AI-01
Find the wins
We map how you actually work and find where AI saves real time or money. A service-design background means we look at the whole journey, not the shiny demo. Impact first, tools second.
CONSULTING / AI
AI where it earns its place. Nowhere it doesn't.
We find where AI can speed up how your business runs, then wire it into the tools and flows you already use. Solutions consultancy with a service-design background, focused on the wins that matter, not theatre.
Trusted by teams at
We’re solutions consultants first, AI people second. A background in service design means we start with the whole journey, the people, the handoffs, the friction, and only reach for AI where it genuinely speeds you up or saves money. We’ll happily wire Claude, ChatGPT, or an agent into the tools you already run, and we’ll just as readily tell you when the honest answer is that you don’t need AI for this. No theatre, no bolt-ons, no setups that look impressive and do nothing.
And when we do build with AI, we still sweat the details. We use it to move faster, not as an excuse to ship sloppy, vibe-coded work like so much of what gets thrown together now.
What we do
AI-02
Speed up your processes
We wire AI into the workflows your team already runs, so the busywork shrinks and throughput goes up. Fewer manual steps, faster turnarounds.
AI-03
Work with your stack
Claude, ChatGPT, Claude routines, whatever you already run. AI in the flows your team lives in, not another tool to babysit.
AI-04
Agents, where they fit
We set up and integrate agents, Hermes, OpenClaw, or custom, but only where they carry real weight. Scoped, safe, and observable.
AI-05
Prove it, or don't ship it
Honest evals and measurement. If it won't move the needle, we say so. No theatre, no bolt-ons, no setups that look clever and quietly do nothing.
AI-06
Custom solutions
If nothing off the shelf fits how you work, we build it custom. Tools, integrations, and workflows shaped around your team, so the tech bends to you, not the other way around.
START HERE
One week. The AI moves actually worth making.
Everyone starts here. You tell us how the work really gets done, we map your tools, handoffs, and time sinks, then we sit down for half an hour and hand you the two or three places AI will pay off, with the first one scoped and ready to build. Free.
How it works.
- Step 01
- You walk us through how the work actually gets done
- Step 02
- We map your tools, handoffs, and time sinks
- Step 03
- A 30 minute call, your top wins, the first one scoped
- Cost
- Free. No retainer, no lock-in
ROADMAP
One roadmap: six stages to AI you actually own.
Map what you already have
-
Tool and subscription inventory
Every tool you pay for, mapped to the team that actually uses it.
-
Service blueprint
The whole journey: the people, the handoffs, and where the friction really sits.
-
Time sinks
The repetitive work quietly eating hours every week.
Find the wins worth chasing
-
Impact ranking
Opportunities scored on time or money saved, not on novelty.
-
The honest no
Where AI won't help, we say so and point at the simpler fix.
-
One clear starting point
A single wedge we can prove quickly, scoped and costed.
Prove it on real work
-
Working prototype
Not a demo on sample data. Your data, your workflow, your team.
-
Evals from day one
We measure it against the way you work today, honestly.
-
Kill criteria
Agreed up front. If it doesn't move the needle, it doesn't ship.
Wire it into your stack
-
Into the tools you already run
Claude, ChatGPT, Claude routines, your existing systems. Not another tool to babysit.
-
Fits your process
The work lands where your team already looks, in the flow they already have.
-
Guardrails
Scoped permissions, human checkpoints, and a clear audit trail.
Hand off the repetitive work
-
Scoped agents
Hermes, OpenClaw, or custom, set loose only where they carry real weight.
-
Observable by default
You can see what ran, why, and what it changed.
-
Escalation paths
When an agent is unsure, a human gets it. Every time.
You own it, not us
-
Documented and handed over
Prompts, workflows, and decisions written down in plain language.
-
Your team can run it
We train the people who will live with it after we leave.
-
Stay on, or don't
Keep us for the next stage or take it from here. Your call.
PROCESS
How we work
-
01 Map the service
We map the whole flow, the people, the handoffs, the friction, before anyone mentions a model.
-
02 Find where it matters
We rank opportunities by real impact, not novelty. Often the fix is small. Sometimes it's an agent.
-
03 Wire it into your flow
We integrate AI into the tools you already use, so it fits how your team actually works day to day.
-
04 Prove it or kill it
Honest evals and measurement. If it doesn't earn its place in production, it doesn't ship.
TESTIMONIALS
What clients say
Mania came in, understood the product fast, and gave Loadout the clarity it needed. The work felt sharp, practical, and immediately usable.
Working with Mania was unlike any agency experience I've had. They move fast, communicate clearly, and the output is consistently exceptional.
Kosta built our design system from the ground up. It's now the foundation our entire product team ships from every day.
They took a genuinely complicated product brief and turned it into something our users actually love. The craft here is remarkable.
