How we deploy
Forward-deployed means we sit with your desk, not behind a ticket queue.
Every deployment is fitted to one company: its fleet, accounts, ports, house formats and who approves what. Here is how it runs, from the first call to the monthly watch.
From first call to live desk
Six steps. No platform migration.
Discovery at the desk
Walk us through a Monday. Which mailboxes, lists and spreadsheets, which checks slip when it gets busy, who decides what. You leave with a map of where an agent helps and where it should not.
Proof on your own examples
On a small, anonymized set of your emails, recaps and schedules, we show what the agent would read, flag and draft, before anything is installed.
Installed on your hardware
A Mac in your office, owned by you. We install and harden it on-site or remotely: no public access point, a command guard on everything the agent runs, sending blocked at the mailbox.
Fitted to your company
We connect the approved mailboxes and folders, turn your documents into a structured company wiki, and teach it your fleet, accounts, ports, CP habits and house formats.
14-day Launch Watch
Your team uses it on live work while we watch closely, correct its mistakes and tune what it reports. Longer where the proposal says so.
Always-On Watch
Monthly care from then on: tested updates, security reviews, and review of its real work so it keeps getting sharper.
What gets installed
One small machine. A complete working setup.
- The machine
- A Mac mini or similar in your office, bought by and registered to your company.
- The agent runtime
- OpenClaw, the open-source agent gateway, at a version we have tested and pinned.
- Channels
- WhatsApp for the desk. Your mailboxes connected for reading and drafts only.
- Company wiki
- PDFs, recaps, CPs and attachments turned into structured markdown the agent can search: vessels, accounts, ports, clauses, desk rules.
- Memory
- A search index on the machine itself. Corrections from the desk become lasting rules.
- Scheduled work
- The morning board, laycan and notice watches, weekly reports. Quiet unless something changed.
- Shipping skills
- Laycan feasibility, voyage and TCE estimates, noon-report performance, recap checks, cargo matching.
Who decides
It prepares the work. Your people make the calls.
Reads and checks
Every list, recap, line-up and noon report, with the source of each figure.
Drafts
Replies, indications, recap comments and notices, waiting in your mailbox.
Never on its own
Quote, counter, lift subjects, fix, send or instruct the vessel.
The model
The brain can change. Your company knowledge stays.
The language model is a replaceable part. We start with a leading model on your company's own subscription and switch only after a new one has been tested on your workflows. The wiki, memory, rules and skills stay on your machine throughout.
Discovery call
Walk us through a Monday on your desk.
We will show you where a Full-Time Agent gives your team time back, and where it should not be used. No pitch deck.
