Our Approach

Human-centered AI, in practice

When we built Decide for ITI Assistive Technologies, the AI never makes the choice — it structures the decision so the user can. That's human-centered AI in practice: the person stays the decision-maker, every time.

Responsible AI

We filed three CVEs — one rated Highly Critical — through responsible disclosure. We hold ourselves to the standard we consult on.

Efficient solutions

Concept to a working security scanner in about 30 hours. We build what's needed, then stop.

Community focus

We help organize GiveBackHack Columbus and build alongside social-enterprise clients — technology in service of community impact.

Services

How we help

Every service is anchored to something we've actually shipped.

AI MVP Development

From concept to a working product in your users' hands — the way we took Decide from idea to an app in the field.

Shipped: Decide, a decision-support app now live with real users.

Responsible AI Consulting

Governance, ethics, and security you can verify — not a slide about principles. We help you decide where AI belongs, and where it doesn't.

Shipped: three CVEs filed through responsible disclosure, one rated Highly Critical.

AI Problem Solving

We find the one process actually worth automating — then automate just that, and measure the before and after. No AI for AI's sake.

How we work: scoped, measured, and stopped at "done."

Accessible & Assistive Technology

We've served as CTO of an assistive-technology company and shipped a decision-support app designed with and for neurodivergent users. Accessibility isn't a compliance checkbox for us — it's where we started.

Shipped: Decide, built with neurodivergent users, not just for them.

Built by SeraphDev

Four domains. All shipped.

Range is the point: SaaS, security, assistive tech, and compliance automation — real work you can look at.

Case Study

Decide — decision support for neurodivergent users

ITI Assistive Technologies

Decision fatigue is heaviest exactly when the stakes are high. We built Decide with ITI Assistive Technologies to lower that load — with special consideration for neurodivergent users — without ever taking the decision out of the person's hands.

Before Decide

A hard choice arrives as a wall: options, trade-offs, and pressure all at once. Cognitive load spikes, and the decision stalls or gets made under stress.

With Decide

The app breaks the choice into structured steps, surfaces the trade-offs one at a time, and hands the final call back to the user — clarity without a hand-off of control.

The AI structures the decision; the person makes it. That design line is the whole point — and it's the same principle we bring to every project.

Common questions

Straight answers, before you book

How much does an AI MVP cost?

Most small-business AI MVPs land in the low five figures, because we scope to the one problem worth solving and stop there. A short discovery call gets you a concrete range for your specific idea — no obligation. More detail on the FAQ →

Does my small business actually need AI?

Often the honest answer is "not yet" — and we'll tell you so. AI earns its place when there's a repetitive, judgment-light task or a decision that better structure would improve. If that's not your bottleneck, we'll say that plainly. More on the FAQ →

AI consultant vs. building in-house?

Hiring in-house makes sense once AI is core and continuous. For a first product or a bounded problem, a fractional team ships faster and cheaper without a permanent headcount commitment. More on the FAQ →
