AI Consulting Services

I help startups and enterprises move from AI proof-of-concept to production.

I am Saurav Kumar, Founder and CEO of xAGI Labs, a two-time Y Combinator founder, and an applied AI engineer focused on LLM products, data pipelines, and agentic systems that improve business outcomes.

Who I Work With

  • Founders who need a practical AI roadmap, not generic AI advice.
  • Product and engineering teams shipping LLM features under cost and reliability constraints.
  • Companies that have an AI demo but need production architecture, guardrails, and measurable ROI.

What I Can Help You Build

1. AI Product Strategy and Feasibility

  • Identify high-leverage use cases for your business.
  • Validate technical feasibility before major spend.

2. End-to-End LLM Engineering

  • LLM fine-tuning and domain adaptation.
  • Retrieval and knowledge pipelines for private data.
  • Agent workflow design, evaluation, and failure handling.
  • Cost and latency optimization for production inference.

3. Fractional CTO and Technical Advisory

  • Build-vs-buy decisions across model providers and tooling.
  • Hiring plan and execution standards for AI teams.
  • Architecture reviews for reliability, safety, and scale.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of companies should reach out?

Seed to growth-stage startups and enterprise teams building LLM-enabled products, internal copilots, or domain AI workflows.

Do you only advise, or do you build too?

Both. I do strategic advisory and hands-on engineering depending on your team setup and timeline.

Can you help with an existing AI system that is underperforming?

Yes. A common engagement is auditing an existing system and improving quality, reliability, and cost-efficiency.

Do you work as a fractional CTO for AI?

Yes. I support founder-led teams that need senior technical guidance without a full-time executive hire.

Do you support multi-model setups (OpenAI, Anthropic, open models)?

Yes. I help design provider-agnostic architectures with routing and fallback strategies when appropriate.
