Embedded engineering
Work inside the problem
Engineers join the operating context, map the decisions, and build with the people who run the work.
Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE)
AI agents that run in production.
Turn operating knowledge into agents that work inside real systems, with the evaluations, controls, and ownership production requires.
Who it is for
For leaders past the demo stage.
Forward deployed engineering (FDE) places our engineers inside your team to build AI automation for the business processes you already run.
BlackSpeer works with COOs and CTOs at mid-market companies that have a defined workflow, valuable operating knowledge, and a clear reason to put an agent into daily use.
Your team knows the work. We help translate that knowledge into a production system with explicit behavior, controls, and ownership.
What you actually get
The full path from agent design to handoff.
Embedded engineers work with the people who understand the workflow and the systems around it.
Agent design
Define behavior and boundaries
Tasks, tools, context, escalation paths, and human review are made explicit before release.
Evaluations
Test the work that matters
Evaluation cases reflect the real workflow so behavior can be checked throughout delivery.
Deployment and handoff
Put the agent into operation
We deploy, document, train your team, and transfer ownership of the production system.
How the engagement works
A direct route into production.
Each step turns operating context into a system your team can run.
-
01
The 15-minute call
Bring the workflow and the production outcome. We confirm fit and the next useful step.
-
02
Scoping
We define the agent's job, system access, evaluation plan, release path, scope, and quote.
-
03
Build sprints
Embedded engineers build and test usable increments with your operators and technical team.
-
04
Production handoff + training
We deploy, document the system, train the owners, and transfer the running agent.
Proof points
Production is the standard.
Real workflow fit
The agent is designed around the systems, decisions, and handoffs that already shape the work.
Behavior you can evaluate
Defined evaluation cases give the team a practical way to check behavior before and after release.
A clear owner
Documentation and training give your team the context to operate the system after handoff.
Frequently asked questions
What is forward deployed engineering?
Forward deployed engineering puts engineers inside your team so operating context shapes the agent, its controls, and its release.
What does AI automation of business processes look like?
AI automation of business processes turns repeatable operating work into a controlled agent workflow. People retain review and ownership where judgment is required.
What does an engagement cost?
Fixed scope, quoted after the 15-minute call.
