Anyone can prototype now.
Production is the hard part.
That’s ours.

PRTOTYPE.COM is a production studio. We take AI-built prototypes, stalled AI pilots and fragile back-office spreadsheets to production: audited, hardened, shipped and maintained. Fixed prices, set against a written specification. No day rates, no drift.

We started as a prototyping studio. Then the world learned to prototype. The missing o in our name has always marked the unfinished part of an idea. These days, that part is production. It is still exactly where we like to start.

Ways to work with us
iiEasy process
Idea to launch

A simple way of working,
start to finish.

01
Day 1–5
Audit

Show us what you have: a Lovable app with real users, a pilot that stalled, a spreadsheet the whole business leans on. We audit it: security, data, infrastructure. Then we tell you the honest distance to production.

01
02
Week 1
Specify

The audit becomes a written specification: modules, acceptance criteria, and a fixed price on each. The spec is the scope. It's yours to keep, whoever you hire to build it.

02
03
Weeks 2–10
Build & harden

We take the approved spec to a production-grade release: real engineering, tested against the spec, progress in the open every few days. No black boxes, no big reveal.

03
04
Ongoing
Custody

When it ships, we can stay on: monitoring, patching, model migrations and evals, with a named monthly report. We stand behind what we ship.

iiiHow we work

Four ways to
work with us.

aOne week
Production audit

A senior review of your AI-built app or stalled pilot: security, data model, infrastructure, compliance. Includes a module-by-module specification with a fixed price on each. No judgement; we've seen far worse.

$7,500 fixed
b4–10 weeks
Production build

We take the approved specification to a hardened, shipped v1: takeover, not rebuild, wherever the existing code deserves to live. Tested against the spec, delivered in the open.

From $30,000
cScoped by assessment
Private LLM deployment

Open-weight models running in your infrastructure; your data never leaves your walls. RAG over your documents, fine-tuning where it earns its keep, compliance-ready by design. Readiness assessment $9,500.

From $45,000

dMonthly
Custody

Monitoring, security patching, dependency updates, LLM model migrations and eval runs, with a named monthly report so you can see exactly what you paid for.

From $1,500/month
Back-office software

Still running the business on a fragile spreadsheet?

We turn bloated, error-prone workbooks into custom back-office software your team can actually rely on. It starts with the same one-week audit: what the spreadsheet really does, what it should do, and a fixed-price spec to replace it. No budget commitment until that spec is in your hands.

Why production

Most AI projects don’t fail at the demo. They fail in the gap between the demo and the day real customers arrive: authentication, data models, security, compliance, scale. By MIT’s count, nineteen in twenty enterprise AI pilots never show a return, and it’s almost never the model’s fault. The gap is an engineering problem. Engineering is what we sell.
