Why “TEN%”.
Every department splits the same way. Ninety percent of the work is reading, drafting, chasing, reconciling, reporting. Work that needs doing, not deciding. The other ten percent is judgment: what to promise, what to charge, who to trust, what your company should sound like.
We build agents that take the ninety. And we build the infrastructure that carries your ten into everything they produce, so the judgment you give in one sentence reaches every draft, every price, every send.
That’s why it’s 90% of every department, and never 100% of one. What is left is the judgment, the relationships, the decisions only a human should ever make. We are called TEN% because that ten percent is the whole point, and freeing your best people for it is the job.
The orchestra plays itself. You conduct three bars.
What we believe
Three statements. No essay.
Intelligence lives in the model. Authority lives in code.
plainlyThe agent writes and suggests. A separate, boring, reliable program decides what is allowed out the door.
We do not replace a whole department. We find the repetitive work quietly running across your entire company and lift it out.
plainlyHow we find it is the part we are unusually good at, and it is the first thing we would show you.
Approval is scaffolding, built to sunset as the models earn it. Input is architecture: retiring approval never retires your voice.
plainlyOver time it needs less babysitting. It never stops asking what you want.
One precise sentence steers a thousand agent-hours.
Thinking ahead
Built for the next model, not the last one.
Most products in this space bolt an approval button onto everything and call it safety. Every approval is a tax on your attention, and as the models improve, the button becomes theatre. That’s scaffolding, and scaffolding is built to come down.
We design input points instead: the exact places where your judgment enters the work and steers everything downstream. Scaffolding gets removed as trust is earned. Architecture stays. Every model upgrade makes our systems more autonomous without ever making them less yours.
And because authority lives in code, with a deterministic layer re-checking every number before it touches the world, our agents ship work you can sign, not work you have to police.
It doesn’t guess.
It verifies.
Let’s talk
You bring the ten percent. We bring the rest.
