AI, applied
to what you
actually do.

I’m an engineer who builds AI systems, and I take on consulting work. I’ll help you figure out where AI actually fits — then build the pipelines, chatbots, and agents that make it real. No hype, no jargon, no sales dance.

A note, up front

Most AI work right now is sold on hype and delivered on hope. I’d rather be specific, honest, and willing to say “don’t build this”. It’s me you’d be working with — one engineer, no account manager in between — and I’ll write your roadmap in plain English before you owe me anything.

Services

Four ways we work with you.
Usually, we start with one.

01 · Service

We figure out where AI actually fits — before a single line of code.

Most teams have heard the AI pitch a hundred times. What they need is an honest look at their business, an inventory of the tasks AI is actually good at today, and a roadmap that starts small. We sit with you, listen, and write the plan down in plain English.

  • Discovery interviews with your team
  • Opportunity map: what's worth it, what isn't
  • Vendor-agnostic recommendations
  • Written roadmap with costs & timelines

How we work

A four-step arc.
Short, honest, in that order.

  1. 01

    Listen

    A pair of short conversations where we learn what actually happens in your business day-to-day. No pitch deck, no jargon test.

    Two 45-min calls · Free
  2. 02

    Map

    We write up where AI genuinely helps, where it doesn't, and where we'd start. You get a roadmap in plain English that's useful even if you never hire us again.

    2–4 weeks · Fixed fee
  3. 03

    Build

    We pick one problem, ship a working version in weeks, and put it in front of the people who'll actually use it. We iterate with real feedback, not committee.

    2–8 weeks · Flat rate
  4. 04

    Tend

    Software isn't done when it ships. We stay on, watch the dashboards, retrain when needed, and make sure the thing keeps earning its keep.

The work

What I build, when nobody’s asking.

Systems where a model is the engine rather than a chat box. These are my own projects rather than client engagements — I’m writing them up properly elsewhere, and this list will grow as I do. Enough here to tell whether we’d work well together; happy to go line-by-line on a call.

Production LLM system01 / 03

A game whose antagonist is a live language model.

Between rounds the model reads how you're actually playing, plans the next one in natural language, and emits it in a grammar the engine executes. Every output clears an allowlist before it touches the simulation, and the route caps tokens, time, body size and memory — it can't be talked into a bigger bill. Pull the API key and it falls back to a deterministic director and still plays.

Shippedlive, and tested end to end
Agentic orchestration02 / 03

An agent loop that stops when a verifier says so.

A planner delegates to a bounded pool of workers, and each one iterates until an independent verifier passes — not until the model says it's finished. That distinction is the whole thing. Underneath: test-execution verifiers, a convergence tracker for stalled loops, and a budget guard that ends a run early rather than overrunning spend.

Verifier-gatedthe model doesn't grade itself
Retrieval & verification03 / 03

A harness built to survive its own adversary.

A purpose-built corpus queried through a CLI, so every answer traces back to something you can re-run rather than something the model recalled. Data-gathering is separated from interpretation, and an adversary pass tries to destroy each claim before it's recorded. Its first run killed three of five claims that ordinary self-review had waved through — which is the argument for building it this way.

Not a demo — the product

This is the thing I’d build you.

It’s running on the multi-tenant platform itself, not a mockup: grounded on a per-tenant knowledge base, rate-limited, hardened against prompt injection, and built to say “I don’t know” instead of guessing. Try to catch it overstating something — that’s the useful test.

Hi — I'm the Sol Computing assistant. Ask me about what we do, our process, or how an engagement usually goes. I'll keep it plain-English.

Frequently asked

You've probably wondered.

Don't see yours? Send us the question — we'll answer by email before we'd try to sell you anything.

  • Honestly, that's the ideal starting point. Half the value of our consulting engagement is deciding what NOT to build. If we talk and conclude you shouldn't spend money on AI right now, we'll tell you.
  • No. Messy data is the norm, not a disqualifier. Part of what we do is figure out what subset of your data is clean enough to be useful today, and whether cleaning more is worth the effort.
  • No. We pick what fits — sometimes a hosted model, sometimes an open-weights model on your infrastructure. We'll explain the trade-offs and hand you the keys.
  • For Build and Tend engagements we can deploy within your cloud, on-prem, or behind VPN. We sign NDAs as a matter of course, and we never train third-party models on your data.
  • There isn't one. If you have one clear recurring pain point and someone who can spend a few hours a week with us, that's enough — team size matters less than that.
  • Our services are primarily delivered in the U.S. We're exploring select international engagements on a case-by-case basis — reach out and we'll tell you honestly whether we can help.
  • Good — that's often the right move. We document everything, hand over clean code, train your team, and step out. No hostage-taking.

Let’s figure out what’s worth it.

Two free conversations. A plain-English plan. No pressure, no sales dance.
