Consultants who build AI Agents that work
Focused is a 60-person AI consulting company that helps enterprises move from AI experimentation to production. As an official LangChain partner, we specialize in building agentic AI systems, applications that take autonomous actions, make decisions, and complete complex workflows.
We work with Fortune 500 companies including DoorDash, Wayfair, Hertz, Weber Shandwick, and Alamo Drafthouse. Our sweet spot is the gap most organizations face: they've built impressive AI prototypes but struggle to deploy them reliably at scale, integrate with existing infrastructure, and deliver consistent results.
Our team brings 20+ years of enterprise software experience from organizations like Pivotal Labs and PayPal. We practice Eval-Driven Development, treating AI quality with the same rigor traditional software applies to testing, because demo-driven development doesn't cut it in production.
We deliver AI strategy, agentic system development, and production deployment for enterprises ready to make AI work for real.
