Questions, answered
Questions and answers.
What is KO AI?
KO AI is an applied AI firm. We help mid-size and large organizations make their processes leaner with AI and ML, through consulting, development, forward deployed engineering (FDE) and training, through to a measurable business result.
What is the FDE model?
Forward deployed engineering (FDE) means our engineers and consultants work inside your organization. They map a process, redesign it around AI and ML, build it on your data and systems, and stay until it meets an agreed business target. See forward deployed engineering.
Where does KO AI work?
KO AI has offices in Tel Aviv, Prague and Porto. Our teams work on-site with clients across Europe and Israel, and remotely elsewhere.
Is KO AI the same company as Kuzmanko?
Yes. KO AI is the brand of Kuzmanko Consulting Ltd., founded by Jonathan Kuzmanko. Our Hebrew site for clients in Israel is kuzmanko.co.il.
How do you optimize business processes with AI?
We re-engineer real workflows around AI and agents, rather than bolting a chatbot onto what already exists: mapping where AI genuinely creates advantage, redesigning the process with human-in-the-loop control, and measuring it against operational KPIs. See AI consulting.
Can you build AI agents and multi-agent systems?
Yes. Enterprise AI agents and multi-agent systems are core to what we build, from a single task agent to orchestrated systems running in production and integrated into your CRM, ERP and existing tools. See AI development.
Do you build custom AI and ML systems, or only advise?
Both, with the emphasis on shipping. We build and train custom AI and ML models (generative-model tuning, RAG and data science) and run them in production with MLOps and LLMOps, from feasibility study to live system.
How do you keep AI costs under control at scale?
Through token-economy optimization: choosing the right model for each task, managing consumption dynamically, and continuously moving to the optimal model. It is an OpEx problem as much as a modeling one: maximum output at minimum cost.
How do you decide where AI is worth it, and where it isn't?
We start from the P&L, not the hype. AI goes where it creates measurable advantage or efficiency, and we deliberately avoid it where it doesn't, judgement that comes from having run real operations, not only advised on them.
How quickly can we go from idea to production?
Quickly, because the same team advises, builds and ships. We move from a feasibility study to a working system in production, and prove what the work was worth in the numbers.
Ready when your team is ready to ship. Not just to pilot.
