Duke, the AI teammate, works inside every app.SmartDuke Custom AI
Need something only you have?
SmartDuke grew out of our studio, where we design and build AI products end to end: web applications, agents, assistants, internal tools and integrations. We still take on custom work, built with the same care as the platform.
How we build
AI that ships, not just demos.
Most AI work gets stuck somewhere between demo and production. A polished prototype gets a green light, then meets real inputs, real cost ceilings and real edge cases, and the cracks show.
The teams that ship treat AI as real software: evaluation suites, telemetry, guardrails, and the discipline to delay when something isn't ready. That's the bar we hold for ourselves, and for every engagement we take on.
