Before you build, know what's worth building.
The consulting side of Faction: structured assessments, the one-day hackathon, standing support, and fractional leadership. Every lane produces a written deliverable you can act on, scoped in conversation and priced to the engagement.
Book a callAssess. Support. Lead.
The building happens in the AIDE services and the AIOS flagship. This page is everything that surrounds the build: deciding what to build, keeping it healthy, and putting senior leadership in the room.
The assessment ladder
Five tiers from a free roundtable to an enterprise-wide evaluation, each a complete assessment with a written deliverable. Clarity before capital.
Lane 02 · SupportSupport modules & bolt-ons
The belt as standing capacity: fixed support modules, a Forward Operating Engineer, penetration testing, and SOC 2 evidence packages. No retainer, no idle hours.
Fractional leadership
Embedded fractional COO, CPO, or technical leadership for founder-led platforms that need senior operators without the full-time hire. How our healthcare platform client answered her board's security questions.
Five tiers. Right-sized to your moment.
Most companies don't need an enterprise-wide AI strategy on day one. Start with a free conversation and move up as your readiness grows. Every tier above the roundtable is quoted at scoping, sized to your organization.
CEO Roundtable
A no-commitment conversation about where AI fits in your business. We listen, share what we've seen work, and give you an honest read on whether you're ready.
AI Readiness Scan
A structured review of your stack, workflows, and team. You get a readiness scorecard and a prioritized opportunity map, ranked by return and complexity.
Focused Use Case Assessment
Deep-dive into your top two or three AI opportunities: prototyped approach, return model, dependencies, and a build-ready spec for each.
Department Assessment
End-to-end assessment of one department: workflow analysis, tool audit, skill gaps, change plan, and a phased AI roadmap with build estimates.
Enterprise-Wide Evaluation
Cross-departmental strategy: executive alignment, governance framework, vendor landscape, build-vs-buy analysis, and a multi-year implementation roadmap.
One day. Your team. Five or more ranked AI use cases.
A facilitated on-site sprint for 8 to 25 of your people. This is the data-extraction discipline from our methodology, run as a day: real problems surfaced, scored on a four-dimension framework, prototyped live, and handed to leadership as an executive readout. Flat fee, quoted when you book; most clients book four to six weeks out.
You walk away with a prioritized idea backlog, feasibility scorecards, live prototypes, build estimates, and a leadership team that agrees on what's next. The winning use cases have a build path: a Prototype for single automations, or the Belt for continuous delivery.
Support without the retainer
Everything delivered stays supported the same way it was built: in fixed modules with acceptance evidence, bought when needed. These bolt-ons are scoped into any SOW.
Support Modules
Fixed 40-hour modules for fixes, features, and hardening on anything we've shipped or audited. No monthly minimums, no idle hours billed, every module scoped and accepted.
Forward Operating Engineer
A Faction engineer embedded with your team: fractional, full-time, on-site, or remote. Production monitoring across every deployed agent and service rides along.
Penetration Testing
Burp Suite and OWASP adversarial testing against your live surfaces, with findings mapped straight onto the 13-layer standard.
SOC 2 Evidence Package
Documentation and evidence collection for the audits your enterprise partners require, built on the universal audit logging every Faction platform ships with.
Four countries, three continents, one method
Active engagements currently span the United States, Mexico, Kuwait, and Oman, every one delivered module by module with acceptance evidence. The method travels because the evidence does.
