We scope your AI project before you sign, build it in weeks, and run it month-to-month. Senior engineers only. Terminate anytime.
Founded 2018 in Kuala Lumpur. AI-native since 2026.
One front door. Pick the engagement that matches where you are.
Find out what's worth building — before anyone signs a build contract.
Problem framing, architecture sketch, build-vs-buy call, effort and cost estimate, eval and guardrail outline. Delivered as a written report, with a live walkthrough on request.
You have an AI idea and want a senior team to pressure-test it before committing budget.
Production AI software, shipped against fixed milestones.
One or more agents in production, integrated, evaluated, instrumented. Milestones gate on a working demo, an eval pass-rate, and written sign-off — never on hours.
Discovery is complete (with us or in-house) and you're ready to ship.
Embedded senior pod that owns the agent after it ships.
Weekly review, prompt and model refresh, eval-set maintenance, on-call coverage. 30-day notice to pause or stop — no annual lock-in.
Something is live and you want the people who built it to keep running it.
| Traditional dev shop | ScalingWorks (AI-native) | |
|---|---|---|
| Engagement model | Time-and-materials or open-ended retainer | Discovery → Build → Run, each phase fixed-scope |
| Timeline to production | 4–9 months from kickoff | 4–10 weeks to a thin-slice in production |
| Quality model | Reviews vary by team and reviewer | Versioned prompts, labelled eval set, eval pass-rate gates merges |
| Observability | Logs after the fact | Audit logs, reviewer queues, KPIs reported weekly from day one |
| Exit | Multi-quarter notice, knowledge walks out the door | 30-day notice. Code, prompts, evals, and runbooks are yours |
| Who builds it | Mixed seniority, rotating | Senior engineers only, no offshoring the agent core |
Every Build and Run engagement runs on a weekly cadence. You see the same artifacts every Friday.
We treat client lock-in as a smell. Every engagement — Discovery, Build, Run — terminates on 30 days' notice. You keep the code, the prompts, the eval sets, and the runbooks. If it isn't working, you should be able to walk.
30 minutes. No deck. We'll either tell you what we'd build and what it would cost — or that you don't need us yet.
