// Independent AI engineering practice

Voice agents, AI systems,
and the production-grade work between them.

Hollice is a hands-on consultancy for companies who want AI that actually ships — voice agents that handle real calls, agentic systems that do real work, and integrations that hold up under real load.

What I build — and what I'll tell you not to build.

[ 01 ] VOICE_AI

Custom voice agents

Real-time conversational systems built on modern streaming stacks — Pipecat, LiveKit, WebRTC. Voice agents that handle interruptions, sound like a person, and don't fall apart in production. Telephony, browser, or embedded.

[ 02 ] AGENTS

Agentic systems

Agents that do real work — research, triage, drafting, automation across your tools. Designed around what your team actually does, not a framework's idea of what an agent should be.

[ 03 ] INTEGRATION

Web & mobile, AI inside

Embedding AI into existing products — structured outputs, eval harnesses, latency budgets, fallbacks. The unglamorous parts that decide whether the feature feels good or feels broken.

[ 04 ] ADVISORY

Strategy for leadership

For founders and execs figuring out where AI moves the needle, what to build versus buy, and how to staff for it. An honest read on what's worth doing now and what's still hype — from someone who ships the stuff weekly.

A senior engineer in the room — not a slide deck.

Code gets written.
Decisions get made with the actual product in front of us.

I've been a founding engineer and co-founder across multiple companies — the kind of work where you own the system end-to-end and there's nobody else to escalate to. Hollice brings that posture to client work.

Engagements are small, focused, outcome-shaped. A four-week build to get a voice agent into production. An advisory retainer where I'm the person leadership calls when an AI decision needs a real answer. Sometimes both.

No account managers. No junior handoffs. No offshore subcontracting. If we work together, you're working with me.
