Applied AI Lab · Est. 2024

Applied AI, built to run your business.

We stand up real AI use cases — business intelligence and the operational workflows that keep the place moving — and build them to last. Weeks, not roadmaps.

What we build

Three deliverables, one throughline: you leave with capability, not a dependency.

01

A unified data lake

One governed place your data actually lives — the systems, the spreadsheets, all of it. Read-only, safe, and answerable in plain language.

02

Internal AI apps

Tools your team opens on a Tuesday. Dashboards, assistants, and workflows you can build, use, and publish inside the business.

03

A face to match

For partners we build with, we rebuild the front door too — the site, the story, the first impression. This one’s ours.

How we work

We don’t rent you a black box. We build on Setoku.

Setoku is the open-source context layer we build and maintain — a governed path between AI and your data, self-hosted on your own box. When our engagement ends, what we installed is still standing, still yours, still auditable.

  • Self-hosted — your data never leaves your walls
  • Open source — no lock-in, no seat you can’t see inside
  • Human-in-the-loop — the AI proposes, a person approves

HedgyAI recruiter

Hedgy is an AI recruiter we designed and built end to end — live in production, running on the same stack we’d stand up for you.

It’s the shortest version of our pitch: we don’t just advise on AI, we ship it. Go see it working.
