Custom software & AI systems

We build the
software that
makes AI work.

We design, ship, and maintain custom software and AI agents that hold up under real load. Not demos that fall apart in week three.

01 · The problem

Most companies don't have a software problem. They have a seams problem. Twelve tools that don't talk, a spreadsheet holding the business together, an AI pilot that never shipped. We build the layer that closes the gaps, then stay to maintain it.

01

Manual, repetitive work

Hours lost to data entry, reports, and copy-paste workflows that should run themselves.

02

Disconnected tools

CRM, inventory, accounting, support. All siloed, so your team becomes the integration layer.

03

Legacy infrastructure

Systems that are hard to maintain, impossible to scale, and quietly blocking growth.

04

AI that never shipped

A promising prototype with no evals, no guardrails, and no path into production.

02 · How we build

Phase 01

Architecture
before pixels.

Data models, boundaries, and failure modes get designed first. That's the difference between software that scales and software you rewrite in a year.

  • Domain modeling
  • API design
  • Threat modeling
  • Cost envelope
Phase 02

AI as a
load-bearing layer.

Models are wired in where they create leverage, with retrieval, evals, and guardrails around them. Not a chat box bolted to the corner of your app.

  • Agents & tool use
  • RAG pipelines
  • Eval harness
  • Human-in-the-loop
Phase 03

Shipped.
And still ours.

We deploy, monitor, and stay on the hook. Updates, fixes, and new features come from the same engineers who wrote the first commit.

  • CI/CD
  • Observability
  • On-call posture
  • Quarterly roadmap

03 · What we build

Three ways in.
One team behind all of it.

Off-the-shelf software makes your business bend around someone else's assumptions. We build the system your operation actually runs on, then keep it fast as it grows.

  • Customer-facing web platforms & SaaS
  • Internal dashboards and admin tooling
  • APIs, integrations, and data pipelines
  • iOS & Android when you need it native
  • React
  • Next.js
  • TypeScript
  • Node
  • Python
  • PostgreSQL

The gap between a demo and a dependable agent is evals, guardrails, retries, and observability. That gap is most of the work, and it's what we specialize in.

  • Agents with real tool access and audit trails
  • RAG over your documents, tickets, and data
  • Eval suites so quality is measured, not vibed
  • Cost, latency, and fallback engineering
  • Claude
  • OpenAI
  • Gemini
  • LangGraph
  • Vector DBs
  • Evals

We migrate what's worth keeping, replace what isn't, and automate the glue between your tools, without stopping the business.

  • Legacy migration with zero-downtime cutovers
  • Process automation across existing tools
  • Cloud infrastructure and CI/CD
  • Reporting that replaces the spreadsheet
  • AWS
  • GCP
  • Docker
  • Kubernetes
  • Stripe
  • HubSpot

05 · Use cases

Systems we've
built before.

Support

AI ticket responder

Classifies tickets, drafts a grounded reply, resolves the routine ones, and escalates the rest with context attached.

  • Zendesk + Claude
  • 4 weeks
01
Operations

Inventory & invoice engine

Reads inbound documents, reconciles stock against accounting, and issues invoices. A human approves anything unusual.

  • QuickBooks + OCR
  • 6 weeks
02
Knowledge

Internal knowledge agent

Retrieval over contracts, SOPs, and Slack history. Answers cite their source, and it refuses to guess.

  • RAG + pgvector
  • 3 weeks
03
Revenue

Lead qualification agent

Enriches every lead, scores it against your closed-won patterns, and routes the good ones straight to a rep.

  • HubSpot + agents
  • 3 weeks
04
Processing

Document intake pipeline

PDFs, scans, and forms in, structured records out. Every field is confidence scored, and weak extractions get flagged.

  • Vision + validation
  • 5 weeks
05
Analytics

Operations intelligence

One warehouse pulling from every tool you run, surfacing the numbers leadership actually decides on.

  • dbt + Postgres
  • 6 weeks

entirely?

Tell us the bottleneck. We'll say honestly whether software fixes it.

06 · Ownership

Layer 01

Interface

The part your customers judge you on. Fast, accessible, and designed rather than assembled from a template.

  • React
  • Next.js
  • Design systems
  • Motion
Layer 02

Logic

APIs, business rules, agents, and jobs. Typed end to end, tested where it matters, observable in production.

  • Node
  • Python
  • FastAPI
  • Queues
Layer 03

Foundation

Data, infrastructure, and deployment. Backed up, monitored, and boring on purpose.

  • PostgreSQL
  • AWS
  • Docker
  • CI/CD

07 · Stack

The right tool per job.
No religion about it.

08 · Process

Four steps.
Working software every week.

No black-box phases, no six-week silence. You see the thing running while it's being built.

    We map the bottleneck, quantify what it costs, and define success in numbers. Sometimes the honest answer is that you don't need us yet.

    Architect

    Data models, integration points, AI surface area, and infrastructure, all designed and priced before production code is written.

09 · Why Codificial

Small team.
Senior only. No handoffs.

You talk to the engineers

No account manager relaying requirements to juniors. The people on your calls write the code.

AI-native by default

We've shipped LLM systems since before it was a category. We know where models help and where they're an expensive mistake.

We stay for the maintenance

Most agencies disappear at launch. Ours are built around the years after, because that's when software compounds or rots.

Fixed scope, clear pricing

Scoped in writing, priced up front. If something changes mid-build, you hear about it before it hits an invoice.

You own everything

Your repositories, your cloud accounts, your data. No proprietary runtime, no lock-in clause, no hostage situation.

Production is the standard

Tests, monitoring, backups, and rollback plans ship with the feature. "It works on staging" isn't a delivery.

10 · Questions

Before you
write to us.

What does a project typically cost?

A focused automation or single agent usually lands in the low five figures. Full platforms with integrations and ongoing maintenance run higher. We scope and price in writing before anything starts.

How fast can you ship?

A contained agent or automation typically goes live in two to four weeks. Larger platforms run two to four months, with working software on staging every week from week two.

Can you work with our existing codebase?

Yes, and often that's the better move. We audit it, tell you plainly what's worth keeping, then extend it or plan a migration that doesn't stop the business.

What happens after launch?

We stay. Monitoring, updates, fixes, and new features come from the same engineers, on a monthly agreement. If you take it in-house later, we document and hand over cleanly.

Do we own the code and the data?

Completely. Code lives in your repositories, infrastructure runs in your cloud accounts, and data never leaves systems you control. There's no proprietary runtime and no lock-in clause.

Are you remote?

We're based in San Antonio, Texas, and work with clients worldwide. Async by default, with a standing weekly call in your timezone. Every inquiry gets a human reply within 24 hours.
