AI Pilots · Federal & Commercial

See AI work for you before you fund it.

Products in weeks, not months — at the true cost of today’s technology, with AI you can measure, trust, and keep accountable.

The economics

Why you’re paying so much for technology, even when you bought AI.

Buy AI from a company that isn’t AI-native and you pay for more than the product. You pay for their layers of people, and you pay for them to learn AI on your project.

With us the parts you’d normally fund line by line are out of the box: model governance, model selection and cost monitoring, accessibility, your industry’s compliance. What’s left is what the computing actually costs.

What our competition sells

Most AI is a demo. Ours runs.

Three ways the impressive demo never reaches production —
and the one kind of system that does.

Coa's answer

Coa

A better kind of off-the-shelf — built lean, proven in production, fit to the work.

Our pilots run on your data and your rules, in a production-like environment — closer to a live system than a slide.

Traditional models
Strike 01

Vaporware demos

Impressive on a stage, on the vendor's data. In production — on yours — there's nothing there.

Strike 02

Low-code ceiling

Climbs fast, then flattens. The hard last 20% — the edge cases, the integration — stays out of reach.

Strike 03

Off-the-shelf misfit

Unchanged, the generic tool doesn't fit the work — and drags a legacy tail and change-management cost.

02How a pilot works

Watch one get built.

Six steps — the models weighed, the guardrails set, the numbers measured. Each one shows the actual system taking shape, so by the end you decide with evidence, not a promise.

Step 01 / 06

  1. 01 Scope Pick one real workflow, set a measured target, and agree the guardrails up front.
  2. 02 Model selection We bake off several models on your own data and pick the best on quality, cost, and speed.
  3. 03 Governance Every AI output runs a live guardrail chain; anything that fails a gate is held, and every step is recorded for audit.
  4. 04 Design and build We wire a real retrieval pipeline on your own data — index, tools, evals, and a human check.
  5. 05 Test Score the pilot on the numbers a serious buyer actually asks for — outcome, grounding, and human agreement, not just accuracy.
  6. 06 Decide You see the numbers, then choose one of three honest next steps — including walking away with a documented system.

01What we build · Integration & scale

Built for integration and scale.

One pipeline, end to end: your data → a model → enterprise guardrails → a person → grounded output. Integrated into the systems you already run, and scaled on your own cloud.

  • Guardrails on input and output

    Every prompt AND every response is screened — contextual grounding, prompt-attack detection, PII filters — independent of which model runs.

  • Enterprise scale, your environment

    Runs on a managed model, your own, or self-hosted (AWS GovCloud, on-prem, or an enclave). Your data stays inside your boundary.

  • Integrates with what you have

    Vendor-neutral ports plus a typed API drive live integration and bulk migration.

02What we build · Accountability

Accountable and traceable.

Every AI output is a proposal a person accepts, edits, or rejects — and everything is on the record. This is how we measure accuracy and run governance and reporting inside Adjudicate.

  • Golden evaluation sets

    Per release

    Curated cases with known-correct answers; every model or prompt change is re-scored against them. Regressions surface before release, not in production.

    WatchesCorrectness vs. known-good answers

  • Contextual grounding + citation check

    Per response

    Every answer is scored against its retrieved source, and every citation is checked against the record. Unsupported output is flagged or blocked before anyone relies on it.

    WatchesIs each output supported by its cited source?

  • Scaled dry-run / diff

    Per change

    A change runs across many cases in read-only mode and shows up as a before→after diff — you see exactly what it would do before it touches live work.

    WatchesWhat a change would do, before it applies

  • Human acceptance telemetry

    Continuous

    Accept, edit, and reject rates, tracked per feature and per reviewer. Rising edits flag a model that needs attention; suspiciously few flag rubber-stamping.

    WatchesAccept / edit / override rates (over- and under-trust)

  • Drift & quality monitoring

    Continuous

    Inputs and outputs are watched for drift from the validated baseline, and an alarm fires the moment a metric crosses its threshold.

    WatchesDrift & quality degradation vs. baseline

  • Red-team / adversarial testing

    Per release

    Prompt injection, jailbreaks, and edge cases, thrown at the system on purpose — we find the failure modes before real inputs or bad actors do.

    WatchesPrompt injection & failure modes

On the record

Every model invocation is written to an append-only record — the model, its confidence, the timestamp, and the person's action — reversible and reconstructable after the fact. Outcomes roll up by issue type, so an organization can track its accuracy over time and steadily raise its own standard.

03What we build · Failure modes

How we contain failure modes.

Each known failure mode has a named control. A person reviews every output before it takes effect. Grounding proves an answer is supported by the record; the judgment stays with the reviewer.

Hallucination / fabricated facts OWASP LLM09 · NIST MEASURE

ControlA contextual grounding check scores grounding and relevance against the source on a configurable 0–0.99 threshold and blocks answers the source does not support; every answer must carry citations.

In our productsEvery output is grounded to page-level source chips, and nothing becomes final until a reviewer accepts it. The legal conclusion rests with the adjudicator and is measured against known-correct outcomes in evaluation, never assumed from a fluent answer.

Prompt injection / jailbreak OWASP LLM01

ControlPrompt-attack detection runs on both input and output, the guardrails apply independently of which model is used, and tools are granted only least-privilege scopes.

In our productsThe AI has no autonomous authority, so an injected instruction can only propose something for a person to review rather than carry it out. Isolating each case keeps any damage contained to that one case.

Sensitive-data / PII disclosure OWASP LLM02

ControlPII is detected and masked in the model’s input and output, with data encrypted in transit and at rest and the case kept inside the deployment’s account and region.

In our productsRetrieval is scoped to the case in front of the reviewer and customer data is never used to train or fine-tune a shared model; for strict regimes a self-hosted or GovCloud option keeps it inside your own boundary.

Overreliance / automation bias OWASP LLM09 · NIST MANAGE

ControlEach proposal leads with its evidence and a confidence so the reviewer engages with the basis, and accept / edit / override rates are monitored so rubber-stamping is detectable.

In our productsThe reviewer decides on the evidence, not the suggestion. An unusually low edit-or-override rate flags possible over-trust and triggers review, rather than assuming the human caught everything.

Excessive agency OWASP LLM06

ControlLeast-privilege permissions, narrowly scoped tools, and explicit human approval before any outbound action.

In our productsThe AI proposes tasks and a person executes them, so every outbound action waits on a reviewer’s explicit approval.

Bias / inconsistent outcomes NIST MEASURE (bias)

ControlSupports disparate-impact testing across cohorts via cohort-stratified evaluation and golden sets, with fairness metrics and periodic equity audits configured per deployment.

In our productsRules are applied consistently and tested via scaled dry-run before they take effect; outcomes can be analyzed for disparate impact across cohorts, and equity is measured on outcomes, not inferred from a feature-importance chart.

Model / data drift & degradation NIST MEASURE → MANAGE

ControlLLM output quality and drift are tracked by the evaluation harness and reviewer acceptance; tabular and feature drift by Model Monitor, with alarms on degradation.

In our productsContinuous monitoring runs alongside an evaluation harness on every change, and a scaled dry-run runs before any rollout reaches live work.

Supply chain / model provenance OWASP LLM03

ControlModels come from a vetted, managed catalog with known provenance, and dependencies and artifacts are reviewed.

In our productsThe model is a configuration choice drawn from vetted providers, our engineers own every line of code, and a security review runs in the pipeline on every change.

Improper output handling OWASP LLM05

ControlEvery model output is treated as untrusted: generated content is validated and never auto-executed.

In our productsOutputs arrive as proposals rendered as reviewable data rather than executed actions, and their citations are verified against the record.

Unbounded consumption / cost & DoS OWASP LLM10

ControlRate limits, per-tenant quotas, and throughput controls cap usage, and alarms fire on abnormal demand.

In our productsPer-tenant quotas and continuous monitoring cap usage, and abnormal demand trips an alarm before it becomes an incident.
