What We Do
Two Paths to AI-Powered Growth
At Straight Line Ops, we help businesses unlock the power of artificial intelligence in two distinct ways:
​​​
1. Product Co-Development
​
We partner with business leaders to turn bold ideas into industry-shaping AI solutions. By combining deep domain expertise with the latest advancements in AI, we co-develop tools that address shared pain points across a sector. These partnerships often extend beyond development: We help bring these products to market and share in their success.
​
2. AI Consulting for Operational Excellence
​
We work with businesses to design and deploy AI-powered automations that streamline operations, reduce costs and waste, and drive growth. Our approach blends technical execution with business insight. Whether building custom automations or implementing off-the-shelf tools, we begin with a deep analysis of current operations, evaluating workflows, data infrastructure, personnel, and strategic goals.
​
Our consulting is grounded in Lean Six Sigma principles, focusing on continuous improvements and the reduction of operational waste. The result is smarter systems, stronger teams, and faster, more cost-effective growth.
