AI in Production. Not on a Slide.
Every organization has an AI strategy. Most of it sits on slides. We build the systems that actually run. Deployed in weeks, measured from day one, owned by your operations team permanently.

WHY NOW
of PE funds have active AI initiatives
have anything running in production
The constraint is not strategy. It is implementation.
Every company in that gap is a working system waiting to be built.

How It Works
From Diagnostic to Live System
We find the one workflow worth building. Then we build it.
2 weeks
Discovery
A fixed-fee operations audit. We identify the single highest-ROI AI opportunity, map the workflow, and deliver a clear implementation brief. If there is no clear ROI path, we stop and say so. You receive a Decision Memo: one workflow selected, ROI case in two calculation methods, success metric agreed in writing, and a clear recommendation to proceed or stop.
6-8 weeks
Design + Pilot
We build and deploy the identified workflow. One system, integrated into your existing tools. Measurable from week one. You receive a working system in production, full documentation, a trained team, and a before/after measurement against the baseline established in Discovery.
Ongoing
Scale
Once the Pilot proves ROI, we systematize it. Additional workflows, expanded deployment, full documentation. The system stops being a pilot and starts being how you operate. You receive an expanded production system, an ongoing operations cadence, and a prioritized backlog of the next highest-ROI workflows.
Multi-portco
Portfolio Replication
The same playbook, deployed across the portfolio. Faster each time. PE operating partners engage us at the fund level. You receive compressed deployment timelines, lower per-company cost, and a consistent architecture that compounds in value as it scales.
Project-based. Outcomes-aligned. No retainer until value is demonstrated. Every engagement begins with a conversation, not a proposal.

ABOUT
Built by Someone Who Has Done This at Scale
I built Pluto AI after watching the same pattern repeat: organizations spending months on AI strategy that never reached production. Pilots that proved the concept but stalled at integration. Vendors who delivered recommendations and left.
The firms that actually moved, the ones that built systems that ran in production and changed how operations worked, shared one thing: they started with one specific workflow, proved the ROI, and scaled from there.
That is exactly the approach Pluto AI takes in any engagement. One workflow. Deployed. Measured. Then scaled across the portfolio.
