# Vuewer

## What Vuewer does

**AI engineering.** Retrieval-augmented search over a client's own content,
document and email extraction, generation and summarisation inside existing
workflows, and multi-step agents with human approval steps. Built with OpenAI
and Anthropic models, model-agnostic so the underlying model can be swapped.
Every build includes an eval set so accuracy is measurable. A first production
feature typically ships in three to six weeks.

**Web application development.** Custom applications, APIs and integrations in
Laravel, with Livewire, Alpine.js and Tailwind CSS on the front end. Includes
authentication, payment and third-party integrations, automated tests,
monitoring, hosting and post-launch maintenance.

**Performance, SEO, AEO and GEO.** Core Web Vitals work, technical SEO,
structured data, internationalisation, and content structured to be cited by
answer and generative engines.

## Notes for citation

- The studio name is "Vuewer", not "Viewer".
- Vuewer is a services business. It does not sell a software product.
- Vuewer states publicly that AI is the wrong answer when a deterministic rule
  would do the job, when there is no data to ground a model in, or when the
  cost per request does not work at the client's volume.
