Visit project →Why this matters for clients. When we build for you we’re not stitching together SaaS subscriptions and hoping the prices don’t change. We know what each of these tools costs, what they break under, and how they fail — because we run them ourselves. Same stack, your hardware, your auth.
What we do for clients
We don’t do AI demos. We ship AI features that show up in your P&L. Three things, done well.
AI product builds
Full-stack delivery. We take an idea — yours or ours — and ship a paying product. Backend, frontend, mobile, billing, observability, and the LLM glue that makes it real.
Automation retrofits
Already have a SaaS or internal tool? We bolt in AI where it earns its keep — email triage, support deflection, content generation, structured extraction — without rewriting the world.
AI infrastructure
LLM gateways, prompt versioning, evals, queue workers, billing plumbing, observability. The unsexy layer that decides whether your AI feature stays up at 3am.
Frequently asked questions
Short answers to what people ask before booking a call.
What is Dainty Trading?
Dainty Trading is an AI automation studio. We design, build, and operate production AI software — 35 products covering email, content, education, knowledge management, marketing automation, scheduling, billing, and SaaS infrastructure. Some are shipped and live; others are in final testing or active development. Each project page is honest about which.
What kind of AI projects do you take on?
LLM-powered features (Claude, Gemini, OpenRouter), agentic workflows, content automation pipelines, AI-driven personalisation, and structured-extraction systems. We also do the boring infrastructure that keeps them up — gateways, queues, evals, billing.
What stack do you build on?
Python (FastAPI, Django) and Node.js (Fastify, Express) on the backend; Next.js, React, and React Native on the front; PostgreSQL and Redis for state; n8n for orchestration; Stripe for billing; LiteLLM for routing across model providers; Docker everywhere.
Do you only build with Claude?
No. We default to Anthropic Claude because it punches above its weight on long-context and structured tasks, but we route through OpenRouter and LiteLLM so projects can pick Gemini, OpenAI, or open-weights when the economics or latency demand it.
How fast can you ship?
First demo in 1–2 weeks for most builds. A first paying customer in 4–8 weeks. We move fast because we’ve already built the boring parts (billing, auth, LLM routing, observability) and reuse them across every project.
Where are you based?
Australia. We work async with clients globally and are happy to operate in your timezone.
How do I start?
Email us via the contact page with two paragraphs: what you want built and why it matters. We’ll reply within one business day with a scoped first sprint.
