, and honest build-vs-buy calls from someone who has carried the pager for real products with real users.

03

Business & entity architecture

The scaffolding under a durable company: multi-entity structure, tax-efficient design and operating discipline for founders building for the long term, not just the next raise.

04

Data & analytics strategy

Deep enterprise-analytics roots. We help you turn scattered data into a decision engine — instrumentation, pipelines and the handful of metrics that actually move the business.

Engagement models

Three ways to work together.

Build sprint

A fixed, time-boxed sprint to take one AI feature or MVP from idea to working software. Best when you know what you want and need it shipped fast.

Fractional leadership

An ongoing fractional CTO / AI-lead retainer — a few days a month of hands-on technical direction for teams that need senior judgment without a full-time hire.

Advisory retainer

Lightweight, high-leverage advice on call — architecture, strategy, entity and data decisions — for founders who mostly need the right answer at the right moment.

Why us

We advise from the arena.

2

Products built

Our own products in fintech and document AI — real software we own and operate, not case studies about someone else's.

1

Live & earning

WickPick is in production with paying seats today. We know what it costs to keep a product running, because we do it.

2

Verticals deep

Real domain depth in the sectors we operate — so advice is grounded in how these businesses actually make money.

How it goes

From intro call to impact.

Intro call

A 30-minute conversation to understand what you're building, where you're stuck, and whether we're the right fit. No pitch theater.

Scope & shape

We define the smallest engagement that moves the needle — sprint, fractional or retainer — with clear outcomes and a flat, predictable price.

Do the work

Hands-on, in your tools, shipping or deciding in short loops. You get an operator in the room, not a status deck once a month.

Hand off strong

We leave you with working software, clear documentation and a team that can carry it forward — the opposite of dependency.

Tell us what you're building. We'll tell you honestly whether — and how — we can help. We take a small number of founding clients and scope the smallest engagement that proves value first — no long contracts to find out.
