You say it. It gets built.
Welcome to Foundry. A conversational platform that interviews your team, researches independently, figures out your business, your gaps, goals, people and technology needs. Foundry then architects your entire AI solution, while agents are standing ready to build it. Go forth and build.
What you get is AI deployed against a real business need, through a process you can see: every requirement traces to the person who asked for it, every consequential action waits for a person to approve it, and nothing ships before the acceptance tests you agreed to pass.
A demonstration of the method. Six turns produce a gap report: what is known, what is open, and who on your side must decide. The guided engagement runs the same process with hyper8 in the room.
The gap report ranks every unknown, names the specification field it blocks, and identifies who on your side has to answer it. Foundry compiles it in about a minute.
Foundry runs the same discovery either way: every statement attributed, every open question named, every decision assigned to a person. The difference is whether you sit at the controls or we do.
Start a Foundry above. Foundry records what you say, raises what it cannot infer, and emails you a gap report. Bring it to a thirty-minute session and leave with the first draft of a specification.
We run the discovery. Foundry interviews your team, we score the opportunities against value, feasibility, data readiness, risk and adoption, and we come back with a prioritised roadmap and the first pilot defined.
You receive Prioritised opportunities, a business case for each, the readiness gaps, and a recommended roadmap.
We need Interviews with the people who do the work, and access to the systems they use.
You receive One workflow, built and integrated, with the measures of success agreed before it starts and a go or no-go decision at the end.
We need An owner on your side, the data the workflow touches, and the people who will use it.
You receive A deployed system in your environment, with acceptance tests passed, a security review, training and a handover.
We need Environment access, a security contact, and sign-off on the acceptance criteria.
You receive Monitoring, maintenance, evaluation against the agreed measures, and enhancements you approve.
We need A monthly review and a named decision owner.
You own the specification, the deliverables and your data. Foundry and the worker platform remain hyper8's. Your data stays inside your engagement and is never shared with another client.
Four axes, twenty points, one kill test. Every hyper8 venture and client engagement goes through it before anything is built, and we say no in public. So do the companies that raised the most money to fail, scored after the fact.
Kill test: customers leave. Build capability without an owned decision moment or compounding outcome data. $445M raised against a commodity.
Kill test: customers leave. Real friction, real vertical, no owned signal. $902M raised against a product any well-funded rival could ship.
We do not publish the axes or the weights. On a thirty-minute call we walk you through them and score your venture while we do. You leave with the number and the reasons.
Get your venture scoredKill test: customers stay. Answer-engine optimisation for medical practices and service businesses. Which answers win which citations for which practice is outcome data only Ranklens accumulates, and it compounds with every client.
Kill test: customers stay. Underwriting on operational signal conventional finance cannot read. The signal is the customer's own order history, so the model improves with every account and no competitor can buy the input.
Kill test: customers stay. Deep knowledge sales agents for a licensing services firm whose expertise lived in recorded sales calls. Foundry distilled knowledge and trained AI agents on a body of licensing regulations spanning 50 states. Trained agents answer, qualify and book clients, with every answer tracing back to its sources. Knowledge compounds with every call.
Borderline at launch, hotspot trajectory. The score is manufactured by the first cohort. Day one looks like every failed consumer network; year two does not.
A compiled specification is a set of obligations with names attached. Hyper8 workers take tasks from that specification and nowhere else. Five things hold from the first interview to production.
No statement, no requirement. No requirement, no worker. Most agent platforms break that rule on day one.
Hyper8's founders spent decades in computer engineering, AI, business, digital and marketing strategy, leading teams at IBM, Microsoft and Publicis and helping more than 100 Fortune companies and startups grow and innovate.
Hyper8 was created in response to the AI readiness gap in the business community. It is now a venture builder as well as a services firm: we run our own portfolio through Foundry and our AI workers first, and offer clients the same discipline, the same compiler and the same framework we hold ourselves to.
