What we built, and what it changed.
Five projects, written up with the numbers we can share. Kaeonix is our own; the rest belong to the people who paid for them.
Avatar is trained on the engineering loop rather than on prose about engineering: read the repository, write the diff, run the tools, read the result. Tool calling is part of the model instead of a wrapper around it.
Around the model we built three surfaces on one account — Chat for long browser threads, Kaeonix Code for the terminal with plan mode and OS-level sandboxing, and the Avatar API for other people’s agents. Keeping the model compact is a product decision: the cost we avoid becomes included work on the entry plan.
Leave requests lived in one chat, QA notes in another, payslips in an inbox. Huddle put employee records, tasks, messaging, leave and payroll under a single permission model, then added an Avatar summariser that writes the standup from the week’s activity.
Ten months on, the parallel spreadsheet is gone. Onboarding takes eleven minutes of someone’s attention, and payroll closes the day it opens.
Daily invoicing, inventory movement and mixed cash-or-UPI payments, with credit purchases tracked against a customer rather than a memory. Role-based access lets several employees work one shop without stepping on the books.
Profit and loss now reads from the same records the shop floor writes, so planning next month’s stock is arithmetic instead of argument.
Every order now carries its own timeline: which stage it sits in, who touched it last, and when it is due out. Customers, order stages and product batches share one record, so a status call takes seconds.
A weekly forecast reads the last two years of throughput and flags the orders likely to slip, early enough to move labour rather than apologise.
An export business with strong products and a weak first impression. We rebuilt the catalogue and enquiry path around what an overseas buyer needs to verify before replying: specification, capacity, certification, lead time.
Inbound enquiries rose, and the ones arriving now come with a product name and a quantity attached.
Your case note is the next one.
We publish numbers when a client lets us. If that matters to you, say so early and we will agree what stays private.
