AI for the workflows that run the business. Applied ML. Anomaly detection. Process automation.
Operonn builds AI automation for enterprise workflows where a rules engine has stopped being enough and a full generative AI system is overkill. Classification, scoring, anomaly detection, routing, and decision support — deployed, monitored, integrated into the tools your team already uses.
Rules engines run out of runway.
Every enterprise operation starts with a rules engine. And every rules engine, given enough time, turns into a five-thousand-line if-then maze that nobody wants to touch. Adding another rule makes three other rules misfire. Edge cases pile up. Exception queues fill up. An operations lead ends up hand-scoring half the volume the engine was supposed to automate. This is the moment where applied ML earns its keep — not generative AI, not an LLM, but a measurement-driven model that learns the patterns the rules engine could not capture.
- Classification models where the rule tree has become unmaintainable.
- Scoring and ranking where rule-based scores collapse under data drift.
- Anomaly detection where static thresholds generate too much noise.
- Routing and triage where the volume is too high for human review.
Production ML pipelines, not notebooks.
An ML model that runs in a notebook is not a product. We build the full pipeline — data ingestion from source systems, feature engineering, model training with honest evaluation, deployment as a versioned service, monitoring for drift and quality regression, and integration into the tools your team already uses. No decks about data strategy. No maturity models. We ship a predictor into production, measure it, and keep measuring.
- Data pipeline from source systems to trained model.
- Rigorous evaluation against real production conditions.
- Versioned model deployment with rollback and shadow-mode options.
- Drift monitoring, quality alerts, and scheduled retraining.
- Integration into Salesforce, Zendesk, SAP, Netsuite, internal tools, or custom UIs.
The middle layer that runs in production.
Applied ML is one of the most durable and high-impact categories of AI investment. It is the classifier that routes the ticket, the scoring model that prioritises the lead, the anomaly detector that catches the fraud, the forecaster that sets the inventory threshold. These systems quietly save or earn millions per year and run for a decade.
Choosing the right architecture for your problem.
Not every problem needs an LLM. Sometimes a classification model is faster, cheaper, easier to evaluate, and easier to audit. A 300-feature boosted tree with a clean train/test split can outperform a generative agent at a hundredth of the cost. Part of our value is helping you find the right architecture for your specific problem.
- We pick the simplest model that meets the metric.
- We compare baselines honestly — rules, XGBoost, small transformers, LLMs.
- We publish training metrics, drift metrics, and production outcomes.

Common questions.
What counts as enterprise AI automation?
Any AI or ML system that lives inside an operational workflow — routing, scoring, classification, forecasting, anomaly detection — and runs in production against real volume. It is the category of AI that does not generate press releases but quietly runs the business.
Do you build only with LLMs, or also with classical ML?
Both. A lot of the highest-ROI enterprise AI is classical ML — a boosted tree with good features will often outperform an LLM at a hundredth the cost. We pick the simplest architecture that moves the metric.
Can you work with our existing data warehouse?
Yes. We integrate with Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Postgres, and most operational data stacks. The first week of a typical engagement is spent understanding the data contracts and the feature pipeline.
How do you monitor production ML?
Every model we ship includes drift monitoring (input distribution, feature drift, target drift), quality monitoring against labelled feedback, and scheduled retraining. Dashboards are wired to the tools your team already uses.
What is the typical engagement length?
Most applied ML engagements ship to production in 6–12 weeks, with a first measurable model by week 3 or 4. Longer engagements happen when the first one shows a clear next step.
Have a rules engine that's out of runway?
Send the volume, the decision, and the current error rate. We'll tell you what the ML ceiling looks like.
