How It Works
Design, Build, Refine, Maintain, Scale
1. Design
We Craft Your Vision into a Focused MVP
During our first collaborative kickoff session, our team works with you to refine your idea, narrowing the scope to focus on the core experience and outcomes that will deliver maximum value to your customers. The goal of this session is to define a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) concept that aligns with your goals.
2. Build
We Turn Concepts into Reality with AI and Code
Once the MVP is defined, our experts get to work building a functional prototype. Using cutting edge AI models and custom code, we create a functional prototype in days, not months. You’ll see your idea come to life quickly, ready for real world feedback.
3. Refine
We Iterate to Perfection
We iterate weekly, incorporating your feedback and user insights to transform the prototype into a polished MVP and eventually an AI product that looks, feels, and performs like a market leader. This collaborative process keeps you in control while we handle the technical details.
4. Maintain
Keeping Your AI Product Running 24/7
Your AI product needs to be reliable, and we’ve got you covered. We hosts and manage your solution, ensuring it runs smoothly 24/7. Our dedicated team monitors and provides ongoing support that lets you focus on growing your business.
5. Scale
Growing Together as Long Term Partners
As your startup grows, Hal9 scales with you. We provide the compute power and expertise to handle increased demand. Our goal is for your Hal9 investment to be self sustaining, and grow our engagement with transparent pricing that scales with usage.
Our Platform
State-of-the-Art Proprietary AI Platform
The Hal9 Platform allows us to create the most advanced AI products, starting with chatbots, to services, apps, and even hardware. It is purpose-built for generative AI, private, model-agnostic, fully customizable with Python, and deployable from GitHub.
Built for Generative AI
Create products from prompts, craft the right prompts with us, and watch your first demo come to life in seconds.
Private and Secure
Our platform can run in any cloud or on your own data centers, and your content can run securely in isolated runtimes powered by Kubernetes.
Model Agnostic
Large Language Models are evolving rapidly, and we support all of them with proper token management and auditing.
Customizable with Python
Building complex products requires changing code, which is why everything we do is powered by Python code and the best open-source libraries.
What We Can Create
Anything from Chatbots to Chrome Extensions and Cutting-Edge Hardware
AI Assistants
AskCourtCases is an AI-powered legal research tool that transforms how attorneys access federal and state court case information. Unlike PACER’s document-only approach, it provides instant, precise answers to case-specific questions with referenced sources. Built with Hal9’s fully managed AI service, the embedded chatbot leverages custom legal data sources for superior accuracy compared to generic LLMs, streamlining research and boosting efficiency.
AI Applications
The Reply Chrome Extension delivers fast, AI-crafted replies to messages on any platform. Powered by Hal9’s fully managed AI backend via a robust API, the custom-built Chrome Extension frontend ensures seamless, intelligent responses at your fingertips, boosting engagement and brand connection.
AI Hardware
Pixsso is an open-source E-Ink display showcasing AI-generated art from interactive “artists.” Powered by Hal9’s AI backend via API, it creates dynamic, context-aware visuals using custom data, like weather or news. Built with Waveshare’s E-Ink display and ESP32, it delivers a minimalist, tech-driven art experience.
