AI applications for Marketing.
Production-grade apps engineered for marketing and content teams.
SmartDuke builds ai applications for marketing and content teams — systems that ship full AI-native products end to end — brand, UX, AI engine, and infrastructure. AI search is disrupting traditional SEO. Citation rate is replacing rank position, and the brands building for GEO/AEO now will own the next decade of inbound. Our approach: One team, one stack, one engagement. Productized timelines from Discovery through Embed. Brand and product co-designed.
The problems
we keep solving.
AI search is disrupting traditional SEO. Citation rate is replacing rank position, and the brands building for GEO/AEO now will own the next decade of inbound.
Content velocity is the new moat
Brands that can produce more high-quality, original content per week win compounding advantages in both search and AI citations.
AEO/GEO is a new discipline most teams aren't trained for
Optimizing for ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews requires a different playbook than classical SEO.
Campaign analytics are fragmented
Pulling insights across paid, organic, email, and social means stitching dashboards together manually every week.
Three things we'd build
first.
Concrete starting points for ai applications in marketing and content teams. We pick the one with the highest leverage and the cleanest measurement story.
- Idea 01
Content-generation agent grounded in brand voice, with built-in editorial review loop
- Idea 02
AEO-optimization copilot that scores content against AI-citation patterns and suggests rewrites
- Idea 03
Campaign-analytics agent that synthesizes weekly performance and recommends reallocations
Production-grade,
from day one.
End-to-end on a single stack: brand and design system, product UX, agent or RAG engine, eval suite, observability, and rollout.
Evals before launch.
Every loop, tool call, and structured output is graded with a frozen test set and an explicit rubric. Failed evals block the deploy.
Telemetry from day one.
Traces, latency budgets, token costs, and error rates wired up before the first user touches the system.
Guardrails as architecture.
Input validation, output verification, escape hatches, and human handoff paths designed in — not bolted on after incidents.
Boring stack on the edges.
Cutting-edge model in the middle. Reliable infrastructure around it. Stability where it earns its place.
- ×Pilot purgatory — demos that never ship
- ×Scope creep when responsibilities are split across vendors
- ×Weak operations after launch
- ×Brand and product diverging because they were built by different teams

01How long does it take to build ai applications for Marketing?
How long does it take to build ai applications for Marketing?
Discovery is one week. A working prototype (Spark) is 2–3 weeks. Full production Build for marketing and content teams typically runs 8–12 weeks depending on data complexity, integrations, and compliance scope. We commit to a precise timeline at quote stage.
02What does pricing for ai applications typically look like?
What does pricing for ai applications typically look like?
Every engagement is scoped to outcomes, not hours. Discovery starts in the low four figures. Spark and Build are priced per project. Embed retainers are monthly. We return a quote within 24 hours of inquiry.
03Can you take over an existing apps project that's stalled?
Can you take over an existing apps project that's stalled?
Yes — it's a common engagement. We review what's there, tell you honestly what stays and what we'd rebuild, then ship it to production. Marketing engagements often start this way.
04What's different about your approach to ai applications?
What's different about your approach to ai applications?
One team, one stack, one engagement. Productized timelines from Discovery through Embed. Brand and product co-designed. We hold the same engineering bar across every engagement, regardless of industry — but the specifics for marketing and content teams are tuned to your trends and pain points.
Same capability, different industry.
