# Platforms we’ve built, and the contracts they helped win.

Where work was delivered through a client’s own customers, we say exactly what our role was. Confidential clients stay confidential.

## Selected work

U.S. Transportation Security Administration  U.S. Department of Energy  

AI data platforms

### The AI data platform behind MLtwist

We designed and built the platform MLtwist runs its AI data business on — projects, people, labeling and Kubernetes pipelines.

Platform overhaul

Confidential client

Connected-device software

### An AI-first platform rebuild behind a company’s pivot

One platform for a new embedded Linux product, running on a laptop, in AWS and air-gapped on-prem. Built so the client’s own team could finish the overhaul with AI in under two weeks.

### Your platform could be the next one here.

Most engagements start with a scoping call and a written plan.

> Axio engineered the platform MLtwist runs on — how we manage projects and people, run labeling, and launch custom pipelines on Kubernetes. It’s the foundation we deliver our public sector work on. They build like owners, and they ship.

David Smith

Founder & CEO, MLtwist

## The shapes our projects usually take

Typical starting points and end states, not individual case studies. If one looks like your situation, that’s a good first call.

### New division → in market

**FROM:** A new product line with a launch date and no engineering team of its own.

**TO:** Product site, portals, billing, integrations and cloud infrastructure — built, launched and handed off.

### Stalled pilot → fielded product

**FROM:** Hardware works, SIMs are active, the project has stalled on software.

**TO:** Firmware command handling, cloud pipeline, OTA and a fleet console — shipped as a fixed-scope build.

### Scripts & spreadsheets → data platform

**FROM:** AI data work held together by one-off scripts, email and manual QC.

**TO:** Project, workforce and labeling management with Kubernetes pipelines per project.

### Hand-built cloud → infrastructure as code

**FROM:** Console-built environments on AWS, GCP or Azure that nobody can reproduce.

**TO:** Terraform/OpenTofu foundations, CI/CD and ongoing IaC support.

### Wi-Fi-only device → dispatchable

**FROM:** An energy device that depends on customer Wi-Fi and can’t join utility programs.

**TO:** A cellular command path, a utility/aggregator interface and M&V telemetry.

### Aging platform → fast and affordable

**FROM:** A platform that got slow and expensive as it grew.

**TO:** Profiling, targeted fixes, cost reduction and incremental rewrites — no feature freeze.
