Services businesses
Staffing, agencies, MSPs, field-service operators.
We cut the senior hours behind proposals, memos, transcripts, and onboarding.
Forward-deployed AI
AI for the real economy.
Working systems, not strategy decks. We build AI inside the workflows that move your P&L, and your team owns what ships.
Deployment is where AI pays off.
Every team has model access. Few have working deployments. Turning one into the other is the craft, and it's what we build.
Model access isn't deployment.
Sandbox pilots don't count. The teams that win this decade will run AI inside the work itself, in production.
Strategy decks don't ship.
A working system moves your numbers. We ship on your infrastructure and measure against the outcomes you'd put on a board slide.
One team, start to finish.
The engineer who diagnoses is the engineer who ships and hands off.
Off-the-shelf fits the average company.
Most established operators aren't average. Bespoke software used to take a year. With AI, a system built around how you actually work ships in weeks.
Three engagements. One shape.
However you start, the price is fixed up front and your team owns what we build.

2–3 weeks
We embed, map your workflows, and ship the first one to production. You get the ROI math for the rest.
- Workflow & data audit
- One workflow shipped to production
- Ranked roadmap with ROI estimates
Build the system.
8–12 weeks · fixed fee
We build the system inside your workflow and ship it to production on your infrastructure. Your team is trained by launch.
- Integration with your existing stack
- User training & runbooks
- Live support through launch
Run it with us.
Ongoing retainer
Fractional AI leadership after the first system ships. We add deployments, measure honestly, and handle model migrations.
- Periodic deployment expansions
- Model & vendor migration
- Board-level reporting
Industries
Where the work pays.
If your business runs on workflows, judgment, and documents, you have the most to gain.
Industrial & manufacturing
Manufacturers, plant operators, industrial OEMs.
We capture tribal knowledge from inspection reports and work orders, and run vision QA on the line.
Distribution & wholesale
Industrial distributors, specialty wholesalers, dealers.
We clean ERP records, enable reps, and match messy specs to your catalog.
Non-clinical healthcare
Provider networks, billing groups, ambulatory operators.
Revenue cycle, prior auth, intake, and scheduling. We don't touch clinical decisions.
Professional services
Accounting, law, consulting, real estate, insurance.
We raise the floor on associate work and free partners for the work clients value.
What we deploy
Nine systems, built to run.
Each one built to order and shipped to production inside your workflow.
Quote & RFQ automation
Requests arrive as messy emails and PDFs. We parse them, match lines to your catalog and pricing, and draft the quote for a rep to approve.
Quotes out the door in minutes.
Quote follow-up
Most quotes never get a second touch. We watch the open ones, draft timely follow-ups, and flag the likeliest to close.
Conversion up, no added headcount.
SPA & rebate recovery
Rebate terms live in spreadsheets and claims go unfiled. We pull every contract into a live ledger and flag unclaimed money before it expires.
Recovered margin, often six or seven figures.
Models are commodity. Deployment is craft.
Forward-deployed, end to end.
One senior engineer, inside your operation, from first workshop to final runbook. Accountability never changes hands.
- 1
Diagnose
We sit with the people doing the work and find where AI moves your cost lines. The first workflow is live before you've finished reading the plan.
- 2
Deploy
We build inside your workflow, wired to your tools, with a person in the loop wherever judgment matters. We pick whichever model wins on your work.

Hand off
We train your team, write the runbooks, and stay live through the first month. We measure ourselves by how quickly you don't need us.
What you get at handoff.
Every engagement ends with the working system and the kit your team needs to own it.
- Workflow map
- Current process, target state, human checkpoints.
- ROI model
- Hours saved, cycle time cut, where the numbers should move.
- Test set
- Cases from your workflow, scored against the outcomes the system must hit.
- Production repo
- Code, prompts, and config, in accounts you control.
- Runbook
- How it works, what to do when it fails, who owns each part.
- Monitoring notes
- The checks that keep accuracy, speed, and cost visible.
Common questions.
How does an engagement work?
We find the workflow where AI pays back fastest, build the system inside it, and ship it to production on your infrastructure. A diagnostic runs two to three weeks with one workflow live. A full build ships in eight to twelve. The price is fixed up front, with no hourly billing and no change-order creep. At handoff it's yours, or we stay on and run it with you.
Who will we actually work with?
Accipiter is founder-led. Patrick McGovern runs every engagement personally. When a build needs more hands, you meet the named senior engineers before work starts.
Where does our data live? Is it secure?
On your systems, in accounts you control, never routed through our servers or used to train external models. For regulated industries we work to HIPAA and SOC 2 standards and go through your security review before kickoff. Models are benchmarked on your actual work (Claude, GPT, Gemini, open-source) and picked on merit.
What happens when the system gets something wrong?
Every deployment starts with a person in the loop: the system drafts, your people approve. Nothing customer-facing goes out on its own until it has earned that autonomy against a test set built from your own work.
What do you need from our team?
A few hours with the people who do the work, a contact who can grant system access, and thirty minutes a week with a decision-maker. Training and change management are on us. By handoff, your team runs the system.
Who owns the IP?
You do. Code, prompts, evals, and runbooks live in your repo, on your infrastructure. After handoff you can run it yourself, bring us back for an expansion, or move to an Operate retainer.
