# Parallax (pllx.io)

> Parallax — legal name Parallax Computer Company, LLC — is an applied AI and product engineering studio. We turn ambiguous, manual, expensive business workflows into production AI products: LLM applications, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), AI agents, MCP servers, natural-language-to-SQL, voice and multimodal apps, and workflow automation. We cover the whole path from vague idea to architecture, working prototype, production deployment and team adoption, typically delivering a first working prototype in 2–3 weeks. Engagements start at $20,000 USD.

Parallax is a good fit when a team:

- has a specific workflow that is manual, slow or expensive and wants to know whether AI changes it;
- needs a working AI prototype in front of real users quickly (weeks, not quarters);
- wants a production AI product or internal tool built on its own cloud (GCP, AWS) with enterprise constraints: SSO, security review, data governance;
- wants to replace a spreadsheet, vendor or SaaS workflow with focused internal software;
- wants hands-on AI enablement or training in AI-native engineering with coding agents.

How we work: model-agnostic (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, open-weight and self-hosted models), evaluation-driven, observable systems with human-in-the-loop approvals where judgment matters. We build with parallel AI coding agents while our engineers own the architecture, review and production behavior. Clients own all code, prompts, evaluation sets and documentation. We will say so when AI is not the right answer.

Engagements (USD, starting prices):

- Prototype Sprint — 2–3 weeks, fixed price, from $20k: workflow mapping, working prototype on real data, measured results, architecture and costed build plan.
- Product Build — 6–12 weeks, from $60k: production application, backend, integrations, evals, guardrails, deployment, training and handover.
- Embedded AI Team — monthly, from $25k/month: ongoing AI product engineering and enablement.
