How We Work

From business problem to production AI.

From business problem to production AI.

Strategy, product thinking, architecture and engineering in one team. The first step is small, scoped and priced.

The Six Steps

Discover, Architect, Accelerate, Build, Govern, Scale.

01

Discover

Find the decision or workflow where AI adds real value; map systems, data and security requirements.

02

Architect

Decide what runs deterministic, agentic or model-driven, and where humans stay in control.

03

Accelerate

Reuse the seven components and vertical playbooks to shorten the build.

04

Build

Configure, integrate and engineer the applications, agents, data layer and workflows.

05

Govern

Security, observability, approval gates, access controls and auditability built in.

06

Scale

Extend the first use case into a reusable capability for more workflows and business units.

Engagement Model

Three phases, so you always know what you are committing to.

Phase 1 · 4 to 8 weeks

Private AI Assessment

Workflow walkthroughs with your experts; data inventory and residency review

Target workflow with human gates, model strategy and architecture

Working prototype on a sample of your data

Assessment report and blueprint you own, usable with any vendor

Fixed-price build proposal with a go-live date

Fixed fee, credited against the build if you proceed within 90 days.

Phase 2 · 4 to 7 months

Custom Private AI Build

Private environment set up within weeks

Deterministic engines and agents on the platform

Your documents, rules and history loaded into context packs

Human gates, audit diary and dashboards; UAT with your professionals

Source code and models delivered at acceptance

Fixed price, set after the assessment.

Phase 3 · Ongoing, 12-month minimum

Operate & Improve

Managed private environment, monitoring and support with a named lead

Model updates without re-platforming

Every confirm or dismiss becomes labeled data unique to you

Quarterly roadmap for the next workflow and vertical

Monthly platform and support fee. Service levels; transition assistance at exit.

If your problem is data rather than a workflow, begin with a Data Audit, either instead of or before the Private AI Assessment.

Ownership

What you own and what we retain.

Stage

What you own

What 0DB retains

Assessment

Report, blueprint and prototype findings.

Reusable methods.

Build

Your data, fine-tuned models, application-specific code and configuration.

Platform components and reusable capability IP, licensed for the life of the deployment.

Operate

All data, models and labeled feedback generated in operation.

Platform improvements.

Why Months, Not Years

A large share of the work already exists.

A typical in-house or integrator build of one expert workflow with private deployment takes 12 to 24 months. On 0DB it takes four to seven months, because the harness, the seven components and the vertical playbook already exist.

Start with a fixed-scope assessment.

Four to eight weeks with a named team. It produces a blueprint you own and can take to any vendor, and the fee is credited against the build if you proceed within 90 days.
