AX FDE · Forward Deployed AX Engineering

We build AX
where your work happens

Our engineers embed with your team, redesign the work around AI, build it themselves and see it into daily operations. We don't just send people — we leave working results and assets you can reuse.

What is FDE

What forward deployed AX engineering means

In Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE), engineers go into the customer's operations and solve the problem on the ground. That is how re:boot does AX: one team stays on it from understanding the work through AI-based redesign, build and adoption.

01

We start on the ground

We define the problem where the work actually happens, next to the people who know it best — not in a slide deck.

02

We build it ourselves

We don't stop at a diagnosis. The same team redesigns the work so AI does it, and builds the screens and agents that run it.

03

We make it stick

Only what the pilot proves gets expanded, and we leave working rules and AI skills behind so your team keeps using them.

Offer

Start small, and expand only what works

We begin with an on-site assessment and prove the impact with a pilot. After every stage you decide whether to continue, with no obligation to do so.

Domains

Any line of work

AX starts from the work, not the industry. Where our founder and team have worked before, we start faster with the domain knowledge we already have.

  • Manufacturing

    Orders, cost, profitability, quality, schedules

  • Finance & fintech

    Cards · loan brokerage · MyData

  • Commerce

    Luxury · cross-border · pre-owned luxury · official IP merch stores

  • Games

    Global portal · mobile games · H5 games

  • Advertising & rewards

    Ad monetization platform

  • Leisure & booking

    Lodging · golf booking

Not on the list? That's fine. The on-site assessment starts by finding where the rules of your workflow actually live.

How we work

AI does the work. People make the calls.

We work in the same order on site. AI drafts documents, writes and tests code and keeps the records; people approve scope and merges.

Lines AI can't cross — enforced by the system

01

No deletes or completion rollbacks for AI

Hard-to-undo actions are left out of the interface AI uses altogether. People do them in the web UI.

02

Only within the owner's permissions

AI works with credentials a person issued, and the server checks that person's permissions on every call.

03

The server enforces the order of steps

A step cannot start until the one before it is finished.

04

Scope grows only through approval

Approving a requirement is approving its scope. AI never adds work on its own.

05

People approve merges

AI writes the code but can't review its own work. Passing automated checks is the minimum bar, not approval.

Reusable assets

What stays after the project

Every engagement adds domain knowledge and tools, and the next one starts from there. If we've seen your industry and workflow before, we don't start from zero.

Domain knowledge

Business rules, procedures and data from the field, organised by industry and workflow.

AI skills for delivery

The path from requirement to release and record, fixed as AI skills so every task follows the same steps.

Integration and migration templates

Designs for connecting existing systems to AI agents, plus a procedure and forms for extracting and moving legacy rules.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is the on-site assessment really free?

Yes. A lead engineer and our CEO assess one workflow over two weeks and hand you an assessment report and a pilot proposal. We don't charge for it, and you're under no obligation to run a pilot afterwards.

Do we have to keep going after the pilot?

No. You decide after every stage whether to continue, based on what the pilot delivered and how it was evaluated.

How is pricing set?

Pilots are fixed price. We quote once we understand the workflow and scope, and there are no extra charges within the agreed scope. Changing the scope goes through approval again.

We're concerned about security. Can you work inside our environment?

We work within your security policies. Which data we touch and how AI models are used are agreed during the on-site assessment. AI only gets access to actions within the responsible person's permissions, and hard-to-undo actions stay with people.

How long does it take?

Two weeks for the on-site assessment, four weeks for Pilot S and eight weeks for Pilot M or L. Scaling up and adoption after the pilot are planned together once the pilot results are in.

Which workflow should we start with?

Good candidates are repetitive, hop between several screens and re-enter the same information more than once. If you're not sure, we choose one together during the assessment.

We're an IT services or consulting firm. Can we partner with you?

Yes. We want to deliver AX projects with IT services and consulting partners who know their clients' operations well. Leave your company and proposal in the form below.

Contact

Start with an on-site assessment

Tell us briefly about your company and the work. We'll book the earliest open 30-minute slot during business hours (weekdays 10:00–18:00 KST), send a Google Calendar invite with a Meet link, and confirm or adjust the time within one business day.

If you're an IT services or consulting firm that brings AX to clients, send partnership proposals through this form too.
