# AI consulting and development in Boston, MA > Biotech and pharma along the Cambridge and Seaport corridors, the research universities feeding them, and one of the largest concentrations of institutional money in the country share a subway line and a rule. If you're on either side of it, a number has to be traceable to what it was read from. Canonical: https://www.techfabric.com/ai-development-boston Serving: Boston, Cambridge, Somerville, Waltham, Providence, Worcester Headquarters: 1530 E Williams Field Rd, Ste 201, Gilbert, AZ 85295. No office in Boston. --- ## Why Boston work is our work Your AI pilot looked good in the demo, and now it's stuck because nobody can show which document each answer came from and your engineers are booked on the roadmap. Our senior engineers take it to production with your team, building retrieval that cites its sources, agents with approval gates and evals on every change. Kendall Square's biotech labs and the Financial District's asset managers work under that rule, and so do Longwood's hospitals. ## AI consulting in Boston AI consulting in Boston starts where provenance is already a requirement, in a Kendall Square research team, a fund on State Street or a Longwood hospital network. Each needs to know which documents a model read before anyone trusts its answer, so the first engagement maps the sources, the reviewers and the evidence each use case needs before anything is built. [AI consulting in Phoenix](https://www.techfabric.com/ai-consulting-phoenix) ## Work a buyer here would recognise Reconciling lab, trial or portfolio data from many systems means seeing exactly where a record failed, which is what the Temporal pipeline built for Athlinks gives. It stitches together more than 400 million athlete records from disparate sources, with granular control, automatic retries and real-time visibility. ## Validation is part of the build Boston's biotechs in Kendall Square and the Seaport keep FDA-bound records under 21 CFR Part 11, which requires secure, computer-generated, time-stamped audit trails, and a changed record can't obscure what was there before. Massachusetts adds 201 CMR 17.00, so a Financial District fund holding a resident's personal information must keep a written information security program. ## Questions ### Do you work under GxP or 21 CFR Part 11? We build to the requirements those impose, which is a replayable pipeline, an immutable record of what changed, and access resolved at read time. Formal validation is your quality team's process and we support it with systems designed to be validated rather than systems that have to be explained afterwards. ### Do you have an office in Boston? The office is in Gilbert, Arizona, with teams in Amsterdam, Dnipro and Hyderabad. Delivery is remote or hybrid, and we travel for discovery, workshops and the opening weeks of a build. ## What ai consulting and development covers ### Agents that hold state A task that runs for three days, calls six systems and waits twice on a person cannot live in a request handler. We build agents on a durable runtime, so a deploy in the middle of a run does not lose the run, and a retry does not send the same email twice. ### Retrieval that cites what it used An answer nobody can trace is an answer nobody can defend. Retrieval is built so every response carries the documents behind it. ### Evaluation, before and after Without a score, every prompt change is a matter of opinion. We put deterministic scorers and model-based judges in front of the thing so a change ships with a number attached rather than with a feeling. ### Human approval where it belongs Some actions should stop and wait for a person. That gate is part of the system rather than a policy document, so an agent that wants to issue a refund pauses, the approval is recorded, and the run picks up where it left off. ### Cost you can see Model spend, retrieval infrastructure and the review time a system still needs are the numbers that decide whether it stays live after the first quarter. They get instrumented at build time, not discovered on an invoice. ### Governed data access An agent reads through the same grants a person would. On Databricks that is Unity Catalog, so a model that tries to reach a table it has no grant for fails the way any principal fails, rather than because the prompt asked it nicely. ## Working with us from Arizona Arizona does not observe daylight saving, so we are two hours behind you from November to March and three hours behind from March to November. That leaves most of your afternoon overlapping our morning, which is usually enough. Most delivery is remote or hybrid. We travel for discovery, workshops and the opening weeks of a build.
