CAPABILITIES
The system around the model.
These are the building blocks we engineer with. The technology supports the category; the category is not the technology. Each block links to the service where it does the most work.

Protocols & standards
Open where it creates real value.
MCP and A2A are complementary. We adopt a standard when a customer's requirements and production value call for it — not because it is fashionable.
Technology
Frameworks and providers change. The engineering principles remain.
We select technology against
- Business requirements
- Agent behaviour
- Reliability
- Security
- Data
- Latency
- Cost
- Throughput
- Deployment constraints
- Customer infrastructure
- Regulatory requirements
We may work with
- OpenAI
- Anthropic
- Open-source models
- Self-hosted models
- Agent SDKs
- Agent frameworks
- MCP
- A2A
- Retrieval systems
- Vector databases
- Traditional databases
- Model gateways
- GPU runtimes
- Custom runtimes
- Custom orchestration
