Training non-developers into a working engineering team
Trained non-developers to become capable builders and rebuilt an entire software system — previously the work of 50+ developers over several years — with a fraction of the team and cost.
SplitStep sets AI strategy, trains teams on the tools that matter, and delivers real solutions. The result: leaner teams, automated workflows, and capabilities that weren't possible before — proven across the companies below.



David is a developer and a forward-deployed engineer. He doesn't consult from a conference room — he shows up at the drilling rig, sits with your team at their desks, and builds the solution right there with them. He has rebuilt multi-year systems on AI foundations, turned non-technical staff into capable builders, and connected physical devices to the cloud with plain-language analytics on top.
The throughline across every project: replace slow, expensive process with automation and well-trained people — built hands-on, on-site, then measured. SplitStep brings that approach to your team, and hosts a growing AI meetup community in Houston.
Identify where AI creates real leverage, prioritize use cases, and build a roadmap you can execute — not a slide deck.
Curricula built around your business, data, and workflows. Designed to make employees measurably more productive — the goal is 5× output, not AI awareness.
Automations, custom AI tools, integrations, and live dashboards — built and delivered inside your systems, with security and access guardrails.
Hands-on, role-specific sessions that get teams confident with the tools they'll use the next day. Plus the Houston AI Meetup community.

Connected Particle Tracker devices to stream live data to the cloud, built a way to ask questions of that data in plain language plus a dashboard, and integrated the rental, inventory, and bookkeeping systems with AI tools. Set up a secure, centralized hub with guardrails to manage employee access.
Rebuilt and streamlined a system that took three years to develop, giving the platform an AI foundation to add new features at breakneck speed — while fully automating manual data entry.
Adopting AI shouldn't mean handing your data to someone else's cloud. We architect every engagement around your security posture, regulatory obligations, and the option to keep models and data entirely in-house.
Centralized repositories with authentication, role-based authorization, and audit trails — so the right people reach the right systems and everything is accountable. Built and proven in production.
Clear data boundaries, minimization, and retention controls. We design pipelines so sensitive information is never exposed to third-party training and never leaves systems you control.
We map AI workflows to your contractual, regulatory, and industry requirements — and document them — so legal and leadership can sign off with confidence rather than caveats.
When the cloud isn't an option, we run AI on your own servers or in your private environment — tuned to your data and workflows, fully under your control, with no data leaving the building.
SplitStep hosts regular AI meetup events in Houston — founders, builders, and curious professionals sharing what's working, demoing real projects, and learning from each other. Beginners and veterans both have a seat.
