The Principal
Most AI consultants are either deeply technical with no business intuition, or strategic thinkers who can't build anything. Boxelder Analytics sits at a rare intersection — a practice where a machine learning background and a management consulting mindset occupy the same chair.
With roots in data engineering, ML systems, database architecture, and new venture creation, the work here is grounded in what actually performs in production — not in what sounds compelling in a presentation. Recommendations come with implementation behind them.
Boxelder Analytics maintains a deliberately small client roster. That is by design. Every engagement receives focused senior attention, not junior handoffs.
Every engagement is led by a senior practitioner. No junior handoffs, no templated deliverables.
A rigorous assessment of where AI can create real leverage in your organization — not a vendor checklist, but a diagnostic built on your actual data, workflows, and competitive context.
From RAG pipelines to fine-tuning strategy to prompt architecture, we design and implement language model systems that are maintainable, cost-efficient, and aligned with your operations.
We design and deploy autonomous AI agents that orchestrate complex workflows — reducing manual overhead, accelerating decisions, and creating compounding operational advantages.
AI is only as strong as the data beneath it. We architect the pipelines, warehouses, and governance frameworks that make intelligent systems actually intelligent.
Ongoing strategic advisory as a retained engagement — board-level AI strategy, vendor evaluation, team capability building, and continuous recalibration as the technology evolves.
For founders and new ventures embedding AI at the core — architecture decisions, build-vs-buy analysis, investor narrative, and go-to-market strategy grounded in technical reality.
How We Work
No sprawling discovery phases. No templated frameworks applied generically. Every engagement begins with listening, moves to diagnosis, and ends with something built.
A focused 2–4 week paid engagement to assess your AI readiness, identify the highest-leverage opportunities, and produce a concrete roadmap. This is how most retainer relationships begin — with a deliverable in hand and trust already established.
A monthly engagement that delivers both strategic guidance and hands-on implementation. You receive a defined set of monthly deliverables — not just access to a calendar. Engagements are structured around your actual priorities, revisited each month.
The AI landscape moves faster than any static strategy can track. Retainer relationships are designed for ongoing recalibration — adjusting your roadmap, evaluating new capabilities, and ensuring your advantage compounds rather than erodes.
