The Computer Vision-First AI Lab

We bridge the gap between
AI research and production reality.

Specializing in Computer Vision and Custom AI Engineering for startups that can't afford to fail.

50+ Projects Delivered
99.2% Avg. Model Accuracy
10x Faster Than In-House

If we can teach a computer to see, we can teach it to do anything.

Our background in complex spatial data and pixels allows us to solve LLM problems that others find impossible. AI that works in the real world, not just in a slide deck.

Automated Inspection

Production-grade visual quality control systems that catch defects humans miss, running 24/7 without fatigue.

Real-Time Recognition

Sub-200ms object detection and classification deployed on edge devices or cloud, tuned for your latency budget.

Data-Driven Decisions

Transform raw visual and sensor data into actionable business intelligence, with full audit trails.

The Human-Tuned Pipeline

While we use AI to accelerate development, every line of the pipeline is human-audited for production-grade reliability. No black boxes. No surprises.

From concept to production, at startup speed.

Buy vs. Build.

We don't pick models based on hype. We pick based on your unit economics.

If a $0.01 API call does the job, we use it. If you need data sovereignty and lower latency, we deploy custom-tuned Llama/HuggingFace models on your private cloud.

We guide the decision; you own the intellectual property.

API-First (Buy)

  • Fastest time to market
  • Lower upfront cost
  • Managed infrastructure
  • Vendor dependency
vs

Custom Models (Build)

  • Full data sovereignty
  • Lower per-inference cost
  • Complete control
  • Higher upfront investment

The right choice depends on your data, budget, and scale targets. That's what the Audit determines.

Real problems. Real solutions.

Not just a logo wall. Here's what we actually built and the results it delivered.

Computer Vision

Manufacturing Quality Control

The Challenge

Client had 1M+ product images per month requiring manual inspection, with a 12% defect miss rate causing costly recalls.

The Vision Solution

Custom CNN classifier with edge deployment, processing images in <50ms on factory-floor hardware.

The Result

400 Manual hours saved/month
99.7% Detection accuracy
NLP + Vision

Document Intelligence Platform

The Challenge

Legal tech startup needed to extract structured data from 50+ document formats, with 99%+ accuracy required for compliance.

The Vision Solution

Multi-modal pipeline combining OCR, layout analysis, and fine-tuned LLM extraction with human-in-the-loop validation.

The Result

85% Processing time reduced
99.4% Extraction accuracy
Real-Time AI

Retail Analytics System

The Challenge

Retail chain needed real-time foot traffic analysis across 200+ cameras, with privacy-preserving people counting.

The Vision Solution

Privacy-first detection system using on-device inference with no PII storage, feeding a real-time analytics dashboard.

The Result

23% Revenue increase via optimization
<100ms Processing latency

The Auctas "Robustness" Checklist

If your AI project doesn't pass these five checks, you need an Audit before writing a single line of code.

1

Data Drift Sensitivity

How does the model perform if the input data changes by 10% next month?

2

The "Black Swan" Visual

How does the system handle extreme lighting, occlusions, or low-resolution edge cases?

3

Inference Economics

Can this run profitably at 100k users, or will the server costs eat the margin?

4

Hallucination Ceiling

What is the maximum "Error Tolerance" for this business case?

5

Latency vs. Accuracy Trade-off

Does the user need an answer in 200ms or 2 seconds?
