41.87° N  /  80.79° W  ·  ASHTABULA COUNTY, OHIO

Ohio's largest county
is a technology desert.
We moved in.

No vendor was ever going to modernize a county this size — the economics don't work, so nobody shows up. We stopped waiting for the economics. We committed our own engineers, our own compute, and our own money to build the software first, hand it over, and argue about the invoice later.

The work

We start where the gap is widest.

One township had no way for a resident to check what their land is zoned for without calling the office during business hours. We built the lookup, wired it to the real zoning record, and put it online. It runs today.

Before
Call the office. Weekdays only. Hope someone picks up. No map, no parcel lookup, no permitted-use list, nothing online at all.
Now
Ask in plain language, any hour. Answers grounded in the township's own adopted zoning text — with the citation shown, and a path to a real human when the answer needs one.

Built to be handed over.

Every product is researched against the real organization it's for — its actual services, its actual constraints, its actual language. Not a template with a logo dropped in. When a claim can't be verified, it doesn't ship.

That discipline is the product. Anyone can generate a website now. Very few people can generate one that is true.

The model

Built first. Billed later. Sometimes never.

A hybrid, subsidized model — unusual on purpose, because the usual one doesn't reach a county like this one.

01 / BUILT

We front the work

Research, design, and engineering happen before any invoice exists. No discovery retainer, no proposal cycle, no procurement theater. The thing gets built.

02 / GIVEN

Small operators keep it

A three-truck contractor or a township office doesn't get billed into the ground for software that already exists. If it helps them, they can have it.

03 / FUNDED

Institutions fund the capability

Cities, county agencies, and large local employers pay for the engineering capability itself — the part that's genuinely hard. That surplus is what makes the rest free.

Engineering

The unglamorous part we take seriously.

AI in production is mostly plumbing, provenance, and refusing to ship things you can't verify. Here's how ours is actually put together.

One gateway
Every model call routes through three server-side primitives — language, image, speech. Products own their prompts and schemas; nothing about a product leaks into shared infrastructure.
Zero browser keys
No credential has ever shipped in a client bundle. Providers are swappable behind the gateway without touching a single product.
Model-agnostic
Models are routed across vision, text, and speech workloads. Routing is a configuration decision, not an architectural one.
Tracked mechanics
Every product carries a machine-checked record of its AI calls, contracts, workflows, dependencies, and success criteria. Drift is caught by tooling, not memory.
Real automation
Production workflow automation behind the civic tools — ingest, query, and request routing — not demo stubs.
Evidence gates
Research, brand, build, and verification are separate gates. Nothing advances on a claim; it advances on evidence a reviewer actually opened.
Contact

If you run something here, talk to us.

Cities, county offices, and large local employers: we'd like to show you what's already built for your area. Everyone else: if one of these would help you, ask.

Goes straight to the people who build the software. No CRM, no drip sequence.
