Track 1
Scaling an Existing System
For founders and CTOs with working software that is hitting bottlenecks.
Your system works. Customers use it, revenue depends on it, and that is exactly why every change feels risky. Queries that were instant at ten thousand rows now time out, the model bill grows faster than usage, the agent pipeline that handled a hundred cases a day stalls at a thousand, and nobody is sure which fix to make first.
The scaling track treats your production system as evidence. We read the code, profile the database against real query logs, trace a sample of agent runs end to end, and price every model call. The output is a ranked list of bottlenecks with the measured cost of each one and the engineering effort to remove it, so the next quarter of work is chosen by numbers instead of by whoever argues loudest.
What the track covers
Code audit
Structure, boundaries, error handling, and test coverage reviewed against how the system actually fails in production, with concrete refactoring targets.
Database slow-query profiling
Query logs, execution plans, index coverage, and lock contention analyzed to find the handful of queries responsible for most of the latency.
Token cost optimization
Every model call classified by purpose, measured for cost and accuracy, then mapped to a cheaper model, a cache, or a rule where quality allows.
Multi-agent latency refactoring
Agent traces analyzed for serial steps that could run in parallel, redundant tool calls, and oversized context windows that slow every turn.
Security review
Prompt-injection surfaces, secrets handling, access control on tool actions, and data flows to external providers reviewed against your compliance obligations.
Typical symptoms
- p95 latency climbing month over month with no code change
- Model spend growing faster than transaction volume
- Agent runs that succeed in testing and stall under real load
- A database nobody wants to touch because the last migration hurt
- Security questions from an enterprise prospect that nobody can answer quickly
