An AI studio for solo founders and small teams
AI that holds up in production.
A solo founder working as your forward-deployed engineer, with AI agents doing the legwork. We help you decide, then we build and ship it.
Services
Bring us the problem.
From the first strategy call to a system your customers use. Every engagement leaves you with something you keep.
Engagements: Coach, Co-build, Deliver.
A decision memo
AI consulting & strategy
Start here
We show where AI makes sense, help you choose the right models, and tailor them to your product and data.
- You bring
- One real question and access to the data behind it.
- If it’s a no
- You still keep the memo and the reasoning.
- Then
- Build it with us, or take the memo and run.
A production system
Product engineering
Launched fast in your repo, with its checks and monitoring. No over-engineering, and a clear path for when you grow.
Agent workflows you own
Marketing & distribution
Content and outreach workflows inside the tools you already use. Run and improved with you, with a progress note on what moved.
Playbooks for your codebase
Training & workshops
Hands-on sessions on your own code and real problems. We coach, co-build, or take on full delivery, whatever helps you move faster.
Why us
We don’t just advise.
We ship.
The memo is where we start, not where we stop. Most AI advice ends in a deck. Ours ends in a system your customers use, with the evidence that it works.
Forward-deployed engineer
FDE · noun
An engineer who works inside your product, not beside it: in your repo, your chat and your review calls. At Missing Studio that is the founder, with a fleet of AI agents doing the legwork.
- You talk to the person doing the work.
- Not a tool you configure or an agency that hands you off: one engineer, accountable from memo to production.
- You own the code and the checks, and how it all works is written down.
How the studio runs
One founder.
A fleet of agents.
Agents research, draft and test. Nothing reaches your product without the founder’s review.

How we work
Production rigor.
Solo-founder speed.
Before we build, we agree in plain words what good looks like for your product. It goes live when it gets there, and not before.
Typical product build
Only need the strategy? We can stop after you Decide
Decide
We map the work, pick one job worth doing, and agree the bar it must clear.
Output: Decision memo
Prove
We test on your real examples, not demos, and keep what passes.
Output: Test results on your data
Build
In your repo, in short cycles you can see, behind a flag until it’s ready.
Output: Working system
Launch
It goes live when it clears the bar. If it doesn’t, it doesn’t ship.
Output: Runbook, monitoring
High agency
High agency, on both sides.
A high-agency founder sets the course instead of drifting. So we agree who does what before any work starts, and we write it down.
From you
- One decision-maker in the loop
- System and data access from the start
- Time to review the work
From us
- The person who plans it builds it
- Progress you can see, as work ships
- Trade-offs stated plainly, in writing
Missing AI OS
We build the layers a business runs on.
One AI-native operating layer for your people, agents and apps. Each engagement adds a layer, so the work compounds instead of piling up as pilots.
- Any model
- Switch models without rewiring.
- One context
- Every tool reads the same memory.
- Your tools
- Built on the tools you already use.
- Peopledecide, review, approve
- Appsthe tools you already use
- Agentsdo the work, show the evidence
- Workflows & controlspermissions, evals, cost limits
- Context & dataone shared memory for your tools

Where this goes
The frontier of autonomous companies.
We build the environments and infrastructure for businesses run with agents, one deployed system at a time, starting with yours.
