How We Work
Every engagement is scoped to your specific situation. From understanding your challenge to deploying a production system — here’s how we approach it.
Typical Engagement Models
Strategy Sprint
Typically 2 weeksFor teams that need clarity before committing to a build.
- Readiness assessment of your data, infrastructure, security, and team capabilities
- Architecture blueprint for your highest-impact initiative
- Prioritized roadmap with realistic timelines
- Security and governance gap analysis
- Executive presentation of findings and recommendations
You walk away with: A clear, actionable plan — whether you engage us to build it or take it to your internal team.
Discuss a Strategy SprintBuild & Deploy
Typically 4 – 12 weeksA production system — AI, cloud platform, or security overhaul — architected and deployed.
- Custom AI system, cloud platform, or security architecture
- Deployed on your AWS or Azure environment
- Security, IAM, and governance included from day one
- Documentation and knowledge transfer to your team
- Post-launch support period included
You walk away with: A production-grade system your team can maintain, plus the knowledge to extend it.

Monthly retainerFor companies that want a senior architect embedded in their decision-making.
- Architecture reviews and code audits
- New feature design and implementation
- Security posture reviews and governance frameworks
- Team mentoring and upskilling
- Priority response on technical decisions
You walk away with: Senior architectural guidance on an ongoing basis — without the overhead of a full-time hire.
Discuss a RetainerCommon Questions
How is pricing structured?
It depends on scope and complexity. Strategy Sprints are fixed-fee. Build projects are typically fixed-price with milestones. Advisory retainers are monthly. We'll give you a clear proposal after understanding your specific needs — no surprises.
Can we start with a Strategy Sprint and then move to Build?
That's the most common path. The Sprint gives you a clear blueprint, and if we move forward together, the Sprint investment is credited toward the build project.
Who does the actual work?
Our founder Samir Joshi leads every engagement as the principal architect. For larger projects, we bring in vetted specialists from our network while Samir remains the technical lead and your primary point of contact.
What industries do you work with?
Our deepest recent experience is in healthcare and legal/compliance, but the underlying patterns — secure cloud architecture, data platform engineering, production AI deployment — apply across industries. If your challenge involves getting systems from proof-of-concept to production reliably, we can likely help.
What if we're not sure what we need yet?
That's perfectly fine — and quite common. Get in touch and we'll have an honest conversation about where you are and what might make sense. Sometimes the answer is "you don't need us yet," and we're comfortable saying that.
Not sure which engagement fits?
