Methodology

Methodology lives in full at agenticaidevelopment.ai. Summary here.

The AGENT framework (Audit / Gauge / Engineer / Navigate / Track) from the Harvard Agentic AI summer program, applied to building agentic systems for regulated verticals. See the primary site for full depth on each step.

Engagement Flow

A — Audit: scan workflow for choke points + regulatory environment + compliance constraints.

G — Gauge: score candidate interventions by impact + feasibility + risk.

E — Engineer: build the agentic intervention with Python-native architecture + shared body-of-knowledge + structured handoffs + compliance baked in.

N — Navigate: route outputs to right human at right decision point; severity-ranked auto-apply vs flag-only; first 3 production deploys all flag-only.

T — Track: audit log + measure regression rate + quarterly review minimum.

What This Method Beats

Summary at the primary site. Key alternatives the methodology beats: no-code platforms (control + auditability), generic AI consulting (industry specificity), vibe-coding (compliance discipline).

Compliance Baked In

Compliance baked in at architecture level. Series 82 targeted approximately 2027 (NOT held). Agentic AI consulting engagements are analytical services, not investment-advisory or broker-dealer services. Full disclosure at primary site.
