The Foaster partnership
Built by Foaster.
Shaped around your firm.
Our Forward Deployed Engineers adapt the capabilities we’ve built to your methods, knowledge, and engagements. They extend them where your work requires it, and keep expanding what your team can deliver.
Built in the field
Built by delivering
the work ourselves.
We operated as an AI-native consulting firm, testing this approach with over 20 companies, including industry leaders across the US, Europe, and the Middle East. We now bring that technology to consulting firms and in-house teams.
Explore our work01We come to you
We start inside
your firm.
Our Forward Deployed Engineers work on site with your partners and consultants. We sit in on engagements, review the work you are proudest of, and map how your team investigates a question and turns it into advice.
That is how we identify what to configure, what to adapt, and where your team needs a specific extension.

- You size markets bottom-up
- Partners challenge before anything is drafted
02We configure Foaster
A shared foundation.
Configured for your firm.
We start with Foaster’s core agents, workflows, and capabilities. We turn your methods into skills agents can follow, connect your knowledge sources, and load your templates. Where your work requires more, we adapt the components or develop a specific extension.
Then we test it with your team on a real engagement and refine it until the work meets your standards. Confidential client information stays within its engagement.
It runs where the work requires: in your environment, or on-premise at your clients when their data cannot leave their walls.
- Foaster’s core capabilities, adapted to your firm
- Your methods, knowledge, and templates connected
- A first engagement delivered to your standards
- On-premise deployment at your clients, when they require it

03We run it with you
We keep it running,
and keep it improving.
AI infrastructure needs ongoing engineering. We maintain it and monitor the quality of the work. It is model-agnostic: we benchmark each new model, from any provider, against your own past engagements, so your team always runs on the one that does your work best.
Every week, we ship new capabilities and improvements, and turn the lessons your consultants approve into stronger methods for the next engagement.

Before you begin
Your questions.
Answered.
How do we get started?
We start with your team’s ambitions and a first engagement. Our Forward Deployed Engineers identify the Foaster capabilities you need, configure them around your methods and knowledge, and test the approach with your team. We develop specific extensions where the work calls for them.
Who maintains the infrastructure?
We do. A team dedicated to your firm maintains it, monitors the quality of the work, benchmarks new models on your past engagements, and ships improvements every week.
Which AI models does it run on?
The infrastructure is model-agnostic. We benchmark each new model, from any provider, on your own past engagements, and move your agents to it only when it does your work better. You are never tied to a single provider.
Can it run inside our client’s environment?
Yes. Foaster supports on-premise deployment: when a client’s data cannot leave their walls, your firm can run the engagement inside their environment.
Who controls the work?
Your consultants set the scope, guide the investigation, challenge recommendations, and approve the result. Agents carry the workstreams, with evidence and reasoning available for review.
What carries over to the next engagement?
Your team decides which lessons become approved methods and skills. Confidential client materials stay within their engagement; reusable expertise strengthens the shared foundation.
Beyond the platform
A dedicated team,
working alongside yours.
We develop the platform, maintain your deployment, and evaluate new capabilities. Our team adapts those advances to your work, so your consultants can concentrate on the people and organizations they advise.
