[ WHO IS THIS FOR ]

CTO or lead engineer at a post-Series A or mid-market company that has an LLM feature ready to build but lacks the internal capacity or expertise to execute it in the near term.

You need this when:

  • LLM feature is on the roadmap but the team is at capacity
  • Internal team has tried to build the feature and stalled
  • Investor or board demo is coming and the AI feature needs to be real
  • Need to prove LLM value quickly before committing to a larger AI team buildout
  • Specific LLM integration is blocking other product work
[ ROI FRAME ]

  • Working, deployed LLM integration in your production environment
  • Clean, documented, tested code submitted via pull request
  • Architecture documentation for the integration
  • Monitoring and observability setup
  • Cost projection for ongoing LLM API spend
