Fleet operations for the enterprise

We deploy fleets of agents that survive contact with production.

Most enterprise agent projects die somewhere between the demo and the deployment. Agentic Navy charts, commissions and crews fleets of AI agents that keep working inside your systems, under your governance, long after the pilot budget is spent. Every station has a named owner. So does every result.

Many agents. One heading.

The deployment gap

The hard part was never the model.

Agent capability stopped being the bottleneck some time ago. What still kills projects is everything around the agent: integration with systems that were never designed to be driven, evaluation criteria nobody wrote down, governance bolted on late, and no named owner once the launch team moves on.

~88%

of enterprise agent pilots never reach production

Every one of these is an operating failure, not an intelligence failure. A fleet that nobody commands, crews or maintains does not stay at sea.

What we actually sell

Anyone can build an agent. The question is who answers for it.

Building agents gets cheaper every quarter. Being accountable for what they do does not. We sell the layer almost nobody sells, and it is the only part of this work we will never hand to someone else.

01

The gate

Nothing joins the fleet until it clears a written evaluation threshold against production-shaped data. The threshold is agreed with you before we build, not defended after.

02

The warranty

If a station we commissioned drifts out of spec inside its refit warranty, we refit it at our cost. Work done badly becomes our problem, which is the only incentive that reliably produces work done well.

03

The name

One principal signs the architecture, the gate and the outcome. How the delivery team is composed is our decision and our risk. Who answers for the result is never in question.

The fleet board

If it is not on the board, it is not in the fleet.

Every agent we deploy has a station, a class, a watch, a named owner and written standing orders. One surface shows you what the whole fleet is doing right now, what it decided, and what is waiting on a human.

Autonomy is a setting, not a philosophy. Each station is commissioned with the level of human involvement its stakes deserve — fully autonomous for repeatable low-risk work, human on the loop wherever a wrong call is expensive to unwind.

Deployment

Four phases, in order, every time.

We run the same sequence whether the fleet is two stations or twenty. Skipping a phase is how projects end up in the numbers above.

01

Survey

A paid, fixed-scope chart of one business area before anything sails: where the work actually sits, which processes can carry a station, and what your data will realistically support. You get the map, including the parts that should stay human. The fee credits in full against commissioning.

02

Commissioning

Each agent is built for one station. Written standing orders, an evaluation threshold it has to clear, an audit trail, and a named owner on your side before it ever runs.

03

Sea trials

Stations run against production-shaped data and the edge cases a demo never shows. Nothing joins the fleet until it holds course under real load and dirty inputs. This is the gate, and it applies to everything we deliver regardless of who built it.

04

Station keeping

Observability, drift checks, cost ceilings, incident response and clean retirement. Fleets are operated, not launched. This is the phase most projects never budget for, and the reason most of them end.

Fleet composition

Five classes of agent. One bridge.

Specialised stations beat one large generalist. Each class is built for a narrow job it can be evaluated on, and a bridge agent routes work between them.

Survey

Read, gather, classify. Watch the systems you already run and surface what changed, before someone has to ask.

Reconciliation

Match records across systems that were never designed to agree, and escalate only the exceptions worth a human.

Response

Draft, reply and resolve inside your existing queues, with a human on the loop wherever the stakes require one.

Audit

Check the work of other agents and of people, on a schedule, against written policy rather than vibes.

Bridge

Orchestrate the rest. Route work, hold state across long-running tasks, and escalate when the fleet hits something it should not decide alone.

Where we go deepest

Exception triage on document-heavy work.

We are deliberately narrow. The work we know best arrives dirty, incomplete or outside policy, and today it is resolved by a person reading, deciding and writing it down — under audit exposure, with a result measurable per case. Insurance claims, logistics documentation exceptions, back-office reconciliation and academic records management look like different industries and fail in exactly the same ways. That is where our station classes and our evaluation corpus run deepest.

We take work outside that class. We price the learning honestly instead of pretending it is not there.

Pricing

We publish the shape of the invoice, not a number.

Every engagement is scoped, so the number is a conversation. The structure is not, and you should know it before the first call.

Survey
Fixed fee, fixed scope, fixed end date. Credited in full against the commissioning that follows, if there is one.
Commissioning
Fixed price per station, with a refit warranty on everything we commission.
Station keeping
Monthly per station, by watch level. Quoted with every commissioning. You can decline it, and we will tell you in writing what that means.
Advisory
Fixed-price phases, agreed before each phase starts.

No hourly billing. No open-ended discovery. No platform licence with our name on it.

Advisory

Not every problem is a fleet problem.

Two lines of work sit outside the fleet and run to the same standard. AI strategy, solution architecture and process redesign, for companies that want a senior partner accountable for the design rather than a supplier billing bodies. And AI enablement for educational institutions: adoption roadmap, use policy, tooling architecture, and the redesign of teaching and administrative practice. Both begin with the same paid diagnostic, and both are designed so your organisation can sustain the system after we leave.

Fit

Who this is for, and who it is not.

We work well with

Operations, transformation and technology leaders in organisations with document-heavy work, standing exception queues, compliance exposure and results measurable per case. Usually with one failed deployment already behind them, and a technical evaluator whose first question is about auditability.

We are the wrong call for

Website chatbots. Buyers who want a self-service platform and a login. Organisations whose data cannot carry the work — the Survey exists to say so early and in writing. And "put some AI in it, the board asked", with no process owner and no sponsor behind it.

Standing Orders

We write down how we work, and we sign it.

On a merchant ship, standing orders are what let the officer on watch decide alone at three in the morning: written, specific, and clear about when to wake the master. Ours are public. How stations are classed, how autonomy is set, what the evaluation gate actually tests, and what we learn breaking our own fleet — because we run our own stations for marketing, scanning and administration, and they get written up like any other.

Who runs this

One principal, and a bench behind him.

Agentic Navy is led by {{PRINCIPAL_NAME}}, AI Solutions Architect and Principal Consultant. He runs the Survey, sets the architecture, holds the evaluation gate and signs the warranty on every engagement. Delivery capacity is composed per engagement from our own harness and a qualified bench, so the size of the fleet is a decision about quality and not about one calendar.

Get started

Bring us a problem, not a use case.

We start with a Survey of a single business area. You get a chart of where stations can carry real load, what each one would cost to run, an evaluation plan, and an honest list of the work that should stay with your people. The fee credits against whatever comes next, including nothing.

We reply to every Survey request, including the ones we decline.
