- Autonomous agents and multi-agent workflows (LangGraph, CrewAI)

- Multi-provider LLM orchestration with fallback chains
- Auth, state, and deployment included
- Typical outcome: a polished product your customers can actually use

### 4. Edge Computer Vision
- YOLOv8, TensorRT, INT8 quantization
- Jetson-class hardware deployment, sub-100ms inference
- Typical outcome: real-time defect/object detection running on the edge

### 5. AI Strategy & Reviews
