Consulting
scoped and priced before anything starts
Far Horizons works directly with your engineers — no delivery pyramid, no account manager. Every engagement is Luke Chadwick, personally. Five shapes of work:
01
Architecture audit
two weeks · fixed price
Far Horizons reads the codebase, talks to your engineers, and writes down what your AI system will actually do under load — and what to fix, in order. Also the cheapest way to find out whether the practice is a fit at all.
02
Fractional CTO
one–two days a week · rolling
The technical calls a founder shouldn't make alone, made with someone who still writes code in the repo. Architecture, hiring, shipping cadence — grounded in your actual system, not a framework about it.
03
Rescue
scoped per situation · starts within a week
The stalled AI project, the vendor that walked, the prototype that won't survive contact with production. Luke has done this before — in 2019 he rebuilt an automotive AR capture pipeline from scratch in four months, under the original deadline.
04
Team enablement
two–five days · on your repo
A working session, not a talk. Multi-agent workflows, review discipline, and where the failure modes actually are — your engineers leave measurably faster with coding agents than they arrived.
05
Advisory retainer
a few hours a month
A standing call and an open channel. A second opinion before you commit to the build-or-buy, and someone to ring when it breaks on a Friday afternoon.
The record, in brief
Scout24 · AutoScout24 · REA Group · LuxuryEscapes · Partmax · Zolidar. Shipping since 2001, independent since 2019. The long versions live in the case studies.
If one of these fits
Write to hello@farhorizons.io and describe the system and the deadline. Luke answers within a business day. If Far Horizons is not the right practice for it, he'll say so.
