Who It's For
Building AI features fast without the cost and delay of a full in-house AI hire. Get a vetted Tier-1 engineer embedded in 48 hours — not 3 months.
Your team has direction but needs specialist AI execution. We slot in without friction, Engagement Manager included.
Want reliable AI delivery without managing freelancers, agencies, or offshore vendors. One point of contact. Sprint-gated outcomes.
How It Works
Fill a 5-minute intake form. A Delivery Lead contacts you within 24 hours to scope your requirements, preferred stack, and timeline.
We surface a curated shortlist of Tier-1 AI engineers matched to your domain. You meet, align on sprint goals, and sign off on a milestone plan.
Your engineer works in focused sprints. A Engagement Manager audits every milestone output. You get working, production-ready AI — not decks, not promises.
What's Included
Every builder passes a rigorous 5-stage technical vetting — coding, system design, AI depth, and live delivery simulation.
A senior Kovil AI lead audits every milestone before it reaches you. No surprises, no silent drift.
Work happens in structured weekly sprints with clear deliverables. Not open-ended hours billed to a ticket queue.
We match your builder to overlap with your core working hours — real-time collaboration, not async delays.
View sprint goals, completed work, and upcoming milestones in one place. Full visibility at all times.
Builders specialise across LLMs, RAG pipelines, voice AI, agent frameworks, and MLOps — not generalist developers.
What to Expect
Fill a 5-minute intake form. A Delivery Lead calls you within 24 hours to scope requirements, preferred stack, and timeline.
We surface 2–3 hand-picked engineers matched to your domain. You review profiles, join intro calls, and choose your fit.
You and your engineer agree a sprint plan — clear deliverables, timelines, and success criteria — before any work begins.
Your engineer works in focused sprints. Your Engagement Manager audits every output. You review at each milestone checkpoint.
Add engineers, extend sprints, or wind down — no lock-in. You stay because it's working, not because you're contracted.
