Independent AI engineering / Dallas, TX
Mellow AI designs and ships production systems for companies with ambitious, difficult problems.
Selected systems / Public and inspectable
Four systems we build and maintain in the open. Nothing here is a mockup — read the source, run the benchmark, install the package yourself.
The TypeScript line of openextract. One call takes a file to a validated Zod object — and a swarm runs several models over the same document, then reconciles their answers by merge, vote, or first success. An MCP server, a CLI, a terminal UI, and a local web cookbook ship with it.
Documents, images, audio, and video into a validated Pydantic model in one function call. Bring your own model — eleven providers work out of the box, and the same schema holds across all of them.
A portfolio integrity console for commercial leases. Define the fields that matter, stream an abstraction of every document, then reconcile the whole portfolio for conflicting terms and contradictions.
PDF to Markdown with nothing underneath it. The object-graph reader, the DEFLATE decoder, the font decoding, and the column and table heuristics all live in the crate.
How we work / No black boxes
We build inside your reality—not a demo environment. Every decision is made to create durable capability, not dependency.
Start a conversationWe map the system, pressure-test the opportunity, and define the smallest valuable release.
Senior engineers work directly with your team and ship into your environment.
The code, models, infrastructure, and operating knowledge are yours from day one.
