Most AI agents get shipped like scripts — and Gartner says 40% get decommissioned by 2027. We build the kind that survive production: your first agents live in your operation in 30 days. Guaranteed.
Your AI pilot is still a pilot. In 30 days I put your first agents live in your operation — embedded in the tools your team already uses, governed like workers, measured against one number. Then we keep building toward the agentic capability your whole team runs on.
Not a chatbot on the side of someone's desk. Production agents — with evals on real cases, a human in the loop where mistakes cost, one owner, and a number on the board.
The model was never the hard part. These five things are the difference between an agent that survives the floor and one that gets quietly switched off.
The agent lives where the work already happens — inside the tool your team uses, not a separate app nobody opens.
Measured accuracy on your actual historical data before it ever touches a user. No toy prompts.
A person approves anything where a mistake is expensive. Governed like a worker, not provisioned like a script.
An hours-saved or error-rate number, and a champion who defends it at budget time. Not a science project.
One working agent beats a grand platform. Land it, prove it, then build the next — the engine compounds.
That's the whole game. The agents that last are built — not demoed. That's the craft Takumi Labs sells.
The Pilot-to-Production Sprint and the Agent-Ops that keeps it running. Out of pilot, into the P&L — governed to survive.
Once the agents run, the deeper win: modern planning + AI forecasting that cuts stockouts and overstock at once.
As VP of AI at a $250M furniture manufacturer, I shipped AI into real operations and ran the planning that kept the business stocked. I watched most "AI initiatives" die in the demo — and learned what it takes to make one survive a Tuesday on the floor.
Takumi Labs is that craft, for manufacturers your size: too busy for a science project, too lean for a Big-4 retainer.
A 15-minute call. I'll tell you the one agent worth building first, what it'd save, and whether it's worth doing at all. No pitch.
