Stillware Services

AI engineering
for things that actually need to work.

Most "AI consultancies" sell slides. Most agencies hand you code that breaks the moment a model deprecates. Stillware does the unsexy middle: building real working AI systems, and staying on the hook when prompts drift, APIs change, or new models force a migration.

The gap between "AI demo" and "AI in production" is wider than the brochure suggests.

A weekend prototype can look like the future. Six months in, with model deprecations, prompt regressions, vector-store migrations, and integrations that change their auth scheme without warning, it can quietly stop working — or, worse, work confidently with the wrong answer. Stillware exists to bridge that gap. We build AI systems that handle the boring half: monitoring, evals, fallbacks, version-pinning, and the on-call when something breaks at 6pm on a Tuesday.

What We Do

Three tracks. One mindset.

Pick the engagement that fits the problem — not a tier ladder we made up to upsell you.

Productized Services

Pre-built systems we run on your behalf. Transparent pricing, cancel anytime, no contracts. NeverMiss is the first one — an AI dispatcher for UK trades that turns missed calls into qualified leads.

From £149 setup + monthly subscription

Custom AI Builds

RAG systems over your documents, agentic workflows, internal copilots, document pipelines, and intake/qualification flows. Scoped, quoted, and shipped — not endless discovery decks.

Fixed-scope, quoted after a discovery call

Ongoing Operations

We run the AI system day-to-day. Monitoring, prompt iteration, model migrations, eval pipelines, incident response. Suitable for systems we built, or ones you've built and need someone to babysit in production.

Monthly retainer, fixed scope

How We Work

Founder-led. Direct. Fast.

01

The engineer building it is the one you talk to

No SDR layer, no project manager hand-offs, no "let me check with the team and get back to you." The person reviewing your problem on the call is the same person writing the code.

02

Working prototypes in days, not decks

By the end of week one on a custom build, you've usually got something running you can poke at — not a slide showing what it might look like in three months.

03

Transparent stack, no black boxes

We disclose what's running. DeepSeek for inference, Tavily for grounded search, LangGraph for orchestration, LangSmith for evals and observability. You can swap providers if you have specific compliance constraints.

04

On the hook for what we ship

Custom builds come with a defined warranty period for prompt regressions, model deprecations, and integration breakage. Productized services are operated by us — when something breaks, you call us, not your IT.

Likely a Fit
  • UK SMBs with a specific operational pain — "our team spends six hours a week on X"
  • Founders or ops leads who can make decisions in days, not quarters
  • Teams that need AI in production, not in a workshop deck
  • Anyone who'd rather pay for a fixed-scope build than a vague hourly retainer
Not a Fit
  • Enterprise procurement with three-month NDA and security-review cycles
  • "We have an idea but no budget" build-for-equity startups
  • Pure strategy engagements with no implementation
  • Use cases prohibited by our infrastructure providers (gambling, adult, debt collection, etc.)
Pricing

Fixed scope, fixed price, no hourly creep.

We don't do day rates. Day rates make every conversation about hours instead of outcomes — bad for you, bad for us.

Productized Services
From £149 setup + £99/mo (NeverMiss). Cancel anytime. See pricing.
Custom AI Builds
Fixed-scope quote after a free 30-minute discovery call. Most builds run two to six weeks.
Ongoing Operations
Monthly retainer, scope agreed up front. Includes monitoring, prompt iteration, model migrations, and incident response.

Tell us what you're trying to build.

30-minute discovery call, no obligation. We'll either tell you what we'd build, point you at a productized option, or be honest that we're not the right fit. We reply within one working day.
