Your partner for AI scaling success

ABOUT TECH 42

Don’t let anything stand in the way of your AI transformation

We founded Tech 42 after seeing too many promising AI projects fail. Not because of bad ideas, but because of infrastructure challenges, runaway costs, and vendor lock-in.
We believe AI transformation shouldn't require a Fortune 500 budget or 18-month timelines.
By combining deep AWS expertise with battle-tested architectures, we help funded startups and growth companies ship production-ready AI in weeks, not quarters.

TECH 42 TEAM

Leadership

Our leaders have personally worked on hundreds of AI/ML projects and know what it takes to define business requirements, architect for profitability, and deploy a final product that delivers real business impact and ROI.

EXPERTISE DELIVERED

What you can expect from Tech 42

We're not here to solve a technical challenge and then disappear. We’re committed to your long-term success. Think of us as your fractional CTO with deep AI/ML expertise, here to accelerate your transformation and stick around as you scale. When you win, we've done our job.

Speed

We practice what we preach: We build AI applications *with* AI. Combined with our battle-tested solution library, you get results in weeks, not quarters. No six-month discovery phases. No endless RFPs.

Flexibility

Need a quick proof-of-concept? A three-month build sprint? Ongoing fractional support? We structure engagements around your timeline and budget, not ours. Our goal is long-term partnership, but we're happy to solve immediate needs too.

Scalability

Scaling isn’t just for infrastructure. Your needs evolve, and so does our support. Whether you're validating a POC or deploying to millions of users, we scale our team to match your stage. No awkward "minimum retainer" requirements.

Cloud Experience

We are an AWS Advanced Tier Partner (this matters more than you think) with direct access to funding programs, technical resources, and AWS support teams. Our partnership with AWS ensures your application has all the support required to come to market and scale with demand.

Value Focus

We don't want another project—we want to unlock measurable ROI for your business. Every recommendation we make is filtered through one question: "Does this make our client more profitable?" That’s why we’re laser-focused on understanding your business, aligning on requirements, and delivering with efficiency.

VP of Product, Design, and Engineering, RealWork Labs
Partnering with Tech 42 has been an excellent experience.
Their team guided us through a seamless migration from our existing OpenAI implementation to an AWS Bedrock–based solution that has transformed the efficiency of our content generation workflow. A task that once took 15 minutes of manual work per job is now automated and runs in under 30 seconds, positioning us to handle larger clients and increasing volumes with ease.

The Tech 42 team was responsive, patient, and collaborative throughout the process. Even beyond the initial timeline, they continued refining the solution to ensure we had everything we needed. Their communication was clear, and they provided thorough documentation and a smooth code handoff so our team could confidently take the work forward.

We’re very pleased with the outcome of this project and look forward to continuing our partnership with Tech 42 in the next phase."
