Contract software development

Contract work sits alongside the products we create ourselves: Learn to Unlock and the health band. When you hire Kaizen Intelligence Labs LLC, you hire us for a defined piece of software. We agree on the scope in writing, then we build it.

What you can hire us to build

• Application software, including mobile and web applications.
• The services behind an application: accounts, data, and the rules the product has to enforce.
• AI features inside a product, when the feature has a defined job, a defined input, and a person or system that checks the result.
• Integration with an AI platform from another company, when that platform is the right tool and the contract says so.

We turn down work that is only a request to put an “AI” label on software that does not need a model. If the right build is ordinary, tested software, that is what we propose.

How an engagement starts

1. You send an intake with your company name, your name, a work email, an optional phone number, and a description of what you want built. The form on the contact page opens your email app addressed to admin@kaizenilabs.com. You can also call (408) 478-2138.
2. We reply from admin@kaizenilabs.com. If the work is a fit, we agree on scope before building.
3. We deliver the software described in that scope. A change in scope is a new agreement, not an assumption.

The intake does not create an account, and it does not start billing. Nothing is under contract until both sides agree.

How AI is used on a contract

Three different uses show up in our work, and a proposal names which ones apply:

• Engineering. People design the system, review the code, and are responsible for what ships. AI tools may assist that work.
• A feature we build. The product itself calls a model to do a stated task. The contract says what the model is allowed to decide and what a person must confirm.
• A platform we do not own. The product calls an AI service from another company. We name that dependency. We do not describe it as our model.

What we need from you

A company name, a person we can reply to at a work email, and a description of the software. We do not take anonymous requests. Do not send passwords, private keys, or personal data about your customers in the first email. We will tell you what we need after we reply.
