Service · STATE Entry Audit

An audit for LLM systems that already broke.

90 minutes. Top three gaps, ranked. A remediation plan you can hand to your team.

You shipped an LLM pipeline. It works in the demo. It fails in ways you can't reproduce. Post-mortems end with "the model did something weird." Each week's report to Risk or your CTO is getting harder to defend.

The STATE Entry Audit is a 90-minute architecture review against the five pillars: Structured, Traceable, Auditable, Tolerant, Explicit. The output is a ranked list of where your system breaks first, and the fix order that protects production while you work.

What you get

01 · The Call

90-minute architecture review

We walk your system end-to-end against the five STATE pillars. Live. Recorded. Your engineering team is welcome on the line.

02 · The Verdict

Top three production-risk gaps, ranked

Where your system will fail first, and why. Named pillar, named failure mode, named architectural cause. No vague advice.

03 · The Plan

Remediation plan with proof-of-done

What to fix, in what order, with concrete proof-of-done criteria your team can verify. Delivered as a written document you can hand off to engineering or Risk.

Reference rate

$750 USD

In exchange for a published case study after delivery. You approve every word before it goes live.

Limited to the first 8 reference engagements. Once filled, the rate moves to $1,250 USD.

Who this is for

  • You own an LLM pipeline in production. Failures are non-deterministic and post-mortems stall.
  • You're under compliance pressure (Law 25, OSFI, EU AI Act) and need an architecture you can defend in writing.
  • You want a second pair of expert eyes before the next stakeholder review, not a six-week consulting engagement.

Not for

Pre-production prototypes, generic AI strategy reviews, or teams looking for vendor-tool recommendations. This is an architecture audit for systems already in users' hands.
