AkuDozie · an AI engineering studio

We build software, and the businesses around it.

Strategy, brand, product, engineering, launch and operations. Start where you are; one studio builds it, runs it, and answers for it.

Bring us an idea, a business, or a system that is not holding up. We build it, launch it, and keep it running, so you never have to.

From your first decision to the daily running.

We do six things for a company.

  1. The money side is settled before anyone writes code.More on strategy →
  2. Your brand and your build are never two suppliers' problem.More on brand →
  3. Scope cut to what it has to prove, not padded to fill a quote.More on product →
  4. Your system ships watched, not just finished.More on engineering →
  5. A launch you are walked through, not emailed.More on launch →
  6. The work runs. You only see the decisions.More on operations →

We use AI in our own work at every stage. We also build it into your system wherever it does the job better.

Wherever AI touches your data, your decisions or your risk, we tell you where it sits. We also tell you what happens when it is wrong.

What we've built

Each one says which of the six stages were ours. Every figure is read off the system it describes.

Our own brandAll six stagesLaunching

Airtight

A product for builders shipping AI-written apps. It checks them for the mistakes that leak data, such as secret keys left in code anyone can see, or a database anyone can read. We found the problem, named the brand and designed the identity. Then we engineered the product and are taking it to market ourselves, at our own risk. It is the clearest evidence of what we can do for someone else.

Lily's Nursery & Daycare

Enquiries, visits, applications, offers and deposits, built from scratch around how the nursery actually runs. Launched under their brand, and still ours to run.

AKD Bot

Software its owner runs on their own marketplace account. It watches the market, captures trades within the owner's rules, sees each one through and keeps the books. One studio made the name and the machine.

What would you bring us?

Take the closest one and we will answer it the way we would answer it on a call: where we start, which of the six areas we take, and what you end up holding.

We start with

The audit: your real workflow, where customers, money or records fall out of it, and what each of those losses is worth over a year.

Areas we take
StrategyBrandProductEngineeringLaunchOperations
Your brand stays yours, and so do the decisions and the data. We take the build and the running of it.
You end up holding

One system holding the flow end to end, and us watching it. Lily's Nursery & Daycare is this shape.

Start with the audit

The standard we hold everything we run to.

Eight guarantees on one face. We watch every system we run from a single place, so the same eight questions are asked of all of them at once.

  1. 01

    Observed. We know the system's state before you do. When something is wrong, you hear it from us first, never from a customer. We give you the timeline of what we saw and when.

  2. 02

    Recorded. Every action, decision and exception has a record. Every claim we make about the system is read off those records. Nothing is quietly rewritten.

  3. 03

    Recoverable. Everything is backed up. We rehearse getting it back before it goes live. We also plan for each outside service failing, rather than finding out after.

  4. 04

    Bounded. A person is involved only at decision points. Those points are written down, and they shrink over time.

  5. 05

    Exitable. Your data, exported in usable form on request. How the system retires is defined before it launches.

  6. 06

    Self-accounting. Each system reports its own hours, incidents and direct cost every month. Ask for last month's on anything we run.

  7. 07

    Shared. One place where we watch every system we run. Every record is kept the same way, with one account per system. The same questions are asked of all of them at once.

  8. 08

    No single dependency. No single supplier, AI model or platform can break the promise. If one has to be replaced, that is our job, not yours.

Eight guarantees, held on our own brands before they were offered to anyone else.

Checkable in the monthly system record: hours, incidents, direct cost, and any guarantee the system did not meet.

The questions we actually get asked.

Including the awkward ones. If yours is not here, it is the first thing we will answer.

Ask us directly
Are you an agency or a software company?

A studio. We design and engineer the thing, launch it, and keep it running. We do the same for products we own outright, which is where most of what we know came from.

Where does AI come in?

We use AI in our own design, engineering and operations. That is why a studio this size covers six stages. We also build it into your system wherever it does the job better. Where it touches your data, decisions or risk, we tell you where it sits, and what happens when it is wrong.

Can you really do brand and engineering?

We had to. Our own products needed a name, an identity, a site and a launch before they had users. So we do brand and engineering in the studio, not through another supplier we manage for you.

What does it cost?

It is priced at the audit, in writing, before anything starts. Nothing on this page is a price, and you will not be asked to guess at one.

How soon could you start?

The audit starts within days. We build one thing at a time, so we tell you when we are free rather than start something we cannot finish properly.

People wear the things we make.

A name on a cap, a system a team opens every morning, a product with its own users. Whatever we build ends up attached to somebody, which is the whole reason we keep running it after launch.

Start with the audit.

Tell us what you would bring us. You get a written read of what is worth building or fixing first, what it is worth to you, and a straight answer on whether we are the right studio for it.

No bot check, no qualification call. One reply, from the person who would design it.
