120+ engagements · 40+ AI systems in production

AI-driven consulting for outcomes, not experiments.

AltQube moves applied intelligence out of the lab and into the places it changes numbers — the plant floor, the risk engine, the product your customers actually use. Deepest in automotive and manufacturing, with fintech and AI-native product teams close behind.

What we do

Six practices. One operating discipline.

AI is the through-line — but intelligence only compounds when the data, platform and product beneath it are engineered properly. We do all of it, with the same senior team.

AI & Applied Intelligence

Vision inspection, predictive maintenance, agentic systems and LLM applications — designed with evaluation, guardrails and governance from day one.

Explore practice

Data & Analytics Engineering

Lakehouse architectures, streaming pipelines, data contracts and semantic layers — the foundation every credible AI program stands on.

Explore practice

Automation & Process Intelligence

Process mining, intelligent document processing and agentic workflows — from supplier onboarding to warranty adjudication, with humans in the loop where it matters.

Explore practice

Cloud & Platform Modernization

Migration, platform engineering, SRE and FinOps across AWS, Azure and GCP — built so your teams ship faster and your run-rate goes down.

Explore practice

Digital Product Engineering

AI-embedded products for web and mobile — discovery, design systems and delivery by cross-functional pods that own the outcome.

Explore practice

Quantitative & Decision Intelligence

Demand, capacity, pricing and network optimization — models with documented assumptions and quantified confidence, built for decisions that carry real cost.

Selected work

Problems we've solved on the line.

Every engagement is measured against a business metric agreed before we start. Here are three from automotive and manufacturing floors.

They walked the shop floor before opening a laptop.

“We'd already burned eighteen months on AI pilots that never left the slide deck. AltQube was the first partner that walked the shop floor before opening a laptop — and had something running on the line inside a quarter.”

IT consulting & talent solutions.

Not every problem needs a model. When you need experienced engineers, a managed delivery pod, or specialist skills at short notice, we staff from the same senior bench that runs our AI work — so quality never drops between engagement types.

  • Staff augmentation & managed podsContract, contract-to-hire and permanent — scoped to your delivery model.
  • Specialist & hard-to-fill rolesData engineers, ML engineers, platform SREs, security and QA specialists.
  • Legacy modernization & supportApplication maintenance, technical debt reduction and evergreen upgrades.

Industries

Where our patterns already exist.

Automotive and manufacturing are our home ground. Fintech and AI-native product teams are where that same rigour transfers most directly — reference architectures and evaluation datasets you don't pay us to acquire.

Automotive OEM

Body shop, paint, assembly, quality gates and launch readiness.

Auto Components & Tier-1

Machining yield, traceability, PPAP evidence, customer scorecards.

Discrete Manufacturing

OEE, predictive maintenance, vision inspection, energy intensity.

Supply Chain & Logistics

Supplier risk, inbound planning, route and network optimization.

Aftermarket & Service

Parts demand, warranty analytics, dealer and service intelligence.

Fintech & Financial Services

Credit risk, fraud detection, underwriting and reconciliation.

AI-Driven Products

AI-native applications, copilots and intelligent platforms.

Mobility & Connected Vehicle

Telemetry platforms, fleet intelligence, EV battery analytics.

How we work

A method designed to kill bad ideas early.

Most failed AI programs failed at framing, not modeling. We front-load the hard questions so the build phase is boring — in the best possible way.

01

Frame the decision, not the technology

We start with the business decision you're trying to improve and the metric that proves it. If AI isn't the right lever, we'll tell you in week one — that's cheaper for both of us.

02

Assess the data reality

An honest audit of what your data can actually support today. Most roadmaps break here, so we surface the gaps before they become a delivery risk instead of after.

03

Prove it on a thin slice

One narrow, end-to-end path to production in weeks — with an evaluation harness, not a demo. Real users, real data, real failure modes, measurable baseline.

04

Harden and scale

Observability, guardrails, cost controls, human-in-the-loop design and a governance model your risk function will actually sign off on.

05

Transfer the capability

Documentation, runbooks and paired delivery so your team can operate and extend the system without us. Dependency is not our business model.

Client voices

What partners say after go-live.

Plant heads, quality leads and CIOs — in their words. Hover to pause.

They pushed back on our original scope and proposed something smaller and sharper. It shipped in seven weeks and paid for the whole engagement inside two quarters.
VP
VP, Manufacturing Operations
Auto components group · Pune
Our quality team was sceptical about vision inspection — they'd seen two failed attempts. AltQube ran it in shadow mode for six weeks until the line supervisors trusted it themselves.
QH
Head of Quality
Passenger vehicle OEM
The evaluation framework they built is now how we assess every AI vendor that walks through the door. That alone changed how we buy.
HD
Head of Data & Analytics
Tier-1 automotive supplier
Downtime on our press line used to be a monthly firefight. It's now a planned maintenance conversation. That shift is worth more than the model itself.
PM
Plant Manager
Stamping & body-in-white facility
We engaged them for engineers and ended up with an advisory relationship. The people they placed were genuinely senior — no bait and switch.
CT
Chief Technology Officer
Mobility technology scale-up
Forecast accuracy went from something we argued about to something we plan against. Our safety stock came down without a single stockout.
SC
Director, Supply Chain
Commercial vehicle manufacturer
They spent the first week on the floor with our technicians, not in a boardroom. It showed in what they built.
MH
General Manager, Maintenance
Multi-plant manufacturing group
Handover was genuine. Six months on, our own team is extending the platform without calling us back into a support contract.
CI
Chief Information Officer
Auto components manufacturer
Engagement models

Structured around your risk appetite.

Start small and prove it, or bring us in to own a program end to end. Every model is priced against a defined outcome.
