01 Manifesto

Applied intelligence, not announced.

We live in an age where every company claims to be «AI-powered». Few translate that promise into systems that work at three in the morning, under load, with messy data, under regulation, under pressure. Daath.ai exists for that gap.

«Daath» is the hidden sefirah — the knowledge that connects the tree. We build the invisible infrastructure that turns models into products.

We work from architectural diagnosis to continuous operation: we audit your stack, design the right adaptation strategy (RAG, fine-tuning, distillation, agents), implement with engineering rigor, and operate with real observability. No hype, no demo that won't scale.

Every project starts with a hard question: does this problem actually need AI? When it does, we deliver systems that measure, improve and account. When it doesn't, we say so plainly — and help solve it with the right tool.

02 Why Daath.ai

The difference is who you talk to.

Four commitments
/ 01

Founder-led. Always.

The person you meet in the first call is the one who architects your system. No junior handoffs, no revolving door of associates. Senior signature on every deliverable.

/ 02

Production-grade or nothing.

We don't ship demos. Every engagement targets a system that runs under real load, with real users, with observability and rollback plans built in from day one.

/ 03

Compliance by design.

EU AI Act, LGPD, GDPR, SOC 2, HIPAA — we design the governance layer in parallel with the model layer. Regulated industries welcome. Auditability is not an afterthought.

/ 04

Handoff, not lock-in.

Every project ends with your team owning the code, the runbook and the eval harness. We measure success by the capability we leave installed — not the retainer we extend.

06 How we work

Four phases, one accountable partner.

Method & cadence
01

Discover

Architectural diagnosis. We audit data, stack, workflows and regulatory context to define what to build — and whether AI is the right answer.

Week 1–4
02

Architect

Reference architecture with model choice, retrieval strategy, guardrails, cost envelope and observability plan. Defendable by leadership.

Week 3–6
03

Build

Bi-weekly sprints with demos. Evals from day one, CI/CD from day two, production hardening before we call anything done.

Week 6–24
04

Operate & handoff

Runbooks, on-call rotation, drift monitoring. Your team takes ownership on your timeline — we stay as thin backup, not gatekeeper.

10 FAQ

Straight answers.

The questions we hear most
How is Daath.ai different from a Big Four AI practice?
Two things. First, the founder architects your system — you never get downgraded to junior consultants after the sale. Second, we ship production systems in weeks, not quarters, because we have no internal approval theater to run. Big Four still wins for global rollouts across 20+ regulatory regimes. For everything else, boutique specialists deploy 5–10× faster at a fraction of the cost.
Do you actually help with EU AI Act, LGPD or GDPR compliance?
Yes — as a design input, not an afterthought. We classify your use case by risk, document the model card, design the audit trail, and pick architectures that support explainability. We won't stamp legal opinions, but every system we ship is defensible in front of a DPO or regulator on day one.
Can you work with our existing data / ML team?
Preferred. Embedded engagement is our best mode — we sit inside your team, transfer patterns as we build, and leave your engineers stronger than we found them. Handoff is a success metric for us, not a fear.
How fast can you actually ship something to production?
A working prototype in 2–4 weeks. A production-hardened system with evals, observability and rollback in 8–16 weeks. Faster if you already have clean data and a real user, slower if we're also fixing the pipeline underneath. The Discovery sprint tells you exactly which case you're in.
What if we don't actually need AI for this?
We'll tell you. Roughly one in four Discovery engagements ends with «this should be a database query, a workflow rule, or a better UI, not an LLM». We'd rather bill four weeks and be honest than run a six-month project that doesn't move the needle.
Do you build with open-source, closed models, or both?
Whatever the problem needs. Frontier APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google) where quality matters most. Open weights (Llama, Mistral, Qwen) where you need on-prem, custom fine-tuning, or cost control. Often a mix in the same architecture. The decision is data-driven, not ideological.
What about after the project ends?
Two options. Full handoff with a runbook and 30 days of on-call — your team owns everything. Or the Operate engagement: we stay lean and long-term, maintaining, tuning and evolving the system while your team focuses on product. Either way, no lock-in — everything runs on your infrastructure.
