Testimonials
Yes, when it supports people rather than trades. Research summaries, surveillance triage and reporting are good fits; anything that places or changes orders stays with your existing controls.
We avoid collecting biometric data unless it is essential. When it is, written consent, a retention schedule and deletion are designed in before any data is captured.
Yes. We build integrations between the systems you already run, such as your ERP, CRM, warehouse and plant software, so data moves automatically instead of being typed in twice. Where a system has no API, we work with exports, its database or the vendor's integration tools.
Both. Most of what Chicago companies ask us for is custom software: portals, internal tools, integrations and dashboards. We add AI where it removes real effort and leave it out where simple software does the job.
It depends on scope far more than on location: how many users and roles the software has, which systems it connects to, such as your ERP, CRM or payment provider, whether it handles regulated data, and whether it includes AI features. We scope these with you and give you an estimate broken down by feature, so you can choose what goes into the first release.
Look at software they have shipped in your industry and ask to speak with past clients. Ask who will own the code, how they handle the rules that apply to you, how much of your working day they are available for live calls, and what support looks like after launch. A good partner will also tell you what not to build first.
Yes. We add AI agents and automation to your existing systems, such as ERP, CRM and document workflows, and data analytics on top of the data you already have, with people approving the decisions that matter.
