# Precipitate

> Precipitate is an applied-AI studio. We build agentic automations that run marketing, operations, and back-office work for businesses, then leave them running in production.

Contact: inquiries@precipitate.ai

## What is agentic automation?
Agentic automation is software that pursues a goal instead of following a fixed script. A traditional automation runs the same steps every time and breaks the moment reality changes. An agentic system reads the situation, decides what to do, acts through real tools, checks the result, and retries or escalates when something goes wrong. In practice that means it can run unattended for months rather than needing a person to babysit it.

## What Precipitate builds
- Marketing engines: AI systems that research, write, translate, and publish content, and run cold outreach with follow-up sequences, on their own.
- Operations systems: scheduled reporting, monitoring, lead handling, and customer messaging, with locking, timeouts, and alerting.
- Production applications: full web apps when the job needs a real product rather than an automation, including payments, auth, databases, and multi-language support.
- AI agents with guardrails underneath all of it, so the work can be trusted to run without supervision.

Scale of the operation: 110+ scheduled jobs running 24/7, 88 distinct systems in production, 40+ live integrations, content in 7 languages.

## How Precipitate differs from an agency
An agency hands over a deliverable and leaves. Precipitate hands over a system that is already running, and keeps it running. What the client owns at the end is software that does the work every day with nobody in the loop, not a campaign or a document.

## Systems we operate (live in production)
- Autonomous trading desk: a live book of AI-driven strategies executing on Hyperliquid across single-name equities, ETFs, commodities, and crypto perpetuals. Non-custodial. It is the hardest test of whether autonomous software can be trusted: real money, no supervision. https://automate.precipitate.ai
- Market intelligence terminal (Oracle): an AI research desk grounded in daily Hyperliquid whale-positioning briefs, tracking a smart-money cohort of thousands of wallets. The positioning board is public; the chat is gated to RAIN holders. https://app.precipitate.ai/oracle
- Business automation fleet: the agentic automations built and operated for other companies (content engines, cold outreach, reporting, customer messaging).
- Compute and models: NVIDIA A16 / A40 / A100 GPU servers and open-weight LLM endpoints for private inference. https://app.precipitate.ai

## Do you only work with trading or onchain companies?
No. Most of what Precipitate runs is ordinary business operations for companies with no connection to markets at all. The trading desk is Precipitate's own system.

## Answers: what AI can automate in a specific kind of business
Plain, honest answers written for owners of ordinary, operations-heavy businesses. Each page states what an agentic system can genuinely own end to end, and what should NOT be automated and still needs a person. Cost pages explain what drives the price rather than quoting a figure, because engagements are quoted on the value the system creates. Index: https://precipitate.ai/answers

## History
Precipitate started in 2023 as an onchain protocol for autonomous trading. That chapter still runs and is documented in full at https://precipitate.ai/protocol, but the studio's work today is business automation for ordinary companies — this is background, not what Precipitate is.
