We bring artificial intelligence to your Java systems
Add LLMs, retrieval and agents to the Java and Spring Boot applications you already run — through hands-on consulting and Sprout, an open-source framework you can start using today.

Services
AI consulting, built for Java teams
Your platform already runs on Java. We help you add AI to it pragmatically — working with your architecture, not against it.
LLM integration
We connect models like Claude, GPT or open-source LLMs to your existing Java services behind clean, decoupled APIs.
RAG over your data
Semantic search and retrieval-augmented generation over your databases, documents and vector stores — keeping your data in your own infrastructure.
Agents & automation
We design tool-using agents (function calling) that act on your business logic safely and with full observability.
AI architecture & infra
Where models run, cost control, caching, evaluation, security and deployment — all designed for your current stack.
Tailored use cases
Internal assistants, classification, data extraction, automated support, product copilots — from prototype to production.
Knowledge transfer
We make sure the AI never stays a black box. Depending on what suits you, that can mean thorough documentation, a guided code handover, or hands-on sessions with your developers.
These are the engagements we take on most often, but they're not a closed list. If your project needs something else in this space — Java and AI — tell us about it and we'll figure it out together.
Open source
New & evolvingSprout AI Framework
The foundation we build on. Sprout is a young, fast-moving open-source framework that gives Java developers the building blocks for AI — model access, RAG, agents and tools — with an API that feels native to Java and Spring Boot.
Sprout is new and improving quickly. It evolves on two tracks at once: its own roadmap, and the real needs of the teams we work with — so features often land in production first and flow straight back into the open-source project.
- Clean abstractions over LLM providers
- First-class RAG and vector-store support
- Function calling and agent orchestration
- Idiomatic for Java and Spring Boot
- Open source and free to use

From idea to production, step by step
A pragmatic, low-risk approach designed to fit how Java teams actually work.
Discovery
We study your Java system, your data and the use case, then decide what genuinely creates value and what's feasible with AI.
Proof of concept
We build a working prototype on the Sprout framework to validate results and cost before investing further.
Integration
We bring the solution into your platform: APIs, security, observability and tests, integrated with your current architecture.
Production & handover
We deploy, measure and hand over with the documentation and support your team needs to own and evolve the AI — at whatever level of involvement works for you.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What if I need something that isn't listed here?
Just ask. The services on this page are our most common starting points, not a fixed menu. We're open to any AI-and-Java work in this space — from a one-off prototype to ongoing engineering — and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a good fit.
Do I need Sprout to work with you?
No. Sprout is the foundation we usually build on, but it's optional. We adapt to your stack and constraints — we can use it, extend it, or work without it entirely.
Is the Sprout AI Framework really free?
Yes. It's open source and free to use. You can read the code, use it in your projects and contribute on GitHub. Consulting is separate and optional.
Is Sprout production-ready?
Sprout is new and evolving fast. It's already useful for real projects, and when something is missing we often build it — both for our clients and back into the open-source project.
Which AI models do you work with?
We're provider-agnostic: Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI, and self-hosted open-source models. We help you choose based on cost, privacy and performance.
Does my data leave my infrastructure?
We design with privacy first. We can keep your data inside your environment and use self-hosted models when that's what you need.
