Technology strategy · AI artifacts
A portfolio of 25 AI artifacts that turn the architecture, economics, governance, and adoption decisions behind enterprise AI into tools that actually run. Strategy you can open, pressure-test, and take into the boardroom.

Inspect how I connect architecture, investment, governance, and people decisions. Each working artifact exposes its model, assumptions, and tradeoffs so you can evaluate the judgment behind it.
Five decisions. Inspectable evidence.
Open a case, change an assumption, and see why the recommendation holds or changes. The other 20 artifacts show the wider range.

Is multiagent worth the extra cost, or a party trick?
Which initiatives to kill, scale, or hold this quarter?
What's the payback, and how fragile is it?
Are the people ready, or just the model?
Find the right instrument
Search by the decision you need to make. Every artifact shows its execution mode and exposes its assumptions.
FRAME → DATA → BUILD(RAG) → DEPLOY → GOVERN & REALIZE, gated.
Open the instrumentScore faithfulness/citations/hallucination before trusting a RAG build.
Open the instrumentScore every guideline, resolve duplicates and stale versions, confirm topics, and measure the retrieval-quality effect of the cleanup, before Build ingests a single chunk.
Open the instrumentRisk tier a use case; map required guardrails.
Open the instrumentRetrain / reindex / rollback / rescope, triggered by the right signal, the loop back to Frame.
Open the instrumentExpose N internal systems via MCP vs bespoke integrations, the crossover.
Open the instrumentHow much to budget for the observability harness around agents.
