What your experts know, built into a system.
We build software with your experts, weekly, in structured rounds, testing and adjusting as we learn. The result? A system shaped by everyone who actually knows the work, not just by us.
The sooner it's built, the more it compounds: more efficient now, more valuable to the business, proven before you spend.
Expert Intelligence Systems™: built with the people who know the work best.
Every expert carries knowledge that mostly lives in their head: the pricing call, the scheduling judgment, how they read a customer or a risk before it becomes a problem. We call that expert intelligence, and we build it into a system that scales across your organization. We call the result an Expert Intelligence System™, or EIS™.
Not just any EIS. The one the xDPF Method™ proves deserves the investment, so that by the time it's hardened into a full build, the evidence already shows where it matters most to your ROI.
Extract
Discovery structures your experts' judgment, the thing that currently lives only in their heads, into a first working EIS.
Validate
Controlled and Production Validation prove, with real usage and real data, which parts of that EIS actually earn a full build.
Scale
What gets hardened afterward is aimed exactly where the evidence points: for growth, or for a clean, credible handoff at sale.
And EIS aren't built by a junior developer off a spec sheet. They're built by people who've run real operations themselves, for the people who actually know the work, not just written to a spec. More on that below.
We measure opportunity through CARE™.
Before we recommend any investment, we look for real economic potential, not just a good idea. CARE is how we find it, and how we explain it.
Capacity Released
Less time lost to repetitive, fragmented work, more time spent on the judgment, expertise, and customer engagement only your experts can provide.
Avoided Headcount
Room to grow, in volume, complexity, or demand, without growing headcount at the same rate.
Recovered Opportunity
Revenue, initiatives, and decisions your team doesn't currently have the capacity to pursue, recovered once that capacity opens up.
Efficiency Improvement
Better information access, workflow, and decision support, so the team you already have accomplishes more with it.
We look for opportunities where Capacity Released, Avoided Headcount, Recovered Opportunity, and Efficiency Improvement have the potential to create at least $200K in annual economic value. That's a bar for whether an investment is worth making, not a promise of what any one engagement will deliver.
Different moment. Same gap.
The xDPF Method applies wherever the people who know the work best need real evidence before committing serious money to an idea.
Stage your business for the buyer who expects modern systems.
Today's buyers, especially the tech-savvy ones, discount a business for owner dependency: how much of it only runs because you're the one running it. We turn what's in your head into something a buyer can evaluate, whether that means modernizing a legacy system or building your first one from scratch. It's a real lever on the number you walk away with.
You already know what would make the work run better. It's just not built yet.
Every organization runs on a handful of things only its most experienced people truly understand: the pricing logic, the scheduling judgment, the way a risk gets read before it becomes a problem. We often see this in growing organizations in the $5M–$20M revenue range, though the same pattern shows up in institutions of very different scale. We build what your experts know into a custom Expert Intelligence System, designed to measurably improve how the work runs.
Something should exist that doesn't yet.
You have an idea for a product, a tool, or a new capability, and no way yet to know if it's worth building. xDPF turns that idea into evidence before anyone commits real money to building it for real.
Underneath all three is the same person: someone accountable for the outcome, making a high-stakes call with real budget and real time on the line.
Built to bridge the gap most people can't cross.
Turning your vision into operational reality takes two things most engagements only have one of: the technical depth to build systems that actually work, and the business instincts to know which problems are worth solving. xDPF has both, and it matters who's doing the building: Marco and Andrei bring real operating and ownership experience to every engagement, not just a portfolio of code.
15+ years in AI, data science, and behavioral transformation. Former Principal Data Scientist at Microsoft Research, where he built Azure AI Personalizer. Marco brings the technical depth to design systems of genuine rigor, built around how people actually change.
20+ years in SaaS, advanced manufacturing, and EdTech. Principal at Breakthru Achievement Solutions, co-founder of Smart Biology. Andrei brings the business instincts to know which problems are worth solving, and how to land solutions in the real world.
