Stop hiring. Stop waiting. Get your CTO-level tech team — today.
We embed as your fractional engineering partner — aligning with your business, owning the architecture, and shipping production-grade product fast.
We Don't Sell Services
We solve the exact problem your startup is stuck on — right now.
"Your launch is in 3 weeks and your tech lead just quit."
→ We've been here before. We jump in, assess in 48 hours, and ship.
"Your AI feature works in the demo but breaks in production."
→ We've debugged this exact problem. We fix it and make it stay fixed.
"Investors want a working product by next month."
→ We've shipped MVPs under pitch-day pressure. This is our normal.
"Your billing is broken and you're losing revenue every day."
→ We've built payment infra for production systems. We stop the bleeding fast.
Bring us your product.
We'll tell you exactly what it needs.
Any stage. Any stack. Any mess. We've seen it all — broken codebases, missed deadlines, AI features that don't work in prod, billing systems held together with duct tape. We don't judge. We fix.
One free call. No pitch. No deck. Just an honest conversation about your product and what needs to happen next.
Things we've shipped in production
AY Labs isn't for everyone.
We'd rather be honest upfront than waste your time — or ours.
Don't hire us if...
You want the cheapest option
We're not a body shop. We're a senior engineering team — priced accordingly.
You need 40-page specs before writing line one
We work iteratively. If you can't move until everything is documented, we'll frustrate each other.
You want someone to just execute tickets
We'll push back on bad ideas. That's part of what you're paying for.
You're not ready to ship
We move fast. If approvals take weeks on your end, the engagement won't work.
Work with us if...
You need production-grade systems, not prototypes
We've built infra that handles real load, real payments, and real users.
You're moving fast and need to catch up
We embed quickly, ramp in days, and start delivering in the first week.
You want engineers who've done this at real companies
Our work is in production at US startups right now — not in a portfolio deck.
You want a team that treats your product like their own
We challenge assumptions, protect your roadmap, and own delivery end to end.
Sound like a fit? Let's talk.

Not demos. Not side projects. Real systems we've delivered for US and global clients — running at scale.
AI SaaS Platform — Silicon Valley, USA
Challenge: Needed a production-grade AI orchestration layer routing requests across multiple LLM providers based on cost, latency, and capability — without vendor lock-in.
Solution: Delivered a multi-model orchestration platform with GitHub-based onboarding, OAuth integration, secret detection, and Stripe-powered token billing. Full backend architecture from scratch.
Outcome: API throughput scaled from 300 → 1,000 concurrent requests. DB calls reduced by 50%. Billing and webhook failures eliminated in production.
Stack: Python, FastAPI, AWS, Stripe, OpenAI, PostgreSQL, Redis
Engagement: Ongoing engagement
Global Payments Platform — USA
Challenge: Core payment execution needed to handle routing across global PSPs, digital wallets, card networks, and bank acquirers across US, EU, and LATAM with zero tolerance for failure.
Solution: Built backend services within the live payment execution path — routing logic, acquirer-specific processing, idempotent flows, retries, and async workflows handling real money movement.
Outcome: Production-grade reliability across multiple payment methods and regions. Full reconciliation, auditability, and failure recovery in live payment infrastructure.
Stack: Python, PostgreSQL, AWS, Stripe, Global PSP APIs
Engagement: 7-month engagement
LLM Document Processing Platform — USA
Challenge: Needed a scalable backend to process large volumes of unstructured documents using LLMs — with fast vector search and low-latency retrieval for downstream workflows.
Solution: Built LLM-powered document processing pipelines on AWS Bedrock with FastAPI. Designed vector search infrastructure for classification and retrieval over large unstructured datasets.
Outcome: Reduced manual processing by 70%. Accelerated government submission approvals. Full pipeline from document ingestion to structured output.
Stack: Python, FastAPI, AWS Bedrock, LangChain, OpenSearch
Engagement: 5-month engagement
SaaS Startup — Voice Bot Lead Qualification
Challenge: Sales teams were burning hours on unqualified calls. Needed a fully automated system to qualify leads and book meetings without human intervention.
Solution: Built a voice bot that qualifies inbound calls, scores leads in real time, and schedules meetings directly on the sales calendar — end to end, no human in the loop.
Outcome: 200% increase in qualified leads passed to sales. Sales team reclaimed 15+ hours per week.
Stack: Node.js, Twilio Voice API, React, AWS Lambda
Engagement: 2-month engagement

OngoingWeekly demos, tight feedback loops, and daily async updates. You always know what's done, what's next, and what's blocked.
Who We Are
Most agencies give you a team.
We give you ownership.
We've built payment systems handling real money across US, EU, and LATAM. We've scaled AI platforms from 300 to 1,000 concurrent requests. We've shipped LLM pipelines that are in production today. Not in a lab. Not for a portfolio. For real clients, under real pressure.
When you work with AY Labs, a senior engineer joins your Slack on day one. No onboarding decks. No project managers playing telephone. Just someone who's done this before — who'll push back when you're wrong and ship fast when you're right.
