A Lancehawks company · AI that ships.
Palanax builds AI that runs in production — inside the systems your business already uses, and on infrastructure you control. We take it from "where would this actually help?" to a working system your team depends on, every day.
Strategy and engineering under one roof, by the people who do the work.
Talk to an engineer, not a salesperson.
01The possibility
Imagine the repetitive work handled before anyone walks in. The answer to "have we dealt with this before?" coming back in seconds, with the source attached. Your team spending its day on judgment instead of data entry.
That's the version of your business we build toward — and then we make it real: deployed inside the tools you already use, reliable enough to trust, and kept running as you grow. You know your business. We bring the engineering that turns AI into something genuinely useful inside it.
You bring the ambition. We bring the build.
02How we work
We build — we don't just advise.
The person who scopes your project is the person who deploys it. No handoff between the deck and the code, because there is no deck and there is no handoff.
We do the hard parts.
Integration, reliability, error handling — the engineering that makes AI dependable enough to trust with real work. Years of shipping production systems — ERP, SaaS, infrastructure — is the background we bring to it.
We run it anywhere — including inside your walls.
Public cloud, your own cloud tenant, or fully self-hosted on your hardware when your data legally or competitively cannot leave. That last one is rare, and we do it well — the clearest proof of how deep our engineering goes.
When your data can't leave, the model comes to the data. Here's the difference, drawn:
Typical AI setup
exposedEvery prompt crosses your boundary into someone else's cloud.
The Palanax way
containedThe model runs inside your boundary. Nothing leaves.
03What we do
04How a project starts
04How a project starts
- 01
A free 30-minute AI Review.
We listen, ask hard questions, and tell you the three places AI is worth your money — and the ones to skip. You keep the ideas regardless.
- 02
A fixed-scope first build.
One outcome, one price, two-to-five weeks. You see real, working value before any ongoing commitment.
- 03
We earn the ongoing relationship.
If the first build works, the managed retainer is the natural next step — not the entry toll.
05Proof over promises
We'd rather show you than tell you. We publish what we build — the architecture, the real costs, and what broke along the way — before we ever ask you to trust us.
06Who we work with
Mid-market teams who know AI matters, have real workflows worth improving, and can't justify hiring a full-time AI engineer at six figures.
Professional services, healthcare, finance, and any business sitting on documents, knowledge, or IP that's too valuable to hand to someone else's cloud.
Based in Pune · working with teams across India, the UK, the EU & the US.
