  1. Fintech · SMB credit 2026 · 1 cycle · 720h
    01 / 10

    codename

    LATTICE

    An underwriting console for an SMB credit fintech, built and shipped in a single cycle.

    LATTICE needed to replace a spreadsheet-driven credit committee with an internal underwriting console that pulled bureau data, ran their proprietary scoring model, and let analysts approve or kick decisions back to a human committee with a paper trail.

    BOUGH

    A direct-to-consumer storefront with a made-to-order configurator, replacing a Shopify build that had outgrown the platform.

    BOUGH sells solid-oak furniture made-to-order. Their Shopify store buckled at the configurator step — too many options, too many SKUs, too much pricing logic. We rebuilt the storefront and the configurator end-to-end in thirty days.

    codename

    CADUCEUS

    A clinician-facing chronic-care platform with patient intake, structured encounter notes, and an AI scribe that earns clinician trust.

    CADUCEUS needed to ship a working clinician console — intake, scheduling, encounter notes, an AI-assisted scribe, and an audit trail — for a pilot with two clinics. Two cycles, sequenced. The scribe was the thing they were afraid would not work.

    ANCHOR

    An embedded-insurance API and partner console for a gig-economy insurer, taking quote-to-bind from minutes to seconds.

    ANCHOR underwrites short-duration insurance for gig workers — ride-hail drivers, delivery couriers, last-mile logistics. They needed an embeddable quote-to-bind API that platforms could integrate in an afternoon, plus a partner console for the platforms themselves.

    codename

    PULSE

    A community-first creator platform that turned a 4,000-person waitlist into a launch, with the agents quietly running the live ops layer.

    PULSE is a creator-community product — a hybrid of a paid newsletter, a member-only feed, and a private chat. The founders had a 4,000-person waitlist and twelve weeks before a referral spike from an earlier project would burn out. We shipped in eight.

    AURORA

    An AI agent module dropped into an existing B2B SaaS, behind a feature flag, with an eval harness that gated every PR.

    A workflow SaaS with 1,200 enterprise customers wanted to ship an AI assistant inside their product without disrupting the existing surface or risking regression. We built the agent module, the eval corpus, and the rollout plan — and merged it behind a flag on day 19.

    TALLOW

    An end-to-end personal-finance agent for solopreneurs — perception, reasoning, memory, tools, and an eval harness — shipped as a product, not a demo.

    TALLOW set out to build a 'personal CFO' agent for solopreneurs: it ingests bank feeds, classifies transactions, surfaces decisions, and answers natural-language questions about runway. The hard part was making it reliable enough to trust with money.

    codename

    HARBOR

    An internal operations console with agent workers replacing six manual workflows — saving an estimated thirty-two operator-hours a week.

    HARBOR's operations team ran six recurring workflows manually: invoice triage, customer-tier reconciliation, churn-risk flagging, ticket-tag normalization, partner-payout calculation, and report-distribution. We built an internal console with agent workers doing the toil and operators reviewing the calls.

    09 / 10

    codename

    MERIDIAN

    A property-management SaaS for independent landlords in tier-1 Indian cities — rent ledger, maintenance workflows, tenant comms, and a UPI-first payments rail.

    MERIDIAN's founder had run a 90-unit rental portfolio personally. He knew what existing Indian proptech tools got wrong (everything UPI-adjacent) and what they over-engineered. We built the tool he'd wanted for five years.

    codename

    ATRIUM

    A two-sided marketplace for specialist healthcare equipment rental — supplier inventory, hospital procurement, and a matching engine launched in a single cycle.

    ATRIUM connects suppliers of specialist medical equipment (think: surgical robots, rare imaging gear) with hospitals that need short-term access. Existing procurement processes take weeks; ATRIUM aimed for the same booking in hours. The hard part was trust on both sides.
