About
Your people are the forward deployed.
We're the instant firm behind them. Our job is your team's success. The credit stays with you.
Forward Deployed makes a company's own frontline employees and leaders the forward deployed, supported by the instant firm inside Claude, ChatGPT or any AI assistant. It turns the old model inside out: no outside team flown in, and no knowledge walking out when it leaves. No licenses, no retainers, no billable hours.
How we work
You get finished work. Your people stay in charge.
You describe the job in your own chat. The AI Workforce asks for what it needs, shows the price, and delivers finished files. Your team leads.
Capacity to do the work
The AI Workforce takes on the work, from your own documents and data.
Method to do it right
Every service follows a proven playbook. Desk research cites its sources; deliverables record their assumptions.
A human expert when it matters
Bring in a Forward Deployed advisor, an approved expert or a guest of your own. You decide what they see.
Your control
Every paid job is priced first. Above your limit, a colleague approves. Never more than the approved hold.

Guides
New to the forward deployed model?
Plain-language, sourced guides to the role, the interview and how the model compares with consulting, software and managed services, plus a glossary.
Private by design
Your work stays yours.
Security is built into how engagements, people and spending work, not added on top.
Private by default
Each engagement and conversation is visible only to the people invited to it. Restricted conversations stay hidden even from other members.
Kept apart
Each organization's data is separated in the database itself, not just on screen.
No passwords
Sign in with a one-time email code. Connected AI assistants reconnect daily, and large paid jobs need a fresh sign-in before they run.
You approve who joins
Guests, Forward Deployed advisors and approved experts see only what you give them access to, and you can remove them at any time.
Everything on record
Owners see who joined, what changed and who approved what, and every charge shows what ran and who approved it.
Your data stays yours
Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, never used to train AI models, and deleted within 30 days after you close your organization.
