No fallback—model outage stops business—teams then argue across ownership lines.
Model APIs
AI API Integration
Wiring AI is easy; controlling cost and degrading gracefully is hard.
Wire inference/embedding/speech APIs into flows—with limits and cost control.
Compliant crawling
We review target terms and legal boundaries first.
Reproducible envs
Locked deps and run notes—not 'works on my machine'.
Acceptable results
Samples and metrics define done—not vague 'looks ok'.
Integration pains
These usually show up before a project starts—or right after a rushed launch.
Duplicate calls burn budget—it often surfaces only after production impact.
Sensitive data leaves without redaction—iteration and local integration slow down.
No eval set for quality—users feel it as inconsistent data or UX.
Degradable intelligence layer
Unified client; cache idempotent calls; timeout/circuit break; rule-based fallback; small eval set. Prompt/param strategy, timeouts/retries, cache and usage monitors. Privacy: what may leave your boundary is written down.
