AI models & platforms
Select models by task quality, latency, cost, deployment constraints, data terms, and the ability to evaluate change.
Technology choices should follow the workflow, quality bar, operating environment, risk, and the systems already responsible for the work.
Connect, ground, evaluate, and observe.Select models by task quality, latency, cost, deployment constraints, data terms, and the ability to evaluate change.
Fit deployment, identity, networking, reliability, and operational ownership to the organization’s environment.
Connect governed structured and unstructured information with clear ownership, access, freshness, and traceability.
Use maintainable product and service architecture that supports testing, iteration, and clear user experiences.
Connect systems through stable interfaces, events, adapters, permissions, retries, and observable failure handling.
Separate deterministic rules, AI interpretation, approvals, exceptions, and systems-of-record updates.
Monitor task success, unsupported output, user correction, latency, cost, adoption, and model or workflow changes.
Keep business workflows and product behavior separable from a specific provider where practical.
Apply identity and authorization to the information retrieved and the actions available.
Make source use, model behavior, integration failure, retries, and cost visible.
Evaluate model, prompt, retrieval, data, and workflow versions against representative scenarios.
Let’s map the shortest responsible path from operational friction to measurable value.
