We design and build custom software, AI agents and connected systems: founder-led, fixed-price and fast.
Tern & Loom is an AI-native development studio. We build AI agents, custom software and connected systems for organizations putting AI into production. Our aim is a working first release in about four weeks at a fixed price agreed after scoping. Every project is led by the founder, who brings in specialist designers and engineers when the work needs them.
Every organization that takes AI seriously should run software built around how it actually works, not around what a vendor chose to ship.
To give ambitious organizations production-grade software and AI without enterprise cost or delay: scoped honestly, built quickly, documented properly and owned by the client.
How we compare with hiring a freelancer or a traditional agency.
We aim for a working first release in about four weeks instead of four to six months, because AI accelerates our engineering without cutting corners on quality.
Tests, security, monitoring and documentation from the first release. Not “MVP quality”, but software you can run.
Agents, retrieval, document pipelines, private models and human-approval design. We know where AI works and where it does not.
Your accounts, your code, your data and a clean handover. No lock-in to us or to a platform you did not choose.
Name the task, the person and the outcome. If a simpler process or an existing product solves it, that is a good answer.
Separate assumptions from measurements. Show the source, surface uncertainty and make the next action clear.
Define who owns the system, who reviews exceptions and what happens when something fails.
Short loops, working demos and decisions in writing. Momentum is part of quality.
Tool names describe our skills, not partnerships.
