The builder with proof and no pipeline
You have real systems live and you are tired of finding the next client. We bring scoped engagements; you keep building.
For experts and firms
Steady engagements with business owners who have already been scoped and are ready to start. We negotiate your rate with the client before the match starts, and they pay you directly. No fee to apply or to join. We are building the network now and opening in cohorts.
One live system is the entry ticket. We are building the network now and opening in cohorts.
We built the network around the thing good implementers hate most: selling. You build. We do the rest.
The bar
Not a certificate. Not a course. Not a demo you made for yourself. One system, running in someone else's company, that you can show us and we can call about.
We place teams for Build it engagements and trainers for Teach it. If you are a consulting company, a dev shop, or a training partner, this is how you get in. Here is what we check and what you get.
What we look for in a firm
What firms get
Pick "We are a firm" on the application. We review Tuesdays and Fridays.
The shape is the same every time, so you can plan your week around it.
The owner has been on a free 20-minute scoping call with a practitioner. You see the business, the bottleneck, the tools, the hours, and the budget before you say yes.
You meet the owner and start on the scoped problem. The client pays us nothing for the first 14 days. Trial terms for your time are agreed with you before the match starts.
If the client continues past day 14, you work at the rate we negotiated and they pay you directly. A commission to us, less than 10% of the first-year engagement, applies only then.
Three profiles we are built for. If you recognize yourself, apply.

You owned AI end to end somewhere and want to do it for two or three owners at once as a fractional head of AI.
Support AI, data and knowledge, LLM engineering, enablement, security. You go deep in one of the twelve roles and want clients who need exactly that.
By the client, directly, at the rate we negotiate with them before the match. There is no fee to apply or to join. A commission of less than 10% of the first-year engagement applies only if a client hires you, and we agree it with you before the match. Trial terms for your time are agreed with you before each match.
Yes. The network is not exclusive. We ask that you do not take an AI Expert Hire client direct, which is standard and is in the agreement.
Say so early. The client is rematched at no cost to them and you go back into the pool for the next scoped engagement. A pass is not a strike. Underperformance on a trial is treated differently; see the removal policy on the vetting page.
About an hour if you already have the Loom and the screen recording. We review Tuesdays and Fridays. If the proof holds, we reply and you move to the skills test. We are building the network now and opening in cohorts.
One live system. A short Loom. A business we can call.
