Core Capabilities
LLM Integration & Model Management
Integrate and manage 10+ models including OpenAI GPT-4o, Anthropic Claude 4.5, Llama 3.1, Mixtral, Qwen 2.5, DeepSeek-V2, and deploy locally with Ollama, vLLM, or TGI.
RAG & Vector Search
Build advanced retrieval-augmented generation pipelines with vector databases, embedding models, and optimized retrieval for production accuracy.
Agent Orchestration
Design and orchestrate intelligent agents with tool use, function calling, and multi-step reasoning for complex task automation.
AI Safety & Monitoring
Implement guardrails for prompt injection, PII detection, policy compliance, and cost controls with staged rollout and monitoring.
Usage Examples
Before
Support team manually searched docs, average resolution time 15 minutes.
After
AI agent resolves 80% of queries in under 30 seconds with 95% accuracy.
Input
Create an AI agent that can book meetings and send emails.
Output
Orchestrated an agent with Claude 4.5 using tool use for calendar and email APIs, with human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive actions.
Input
Deploy a local LLM for offline code generation.
Output
Set up Ollama with Llama 3.2 7B, configured vLLM for low-latency inference, and implemented cost monitoring.
