WHAT WE TAKE OFF YOUR PLATE

The repetitive work eating your team's week — running itself.

Follow-ups that never get dropped

Every customer, patient or lead gets the check-in, the reminder, the next step — automatically, on the channel they already use, written back into your records. Your people stay in charge; the system just never forgets.

Backed by Tediux — the patient-engagement loop at a multi-specialty hospital.

Answers from your own data — with the receipts

Ask in plain English; get the answer with the SQL attached, running inside your own cloud, every query logged. No black-box number you have to take on faith.

Backed by Uncypher — governed AI analyst, in your VPC, bring-your-own-LLM, audit-logged.

Operations wired into the systems you already run

We build inside your stack — your booking system, your database, your tools — then hand it over documented and yours. Not one more dashboard nobody opens.

Backed by the 14-day sprint model + write-back into your own systems.

Your data never leaves your walls

It runs in your environment, on your keys, encrypted where it counts. Nothing you own is used to train someone else's model.

Backed by onera.chat (client-side E2EE, BYO-key) + Uncypher (data stays in place).

WHO THIS IS FOR

You've probably felt exactly this.

Clinic & hospital ops

“Patients book once, then vanish — and my front desk is too buried to chase every follow-up, recall and no-show.”

“Now every patient gets followed up with, written back into our own system. Nobody's chasing at the desk, and no one slips through.”

Proof: Tediux

Fintech & lender ops

“My team waits days on the data team for basic numbers — and I can't pipe customer data into some outside AI tool without compliance shutting it down.”

“My ops managers ask in plain English and get the answer with the SQL attached — inside our own cloud, every query logged.”

Proof: Uncypher

D2C & services founders

“Customers go quiet after the first purchase and no one follows up — because the person who'd follow up is me, and I'm out of hours.”

“There's a teammate now that checks in after every order, wins back the ones going cold, and answers 'where's my order' without me.”

Proof: Tediux

PROOF OF WORK

Four products, live in the world.

These are our own products — built, shipped, and run by the same people who'd work on yours. No case-study theater: open any one and use the real thing.

Enterprise AI analyst

Uncypher

An AI data analyst for product and business-ops teams. It connects to where a company's data context actually lives — the warehouse, dbt, code repos, dashboards, Slack — and answers analytical questions with cited, auditable SQL instead of a black-box number. It runs inside your own VPC with your own LLM keys, so warehouse data never leaves your environment.

  • Answers with cited SQL — every query audit-logged
  • Runs in your VPC · bring your own LLM · data stays in place
  • Self-hostable via Docker Compose, network-isolated with allowlisted egress
  • Pins canonical metric definitions so one question stops returning three numbers

Open-source AI client

Conduit

The native Open WebUI client for iOS and Android — chat with your self-hosted AI from your phone. It closes the gaps where mobile usually breaks for self-hosted deployments: authentication (LDAP, JWT, SSO/OAuth, reverse-proxy flows), streaming stability, and share-to-prompt. No third-party analytics, no ads, no developer-operated backend relaying your data.

  • iOS 16+ and Android 7+ — live on the App Store & Google Play
  • Connects to your Open WebUI server, incl. reverse-proxy (Authelia, Authentik, Cloudflare Tunnel)
  • Open source (GPL-3.0), localized in 13 languages
  • WebSocket streaming, voice-call mode, home-screen widgets, iOS Shortcuts

AI care operations

Tediux

An AI operations platform for healthcare. It started with prescriptions — a single scan unlocks automated follow-ups, medicine schedules, patient profiles and stock forecasting — and now runs patient engagement end-to-end on WhatsApp: automated check-ins, health-status updates, and appointment booking, written back into the hospital's own systems.

  • The care loop: reach out → listen → reassure → arrange the next step → note it down
  • Runs on the channel your people already use — WhatsApp here, or SMS, in-app, a voice call
  • The AI reaches out and records; your clinicians decide — nothing clinical is automated
  • Written back into the hospital's own systems; deployed and in its second phase

Private AI chat

onera.chat

An end-to-end-encrypted AI chat app, designed so the server never sees plaintext: messages, prompts and API keys are encrypted on your device before they reach the server, which stores only encrypted blobs. Bring your own keys — chats route from the browser straight to the model provider, so keys never touch the server.

  • Client-side E2EE (libsodium); zero-knowledge server stores only encrypted blobs
  • Bring your own key across 9 providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, Mistral, xAI, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Ollama)
  • 3-share key management with passkey/WebAuthn unlock + BIP39 recovery
  • Open source (AGPL-3.0), cryptographic whitepaper at docs.onera.chat

THE TEAM

The unit that embeds with you.

Forward-deployed means the people who build your automation come to your problem — they don't wait for a spec to cross a contract boundary. A small unit embeds with your team, learns how your operation actually works, and builds against that reality, inside your own systems. It's the model Palantir invented for problems too messy to specify in advance. Not a tool thrown over the wall. Not an offshore ticket queue. Senior engineers who own the outcome — and are still there the day it goes live.

And these are the people who show up — not account managers, the builders. The engineer who authored Conduit (1.7k★, 10k+ installs). The team that built and runs Tediux inside a multi-specialty hospital. Engineers out of Microsoft (Azure Arc), Morningstar and MSCI, and a founder from Chatwoot (YC W21). The same hands that shipped four live products — and still operate them — are the ones that embed with you.

The person who built the product is the person who embeds with you.

HOW WE WORK

Three ways to start. Each one de-risks the next.

01start here

Ops Diagnostic

For you if —You know staff time is leaking — just not where

A 30-minute working session: we map the three workflows worth automating and what they cost you today. No deck, no obligation.

Timeline: 30 minutes · free

02

Ops Automation Sprint

For you if —One painful workflow, no team to fix it

Three workflows live in your stack in 14 days — integrated, documented, yours. Live by day 14 or we keep working free until it is.

Timeline: 14 days · fixed fee

03

Automation Care Retainer

For you if —It has to keep running without you chasing it

We monitor, fix and improve what we shipped — plus small changes every month. First month included with every sprint.

Timeline: Monthly · 3-month minimum

Fixed scope, fixed fee, agreed in writing before we start — scoped on the 30-minute call. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices. Platform & model fees run on your accounts; everything we build is yours.

You own everything — code, IP, infra, docs — from day one.

Working software every week — demos, not status decks.

Built for clean handoff — you can run it without us.

THE 14 DAYS

You'll know exactly where it stands, every day of it.

Most software projects go quiet and resurface late. This one has a clock on it, and you can see it move.

  1. Day 0

    The free 30 minutes

    We map your three costliest workflows and what they cost you today. No deck. You keep the map either way.

  2. Day 1–2

    Scope signed, access set up

    Fixed scope in writing, fixed fee, 50% to start. We plug into your systems — no rip-and-replace.

  3. Day 3–10

    We build. You watch.

    Working software every few days, not status decks. The loop goes live in a test lane first.

  4. Day 11–13

    Your team uses it for real

    Real customers, real messages, real edge cases. We fix what breaks, on our clock.

  5. Day 14

    Live — and it's yours

    Code, docs and handover walkthroughs transfer to you. Live by day 14, or we keep working free until it is.

  6. After

    It keeps running

    The Care Retainer: monitoring, fixes, two small changes a month. First month is included with the sprint.

Live by day 14 — or we keep working, free, until it is.

WHAT YOU'RE PROBABLY THINKING

The five questions we get asked — and the honest answers.

We tried an app before. Nobody used it.

That's the normal outcome, and it's not really an app problem — an app is a place people have to remember to visit. What we build reaches out instead: it reaches people where they already are — WhatsApp, SMS, or a call — and asks them one thing. Nothing to download, nothing to remember.

Why not just use Wati or AiSensy?

Sometimes we deploy on exactly those. What they don't ship is the part you're actually paying for: connecting to systems that have no connectors, writes that carry consequences — booking a real slot, updating a real record — the judgment about when a human must step in, and someone contractually on the hook when it misbehaves.

Who maintains it when you get busy?

It's in the contract, not in our good intentions: monitoring, quarterly fixes when things upstream change, a response window, and two small changes a month. There's also a channel-substitution clause — the same brain can fall back to SMS — so a platform policy change can't strand you.

Who actually builds it?

People who've done it at scale: infrastructure from Microsoft's Azure Arc, quant research from Morningstar and MSCI, messaging from Chatwoot (YC W21), and the author of an open-source AI client that tens of thousands of people run. You get a named delivery lead on your engagement and that bench behind them — with fixed scope and a fixed clock in writing. You own the code from day one, so you're never hostage to us.

Can you prove it will lift our numbers?

Not before we start, and we won't pretend otherwise. Nearly every statistic in this category is published by someone selling software. So we measure your baseline first, then measure again on your floor. If the number doesn't move, you'll be the first to know — that's the point of starting with one branch and a kill clause.
