For corporate innovation teams
We work as an external R&D team for corporate ventures: functional proof-of-concept prototypes in 3-6 week cycles, with the documentation and data your stakeholders need for a go/no-go decision.
01 - The situation
02 - What we offer
01
Proof of concept development for one venture idea: a working prototype, built in a 3-6 week cycle.
We take one idea, define what would prove or disprove it, and build a functional prototype that real users can touch - not a clickable mockup.
A demo for your stakeholders, user feedback, an architecture document, and a clear recommendation: scale it or stop it.
02
Modernization or AI proof-of-concept pilots that run next to your existing systems without touching them.
We build the pilot in parallel to your current stack, integrate read-only where possible, and design the migration path only after the pilot proves itself.
Real-world results without risk to core operations - and a tested migration plan instead of a big-bang rewrite proposal.
03
A standing external team for innovation portfolios with more ideas than bandwidth.
We run multiple experiments per quarter for your innovation unit, with shared learnings and consistent reporting across all of them.
A predictable pipeline of validated (and invalidated) concepts, without hiring a lab's worth of engineers.
03 - The cycle
Hypothesis. A sharp question, scoped to a 3-6 week budget.
We define the riskiest assumption of the venture and what evidence would settle it.
3-6 weeks of rapid software prototyping. Weekly demos, so there are no surprises at the end.
The prototype meets real users. We collect usage data and feedback, and assess technical feasibility.
A written go/no-go recommendation with the data, architecture, and scaling plan to back it.
04 - Proof
Real engagements with clients in a similar situation - what they needed, how the engagement ran, and what they walked away with.
Circular economy, metal recycling, industrial decommissioning
A small team, three months, from blank repository to a working multi-tenant traceability platform for industrial decommissioning: one shared record per project, custody events for every material hand-off, and a cryptographically chained audit trail.

How a workshop-first engagement gave a European factory network a grounded answer to where AI actually pays off - a prioritized use case shortlist, a roadmap ready for stakeholder approval, and one proof of concept specified for immediate implementation.
