A small team building
outsized things.
Lasterday Labs is a focused AI consultancy and product studio. We exist to help ambitious companies build and ship AI that actually works.
Born from the belief that AI should ship, not sit in notebooks.
We started Lasterday Labs because we kept seeing the same pattern: companies excited about AI, investing in data science teams, and ending up with impressive notebooks that never made it to production.
The gap wasn't intelligence — it was execution. Taking a model from research to a product that real users depend on requires a different mindset: systems thinking, product sensibility, and engineering rigor.
That's what we do. We bridge the gap between "this model looks promising" and "this product is changing our business."
Founded. First clients: Pupperazi Pet Spa, Fahey's Home Cleaning.
Shipped OutcomeView, Match Play Candles, and Krezzo.
Launched Context Memo. Expanding AI product practice.
How we operate.
These aren't posters on a wall. They're how we make decisions every day.
Outcome-obsessed
We measure success by what ships and what moves, not by hours logged or decks delivered.
First-principles thinking
We question assumptions and build from the ground up. The best solutions rarely come from following the crowd.
Speed as a feature
Fast iteration isn't reckless — it's how you learn. We compress timelines without cutting corners.
Radical candor
We'll tell you if an idea won't work. We'd rather lose a deal than waste your time building the wrong thing.
Senior people, no filler.
Every person on our team has shipped AI in production. No juniors learning on your dime.
