How we work

Research

We analyze public federal datasets and publish interactive reports with real methodology. All data from real sources, all code open.

Build

We ship production software that solves real problems. Grant matching, invoice extraction, accessibility scanning, government contract intelligence.

Consult

We help companies adopt AI, build analytics systems, and make better decisions with data. From strategy to hands-on implementation.

Built by a practitioner, not a consultancy

15 years of enterprise data work at Home Depot, MRM, Merkle, and PLI. Now building production AI products and publishing original data research independently.

The combination of enterprise depth and builder mentality means the work is practical, not theoretical. Everything ships.
