We don’t just advise
on AI. We build it —
and run the compute.

Production-grade AI adoption for compute- and data-heavy organizations. The market is drowning in slideware. We are the partner that ships to production and runs the infrastructure underneath it — on-prem, in your cloud, or on ours.

Cost governance is a first-class citizen — not an afterthought

The GenAI divide

Almost everyone is piloting AI. Almost no one is shipping it.

The failure isn’t the models — it’s the gap between a demo and a governed, running system. Teams that stall are the ones that built alone or hired an advisory that stopped at the slide deck. The teams that win partnered with people who could take it all the way to production, and keep the compute bill from exploding once it got there.

That last part is where most AI shops go quiet. It’s where we start.

~95%

of enterprise GenAI pilots show no measurable P&L return.

Most AI advisories hand you a strategy deck and a bill. We hand you a running system with an eval gate — and we keep the compute humming underneath it.

The unfair advantage

Six things a generic AI consultant simply doesn’t have.

Not a longer feature list — a different category. Everything below comes from being an HPC company first, and an AI partner second.

01

We own the compute layer.

Most consultants stop at Bedrock and SageMaker app-glue. We go all the way down — AWS ParallelCluster, Slurm, GPU scheduling, fabric and storage — and, critically, to AI-compute cost, the line item enterprises fear most. When your inference bill is the thing that decides whether AI survives contact with finance, you want the partner who tunes the cluster, not just the prompt.

02

We ship it — and we run it. A closed loop.

Assess → build → run, on our own live platform. Not a deck; a running system behind an eval gate, with rollback if a check fails. We already do this in anger: we took a research group from a bare HPC cluster to a scientific simulation pipeline in production — the run exited clean, EXIT 0, on hardware we manage.

Hybrid on-prem + cloud, with data sovereignty by default.

We run managed on-prem HPC and cloud (PeakOps Eleven) — so your data can stay in your own data center or your own cloud account, never ours. Air-gapped where it must be. KVKK and EU AI Act awareness is built into how we scope, not bolted on at the end.

AWS Partner Network — credibility where it counts.

We’re an AWS Partner Network member — Registered Tier, and advancing — Technical and Sales Accredited, and an AWS Marketplace Seller. That means real co-sell reach and procurement paths that shorten the road from pilot to signed contract. AWS-native where AWS is the right answer, but never locked to the app layer, because we own the compute beneath it too.

Cost governance as a first-class capability.

Budgets, alerts and auto-pause — the same guardrails that run inside PeakOps Eleven today. We make AI spend predictable and defensible: a hard cap, an alert before you hit it, and an automatic stop so a runaway agent can’t quietly burn a quarter’s budget overnight. This is our signature.

A real scientific & engineering compute pedigree.

We come from HPC — molecular simulation, CFD, genomics, materials screening — not from building another chatbot. That means we’re fluent in the workloads where AI actually moves the needle for compute-heavy organizations, and we know what “correct” looks like when a wrong answer is expensive.

How we engage

A ladder, not a leap of faith.

Start small and fixed-fee. Climb only when the evidence says so. Most engagements begin with a two-week Readiness Sprint — a low-risk way to find out whether, and where, AI is worth it for you.

01AI/HPC Readiness Sprint
Fixed fee · ~2 weeks

The front door. A focused audit that tells you exactly where AI pays off — and what the compute will actually cost.

  • Compute + data audit
  • Ranked use-case shortlist
  • Reference architecture (ParallelCluster / Slurm / GPU)
  • AI-compute cost model
  • KVKK / EU AI Act risk flags
  • 90-day roadmap
02Pilot / PoC
Milestone-priced

One use case, built for real and measured against a gate — so the go/no-go is evidence, not a hunch.

  • A working, evaluated pilot
  • Eval harness + thresholds
  • Cost + latency benchmarks
  • Go / no-go memo
03Production build + run
Scoped per engagement

The winning pilot, hardened, integrated and deployed — then operated on PeakOps so it keeps working.

  • Deployed, integrated system
  • Run on PeakOps (on-prem / cloud)
  • Monitoring + eval in production
  • Cost governance: budgets, alerts, auto-pause
04Fractional AI Officer
Retainer · ongoing

Senior ownership on tap: someone who holds the roadmap, the governance and the spend so you don’t have to hire for it full-time.

  • Roadmap ownership
  • Cost + risk governance
  • Model & vendor strategy
  • Named engineer on an SLA

Pricing is scoped per engagement — the Readiness Sprint is a fixed fee, the pilot is milestone-priced, and production + retainer are quoted to your workload. Research & academic pricing available. Talk to us and we’ll scope it honestly.

The process

Assess. Prototype. Build. Run.

A closed loop with a gate in the middle — the discipline that separates the 5% who ship from the 95% who pilot forever.

01week 1–2
Assess

We map compute, data and use cases.

Two weeks to understand your workloads, data estate and constraints — and to rank where AI actually earns its keep. You leave with a reference architecture, a cost model and a 90-day roadmap.

02weeks 3–8
Prototype

We build one thing and gate it.

A working pilot on real data, measured against explicit thresholds — accuracy, latency, hallucination, cost per request. The gate decides whether it graduates. No gate, no promotion.

03weeks 8+
Build

We harden it for production.

Integration, security review, KVKK / EU AI Act alignment, and the eval harness wired into CI. Deployed on-prem, in your cloud account, or on PeakOps — your data stays where you want it.

04ongoing
Run

We operate and govern it.

Live monitoring, in-production evals to catch drift, and cost governance with budgets, alerts and auto-pause. Named engineers on an SLA — the same way we run HPC clusters today.

The layer nobody else touches

AI is only as good as the compute under it.

When a training run stalls or an inference fleet saturates, the answer isn’t a better prompt — it’s the scheduler, the fabric and the GPU topology. This is home turf for us. The same console our engineers use to run HPC clusters is where your AI workloads live too.

Why PeakOps

PeakOps vs a generic AI consultant.

The difference isn’t the pitch. It’s what still exists — and still runs — six months after the engagement ends.

AI adoption FAQ

The questions a serious buyer asks.

Straight answers on compute, cost, sovereignty and proof — no hand-waving, no hype.

App-layer GenAI shops are excellent at wiring Bedrock, agents and RAG together — and we do that too. The difference is the floor beneath it. We own the compute: ParallelCluster, Slurm, GPU scheduling and, above all, AI-compute cost. When your inference bill is what determines whether AI survives the next budget review, the partner who can tune the cluster and cap the spend is worth more than the one who can only tune the prompt.
