AI & Software Consulting for Manufacturing

Manufacturers, fabricators, and production facilities. These are the specific problems we see manufacturing businesses bring to us:

1. Tracking production orders and schedules. Our approach: honest assessment of what AI can and cannot do for your business. This directly addresses the way manufacturing professionals actually work.

2. Managing quality control and inspections. Our approach: advice from someone who builds AI products daily, not just advises on them. This directly addresses the way manufacturing professionals actually work.

3. Coordinating inventory and raw materials. Our approach: available as one-off sessions or ongoing advisory. This directly addresses the way manufacturing professionals actually work.

4. Maintaining equipment and reducing downtime. Our approach: honest assessment of what AI can and cannot do for your business. This directly addresses the way manufacturing professionals actually work.

Based on the challenges above, here are the applications we recommend for manufacturing businesses:

Inventory Management: Raw materials and finished goods tracking. Learn how to build a inventory management.

Each of these can be customised to your specific manufacturing workflows. We scope the exact features you need during a free consultation.

We measure success by real business outcomes, not feature lists. For manufacturing businesses, the key metrics are:

Production output: We set up tracking from day one so you can see the impact in real numbers.

Defect rate: We set up tracking from day one so you can see the impact in real numbers.

On-time delivery: We set up tracking from day one so you can see the impact in real numbers.

Tech adoption in manufacturing is at the medium level. About half of manufacturing businesses now use some form of digital tools. But most are using off-the-shelf products that only partially fit. Custom software built around your actual workflows is the next step.

Typical investment: $1500-4000. Most manufacturing clients see measurable ROI within the first month.

Discovery. You tell us about your manufacturing business: what is working, what is not, and what you wish you had. We ask about your current tools, team size, and daily workflows.

Scoping and quote. We define exactly what we will build and send you a fixed-price quote. No hourly rates. For manufacturing projects, this usually falls within $1500-4000.

Build. We build your solution, typically within 1 day to 4 weeks. You talk directly to our founder and lead engineer. No project managers or middlemen.

Launch and handover. We deploy, walk your team through everything, and provide ongoing support. You own all the code and data.
