About Latence

Built by one focused founder. Deployed with you.

I'm Dennis - founder, builder, and systems architect behind Latence.

I work directly with teams to get retrieval infrastructure running in their environment.

Not for you. With you.

Why solo is a feature

Small by design. Deep where it matters.

You work directly with the person designing the system, building the product, and making the technical trade-offs. That means faster decisions, less translation loss, and no consulting theater.

Direct accountability

The person you speak with is the one shaping the product.

Technical depth

Retrieval, model serving, and architecture stay in one set of hands.

Built together

The goal is a system your team can run, not a dependency to manage.

What I do with teams

I help teams turn messy company knowledge into working enterprise AI systems.

The hard part is rarely the model. It is the layer beneath it: fragmented data, weak retrieval, governance, and deployment constraints.

01

Prove what works

Start on real company data, not demos. Identify what is technically and economically viable.

02

Design what scales

Shape retrieval, data, and deployment around real constraints.

03

Operationalize what matters

Turn technical requirements into something your team can actually run.

Proof of work

Built in production. Proven where failure is expensive.

From retrieval infrastructure to enterprise copilots, the work behind Latence has already been tested beyond demos.

Built and led an AI lab from zero

Built the research, infrastructure, product, and commercial path from the ground up.

How we work

How I work with teams.

You bring the data, constraints, and environment. I bring the product, technical depth, and experience of getting retrieval systems running.

Outcome
Running retrieval stackA stack your team can own.
ProveDeployOperationalize

Start with the real problem

We begin on real data, not slides.

Work directly

Direct product and technical collaboration, without layers.

Build toward ownership

The handoff is a system your team can own and run.

Let's talk

If this is the kind of enterprise AI stack you want to build, let's talk.

Latence is for teams that care about retrieval quality, deployment control, and making AI useful on real company knowledge.

The waitlist is for the next enterprise release.
