Worked with

Problems we solve

Is your team buried in repetitive questions and tasks?

Many teams spend hours on work that follows clear patterns: answering the same questions, qualifying enquiries, reading documents and copying data between systems.

  1. 01

    Enquiries waiting for replies

    Leads arrive at night and on weekends, and the fastest competitor wins them.

  2. 02

    Repetitive questions

    Support and sales teams answer the same questions about products, policies and status every day.

  3. 03

    Documents read by hand

    Invoices, forms, contracts and applications are read and typed into systems one by one.

  4. 04

    AI pilots that never shipped

    A chatbot demo looked impressive, but it made things up, couldn't use your data and was never trusted in production.

Our solution

AI agents grounded in your data and connected to your tools

We build agents that know your business, act through your systems, and know when to hand over to a person.

  • Grounded, not guessing

    Agents answer from your approved content and data, cite their sources and say when they don't know.

  • Connected to your systems

    Agents use tools: they look up orders, check calendars, create CRM leads and update records through secure APIs.

  • Safe by design

    Guardrails, permission limits, personal-data protection, human review for sensitive actions and full logs of what the agent did.

Common AI problems

Why AI chatbots fail, and how we avoid it

These are common reasons AI projects disappoint, and what we do differently.

  • Made-up answers

    What you notice
    The bot confidently answers with information that isn't true.
    How we fix it
    Answers grounded in approved sources, with citations and an 'I don't know' path.
  • No access to real data

    What you notice
    The bot can talk but can't check an order or book a call.
    How we fix it
    Secure tool access to your systems through APIs.
  • Unclear success

    What you notice
    Nobody can say whether the AI is helping.
    How we fix it
    Defined metrics and evaluation sets from the start.
  • Runaway costs

    What you notice
    Usage bills grow faster than value.
    How we fix it
    Model choice, caching, limits and cost monitoring.
  • Privacy concerns

    What you notice
    Personal or confidential data is sent where it shouldn't be.
    How we fix it
    Data minimisation, redaction and clear retention rules.
  • No human fallback

    What you notice
    Customers get stuck in loops with no way to reach a person.

Guide

AI agents for business: a practical guide

What is an AI agent?

An AI agent is software that uses a large language model to understand a request, decide what to do, and take actions through tools, such as searching a knowledge base, checking a calendar or updating a CRM, to complete a task.

A chatbot mainly answers questions. An agent can also act. Many business systems use both: a chat interface backed by agent capabilities.

Good first use cases

Good first agents handle frequent, well-defined tasks where mistakes are easy to catch: answering common questions from approved content, qualifying enquiries, extracting data from documents, and drafting replies for review.

Avoid starting with tasks where an error is costly and hard to detect.

Keeping AI accurate

Ground answers in your own approved content using retrieval, ask the model to cite sources, and give it a clear way to say it doesn't know. Test against a set of real examples before and after every change.

Accuracy is measured, not assumed.

Privacy and data protection

Decide what data the agent may see, minimise personal data sent to models, redact where possible, and set retention rules. Choose model providers and hosting that match your data obligations.

Tell users when they are talking to AI, and how their data is used.

Controlling cost

Model costs depend on usage and model choice. Use smaller models for simple steps, cache repeated work, set limits per user or task, and monitor spending.

Measure the value of each agent against its running cost.

Agents that take actions safely

An agent becomes truly useful when it can do things, such as create a CRM lead, book an appointment or check an order. Each action should use a defined, limited tool with clear permissions, rather than open access to your systems.

For actions with real consequences, such as refunds or changes to orders, a person should approve before the agent proceeds.

Testing and evaluating an agent

Before launch, test the agent against a set of real questions and expected answers, including tricky and out-of-scope ones. Track accuracy, hand-off rates and failures, and repeat the tests whenever prompts, content or models change.

After launch, review real conversations regularly. They show where answers are wrong, where content is missing and where customers get stuck.

Hindi, Hinglish and regional languages

Customers in India often write in Hindi, Hinglish or regional languages, sometimes mixing scripts. Modern models handle many of these well, but test with real messages from your customers rather than assuming.

Decide which languages the agent should reply in, and keep approved content available in those languages where accuracy matters.

Starting small and expanding

Start with one well-defined job, such as answering product questions or qualifying leads, and measure it. Once it works reliably, add more tools, channels and tasks.

This approach keeps risk low and shows clear value early, which makes it easier to decide where to invest next.

What affects the cost of AI agent development

Costs depend on the number of tasks and channels, integrations with your systems, knowledge sources, guardrails and review flows, evaluation effort, model usage and ongoing support.

We don't publish fixed prices or packages. After a strategy call, we send a written proposal with a customised quotation.

Before you talk to us

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between an AI agent and a chatbot?

A chatbot mainly answers questions. An AI agent can also take actions through tools, such as booking calls or updating records, to complete tasks.

Can the agent use our own data?

Yes. Agents answer from your approved content and data, and use your systems through secure APIs.

How do you stop the AI making things up?

We ground answers in approved sources, ask for citations, test against real examples and give the agent a clear path to say it doesn't know or hand over to a person.

Can it work on WhatsApp?

Yes. Agents can work on WhatsApp through the WhatsApp Business API, as well as on your website and apps.

Is our data safe?

We minimise and protect personal data, set retention rules and choose model providers and hosting that fit your obligations.

Will customers be able to reach a person?

Yes. Hand-off rules pass the conversation to your team with full context.

Which AI models do you use?

We choose per use case, including models from OpenAI and Anthropic and open-source models, based on accuracy, cost and privacy needs.

Can you add AI features to our product?

Yes. We add assistants, smart search, summaries and drafting to SaaS products and apps.

Can the agent book appointments?

Yes, by connecting to your calendar or booking system with clear rules and limits.

Can the agent understand Hinglish?

Often, yes. We test with real customer messages in the languages you need before launch.

Can we review what the agent said?

Yes. Conversations are logged so your team can review answers and improve the agent.

How much does AI agent development cost?

It depends on tasks, channels, integrations, guardrails and usage. We do not publish fixed prices; share your use case and we will send a customised quotation.
