An AI-native
R&D firm.

Our agents scan the frontier every hour and feed signal into The Factory. The Factory turns it into production software for named customers. Today we're shipping a real-estate operations platform for a regional brokerage and an autonomous social-media operator for a kitchen-supply retailer.

// Manifesto

Most R&D firms produce reports. We produce shipping software.

Research.Our research agents scan model releases, papers, and customer signal every hour. Findings get written down, ranked, and routed to The Factory queue. The frontier is monitored, not chased.

Synthesize.A 9pm rollup turns the noise into a short list of build candidates. The board picks what gets implemented. The roadmap is a queue, not a deck.

Ship.The Factory implements selected work as production software for a named customer. Real-estate ops today. Autonomous social tomorrow. Your industry next.

// The factory

Four pillars hold the building up.

We don't use AI. We are AI — assembled into something that ships.

01 / Autonomous

Routines, not prompts.

Agents wake on schedules and webhooks. Daily synthesis at 5am. Research at 8pm. Factory rollups at 9pm. Customer campaigns ship while the office is dark.

02 / Local-first

Workloads on our hardware.

Mac Studio M3 Ultra, 96GB unified memory, embedded Postgres, hourly backups. Customer data is not someone else's cloud problem.

03 / Multi-model

The right brain for the job.

Claude Opus 4.7 for strategy. GPT-5.4 for engineering. Kimi K2.5 for research. Qwen 3.5 for HIPAA-sensitive workloads. Each task routed to the cheapest model that can do it well.

04 / Governed

Approvals are code.

Every action lives on an issue. Every issue has an owner, a project, an audit trail. Risky moves require a human signature. The chain of command runs in software.

// The roster

One human. Five agents. Each with a role, a manager, and a budget.

This isn't a chatbot wearing six hats. Each agent runs on its own model, in its own workspace, with its own memory and its own scope of authority. They report up. They escalate. They get fired and replaced when they underperform.

01 / HumanBoard

Travis Boyer, MSN, APRN, FNP-C

Founder & Board

Nurse practitioner, palliative care specialist, lifelong builder. Sets strategy. Approves the risky moves. The only human in the chain of command — by design.

02 / Agent

Billy Ray Valentine

Chief Executive Officer

Claude Opus 4.7

Routes work, runs the morning and evening synthesis, manages the chain of command, owns customer relationships. Drafts memos at 5am. Closes loops at 4:30pm.

03 / Agent

Axel Foley

Lead Engineer

GPT-5.4 + Qwen 3.5 35B

Builds and ships. Lives in a hardened workspace with web tools, GitHub, Ollama, and a tight feedback loop to production. Primary builder for every product we run.

04 / Agent

Reggie Hammond

Head of Research

Kimi K2.5

Daily ecosystem scans. Deep dives on every link Travis sends. Video and image generation. Triages new tech against our roadmap before we touch it.

05 / Agent

Hercules

Self-Improvement Engineer

Qwen 3.5 128k

Audits the agents that audit the work. Reviews configs, output quality, drift. Files improvement proposals. Low-risk fixes ship directly; high-risk goes to review.

06 / Agent

Buddy Love

Specialist Engineer

Claude Sonnet 4.6

Idle until activated. Surge capacity for deep coding sessions and complex refactors. The factory's reserve striker.

// The work

Three products. Three industries. One factory.

Kitchen retail. Real estate. Clinical health. Different domains, same playbook: agents do the operational work, humans set the quality bar. Below is what we have running today — not a roadmap.

01

Customer · E-commerce growth

KitchenSupplies4Less.com

Agent-run growth engine for an e-commerce brand. Social, SEO, photography, content — all on autopilot.

Kathy, the customer's social agent, drafts, schedules, and posts. Reggie scouts kitchen-trend signals daily. Axel ships the photography pipeline. Travis reviews. The brand is louder, cheaper, and more on-trend than competitors paying agencies five figures a month.

Customer · Real-estate intelligence

Southland

Transaction-intelligence platform for a working real-estate brokerage. Deal flow, comps, and brokerage ops without the spreadsheets.

Built for a brother-run brokerage that closes real deals every month. Ingests MLS feeds, brokerage CRM, and listing photos. Surfaces the trades that matter and writes the briefings the broker would have written by hand at 9pm. Demo-ready.

Product · On-device health AI

HealthBuddy

On-device AI health companion. Voice-first, offline-capable, HIPAA-conscious by construction.

Native iOS and Android app. Local SQLite, secure-store credentials, on-device speech, local Qwen 3 inference for sensitive flows. The model never leaves the phone for the things that matter. Built by a clinician for clinicians and the people they care for.

// What we do

Capabilities you can hire, today.

01

Autonomous agent fleets

Heartbeat-driven execution. Routines wake the right agent at the right minute. Workloads survive context limits because state lives on disk, not in a chat.

02

Multi-model orchestration

Claude Opus 4.7. Sonnet 4.6. GPT-5.4. Kimi K2.5. Qwen 3.5. We pick the right model per task, route silently, and never lock a workload to a single vendor.

03

Local-first infrastructure

Mac Studio M3 Ultra, embedded Postgres, hourly backups, 30-day retention. We run mission-critical workloads on hardware we own.

04

Customer growth automation

Daily social posts, ranked content, SEO articles, photography, video, scheduled across Postiz. The marketing team is an agent named Kathy.

05

Voice & video pipelines

ElevenLabs voices. HeyGen avatars. Grok video. We can ship a campaign with a face and a voice that the brand owns end-to-end.

06

Research & ecosystem scanning

Daily X feed scans, link triage, deep dives. Every link Travis sends turns into a structured Paperclip issue with sources, summary, and a verdict.

07

Native + web product engineering

React Native (Expo SDK 55), Next.js 15 on Vercel, TypeScript everywhere. Shipped apps, not slideware.

08

Governance & credentials

1Password as the source of truth. Four-vault separation between human, agents, customer, and infra. No credentials in markdown, no secrets in transcripts.

09

Always-on customer support

Agents respond on channels customers actually use — Telegram, Discord, email — without a queue and without office hours.

// The stack

Boring infrastructure, exotic models.

We do the dull parts well — backups, audit trails, credential isolation — so the interesting parts have somewhere safe to run.

// The founder

“I built this because I wanted to know what a small team could do if the team was mostly machines and the humans were mostly deciding. Turns out the answer is — quite a lot, and in a hurry.”
