In production

An operating system for a steel contractor.

Our largest build runs the daily operations of Flawless Steel Welding, a commercial structural steel contractor in Denver — model coordination, shop production, quality evidence, field execution, procurement and project controls in one workspace. Not a pilot and not a prototype: it is the system the business is actually run on.

Consulting

Or we build it for you.

Three ways we work with fabricators, erectors and contractors — from a single custom tool to the whole AI environment your team runs on.

Custom automation builds

The software above is the credential. We build the same calibre of tool against your workflow — shop floor scheduling, RFI tracking, takeoffs, job costing, whatever is eating your week.

  • Integrated with the systems you already run
  • Yours to keep — no per-seat licence trap
  • Built and handed over, not rented back to you

Frontier model environments

Most teams get poor results from AI because the environment around the model is wrong, not the model. We set up the context, tooling and guardrails that make Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Grok actually perform on your work.

  • Agent tooling, skills and context engineering
  • Model selection per task, not per hype cycle
  • Command policy and audit so agents stay safe

Local & private deployments

Drawings, bids and financials that cannot leave the building. We stand up local LLM stacks on your own hardware so the work stays inside your network, with no data going to a third party.

  • Runs on your hardware, on your network
  • No drawings or bid data sent to vendors
  • Same tooling as the cloud setups, air-gapped

How it goes

01

Discovery call

A free 30-minute walk of your shop or job site. We hear what is eating your week and tell you straight whether the assessment is worth booking.

02

Steel AI Assessment

One day inside your operation. We map your shop floor and job site workflows, the pain points, and who actually touches each step.

03

Solution design & build

We build the tool — or the environment — integrated with the systems you already use.

04

Deployment & training

We train your shop and field crews so it gets used after we leave, then support it as you scale.

Why us

One case study — ours.
And the code to prove it.

We do not collect testimonials. The one case study we publish is the steel contractor whose operations run on our software — named, countable, and checkable against public repositories.

01

Steel first, not steel-adjacent

We are not a general agency that took a construction client once. Takeoffs, RFIs, submittals, WIP schedules, signatory agreements — the domain is the point, and it is baked into everything above.

02

We ship, in public, constantly

Every product on this page is a repository you can open and read right now. You are not buying a pitch deck and hoping — you are looking at the actual work before you sign anything.

03

Your data can stay yours

Bids, drawings and financials are sensitive. When it matters, we deploy locally on your own hardware, so nothing leaves your network and no vendor sees your numbers.
