We raise the ceiling
on what's possible.
Simplefield is a technology partner that brings AI-native thinking to every engagement — whether or not AI is the deliverable.
The case for shorter, sharper engagements
We started Simplefield because shorter, high-intensity engagements deliver a higher multiplier effect. A focused sprint with a principal who thinks at the board level and still writes the code creates more value than months of meetings and slide decks.

Some of what we can offer.
Clear-cut offerings across strategy, engineering, and operations. Every engagement is principal-led and outcome-driven.
AI Strategy & Roadmaps
Board-ready AI strategies grounded in engineering reality — not vendor slide decks.
Custom AI Agents
Purpose-built autonomous agents that handle real workflows — not chatbot wrappers.
AI-Native Products
Full product development from concept to production — architecture, design, and ship.
Technology Advisory & Strategy
Due diligence, technical assessment, and fractional CTO counsel for portfolio companies.
Workflow Automation
End-to-end process automation that compounds — not just point integrations.
Design & Prototyping
Rapid prototyping and product design that validates ideas before you invest in engineering.
The problems we solve.
Your board is asking about AI and you need a strategy grounded in engineering reality — not vendor pitches.
You're acquiring a company and need an honest technical assessment before you close.
You have a product vision with AI at the core, but no in-house team to architect and ship it.
Your team is experimenting with AI tools but nothing is compounding — you need structure and coaching.
Recent work.
PE Portfolio AI Strategy
Board-level technical counsel for PE-backed portfolio companies navigating AI integration and M&A due diligence.

Enterprise AI Enablement

We build too.
Simplefield isn't just an advisory firm. We design, ship, and operate our own products — which means we face the same scaling, reliability, and AI challenges you do.
