what we offer

AI strategy icon
AI Strategy & Product Advisory

Our core offering, now AI-first. In weekly working sessions we help you find where LLMs create real product value — build vs. buy, roadmap, and shipping AI features that actually work in production.

Frontier LLM icon
Frontier LLM Integration

Get the most out of frontier models like Claude, GPT, and Gemini: RAG, agents and tool use, evals, prompt and context engineering, and the cost-and-latency tuning that separates a demo from a product.

Local inference icon
Local & On-Device Inference

Run open models on your own hardware or at the edge for privacy, control, and lower cost. We help with quantization, serving stacks like vLLM and llama.cpp, and right-sizing your GPUs.

Decentralized GPU icon
AI Infrastructure & Decentralized GPU

Scale inference without scaling your bill. We've architected decentralized GPU networks — including Sogni AI — to put frontier-grade compute within reach of a global audience.

Smart contracts icon
Blockchain, Smart Contracts & Tokenomics

From token design and tokenomics to DAOs, cross-chain bridges, and on-chain products — we've built and shipped it all. Lean on years of hands-on Web3 experience.

Security icon
Security, Fundraising & Networking

We've kept top-100 sites like CoinMarketCap online under heavy load and attack, and we're well connected across VC, launchpad, hiring, and press circles to help you grow.
