AI-First Conversion. We turn regulated companies into AI-first operations in 12 months.
Agents that deliver. Humans that certify. Every step audit-trailed. Founder-signed under $500K. The flagship engagement that ties the whole Mindtrades stack together.
What "AI-first" means when we ship it.
AI-first is not a tagline. It is an operating model. Your tickets are drafted by Pulse, your AEO is scored by AEORank, your content gates run on Manuscript on-prem, your audits are signed by named humans, and every step is auditable end to end. We deliver this in 12 months.
Q1: We audit your existing AI surface, data plane, and compliance posture. Output: a 30-page baseline report.
Q2-3: We ship the agent fleet, wire it into your stack, and stand up Pulse + Manuscript on-prem if needed.
Q3-4: We run the operations alongside your team. Monthly founder-signed audit. Outcomes-priced.
Month 12: Full runbook handoff to your team, or extension to a continuing engagement. You own the IP.

Why this is different from "AI strategy consulting"
BCG and McKinsey will sell you a 200-slide AI roadmap and walk away. We deploy three products, run them for a year, and sign every audit.
The repository ships to your GitHub org at handoff. Two of three products are MIT-licensed, so you can read every line of detection logic.
10-20% of fee at risk against 2-4 measurable targets locked in Month 1. We earn the engagement; we don't extract it.
Under $500K total contract value, the founder personally signs every monthly audit report. That accountability is structurally a small-firm move.
