NOTE / 002 · TECH NOTE / AI INFRASTRUCTURE
Running a model inside the company is not automatically safer, cheaper or more useful. It makes sense when control, latency, data ownership and workload justify the infrastructure.

NOTE / 003 · FIELD NOTE / OPERATIONS
Many automation projects fail because they try to replace the core system. Often a layer that reads, structures, validates and prepares data before it enters the ERP is enough.
Orders · Email · Data entry · Integration

Quoting · Lead qualification · Human review · Workflow
