Delivery, rebuilt for the agentic era.
We embed Forward Deployed Engineers inside your organisation to ship a working MVP in weeks, iterate on real feedback, and get paid on adoption and business impact — not hours logged.
- 0 wks
- Avg. time to MVP go-live
- 0:1
- Engineer-to-overhead ratio
- 0%
- Outcome-based pricing
Why now
The old delivery model doesn't survive contact with agentic AI.
Agentic AI doesn't change what gets built — it changes how fast it ships, and what "done" means. Four things had to change.
Project Structure
Months-long engagements ending at Go-Live.
MVP Go-Live is day one — the start of outcome measurement.
Success Metrics
On-time, on-scope, on-budget delivery.
Real user adoption and measurable business impact.
Commercial Model
Fixed-price and time & materials billing.
Performance-based pricing tied to agentic productivity gains.
Governance
Slow-moving IT vs. Business gatekeeping.
Lightweight governance built for teams shipping in days.
Who delivers it
One engineer, four disciplines.
We don't send developers. We embed Forward Deployed Engineers who combine technical depth, business fluency, and a bias for shipping.
Technical Expertise
- API & integration fluency
- Data strategy and ETL
- Cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP)
Business Acumen
- Deep vertical industry context
- Maps processes, finds the real pain points
- Identifies high-impact, buildable use cases
Delivery Mindset
- Prototypes with 60% of requirements defined
- Working software over documentation
- Iterates on live customer feedback
Customer Centricity
- Speaks both technology and business
- Manages stakeholders directly
- Stays engaged as the project scales
How it scales
No lone wolves. A pod, backed by a nervous system.
FDEs work inside a flat, peer-supported pod — not alone — and draw on a shared knowledge stack that lets the firm compound in value instead of resetting on every engagement.
Connectivity
Reach & Integration
Open protocols like MCP and standard APIs plug into any client environment in hours, not weeks — with zero vendor lock-in.
Skills
Specialization
A living skills factory turns hard-won engagement lessons into owned, reusable IP — so delivery starts from accumulated capability, not a blank page.
Conventions
Local Behaviour
The last-mile layer: client-specific compliance rules and do-not-touch zones, so every deployment is locally correct, not just generically right.
The path
MVP → Scaled Deployment → BAU
MVP
Path to value
Prioritize the right use case and start fast, backed by FDE capacity and a KM stack that's ready on day one.
Scaled Deployment
Beyond the pilot
Solve post-MVP roadblocks with SMEs and a scaled delivery organization, disciplined by the Conventions layer.
BAU
Sustained impact
Hand off from scarce FDE resources to a cost-effective, AI-augmented delivery team without losing momentum.
Careers
Help build this from zero.
AgenticForward's founding team is being assembled now. Every hire builds the operating model, rather than inheriting one that already exists.
Ground-floor leadership
Every founding hire builds the operating model, rather than inheriting one that already exists.
Backed, not bootstrapped
Tenth Revolution Group provides the network, brand, and shared Talent Acquisition and HR services, so founding hires can focus on the practice, not the back office.
A real technical moat
The agentic Knowledge Management stack is the product, not a slogan. Every role builds it, sells the outcome it produces, or protects the economics that make it defensible.
Elite by design
The engineer-to-overhead ratio is a defended operating discipline, held by the founding team from day one.
