The Problem
Every business knows AI can give them an edge. But building AI products requires specialized knowledge that most teams don't have. Hiring full-time AI engineers is expensive. Generic dev shops learn AI on your dime. You need a partner who already knows how to ship AI.
What We Build
AI-powered solutions tailored to your business needs.
AI Websites
Websites with built-in AI features: smart search, personalized content, chatbots, and automated workflows that convert visitors into customers.
AI Mobile Apps
iOS and Android apps powered by AI. From smart recommendations to voice interfaces, we build apps that learn and adapt to your users.
Competitor Intelligence
AI-powered tools that monitor your competitors, track market changes, and surface actionable insights so you stay ahead.
Internal AI Tools
Custom tools that automate repetitive work: document processing, data analysis, report generation, and workflow automation.
Social Media AI
AI tools for content generation, audience analysis, posting optimization, and engagement tracking across all platforms.
Flexible Pricing
Hourly or fixed-price engagements starting at $50/hr. No long-term contracts. Pay for results, not overhead.
Why Tekta
We don't just use AI. We build with it every day.
Most dev shops are learning AI as they go. We've been building multi-LLM systems in production for years. That means fewer surprises, faster delivery, and solutions that actually work at scale.

About Me
Hi, I'm Daniil Matso, the founder of Tekta.ai.
I've spent years building web and mobile apps for startups and mid-sized companies across California. From first prototype to production launch, I've handled the full lifecycle of shipping software that real customers depend on.
Today, AI assistants like Claude Code and Codex are part of how I work every day. They let me ship products faster, automate the repetitive parts of development, and build AI capabilities into your software from day one. It's the same approach I bring to client projects: use AI where it makes you faster, and production engineering discipline everywhere else.
When you work with Tekta, you work directly with me. No account managers, no handoffs, no surprises.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about working with Tekta.ai on your AI software project.
What is Tekta.ai?
Tekta.ai is an AI software development partner. We build AI-powered websites, mobile apps, competitor intelligence tools, and internal automation for businesses. Based in Lake Forest, CA, we bring years of production AI experience to every project.
Who is Tekta.ai for?
We work with businesses of all sizes:
- Local Businesses — AI-enhanced websites, chatbots, and automated workflows
- Growing Companies — Custom AI integrations, data insights, and process automation
- Enterprise Teams — Multi-LLM architectures, RAG systems, and agentic workflows
If you want to add AI to your business but don't have the in-house expertise, we're your partner.
What makes Tekta different from other dev shops?
Most development agencies are adding "AI" to their services and learning as they go. We've been building multi-LLM production systems for years using Claude, GPT, Gemini, and open source models.
That means we know which models work best for which problems, how to optimize costs, and how to avoid the pitfalls that trip up teams new to AI. You get production-tested expertise, not experimentation on your budget.
What services do you offer?
We build five types of AI-powered solutions:
- AI Websites — Smart search, personalization, chatbots, lead qualification
- AI Mobile Apps — Recommendation engines, voice interfaces, image recognition
- Competitor Intelligence — Automated monitoring, trend detection, sentiment tracking
- Internal AI Tools — Document processing, report generation, workflow automation
- Social Media AI — Content generation, audience analysis, posting optimization
What technologies do you use?
We pick the right tools for each project. Our stack includes:
- LLM APIs — Claude (Anthropic), GPT-4 (OpenAI), Gemini (Google), Together AI
- Open Source Models — Llama, Mistral, Whisper, Stable Diffusion
- Frameworks — Next.js, React Native, Python, LangChain, Node.js
- Infrastructure — Google Cloud, AWS, Vercel, Pinecone, PostgreSQL
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. We regularly integrate AI features into existing websites, apps, and internal tools. We work with your current tech stack and team to add AI capabilities without disrupting what's already working.
How does the process work?
Every project follows four steps:
- Discovery Call — Free 30-minute consultation to understand your needs
- Scope & Quote — Clear proposal with timeline and pricing within 48 hours
- Iterative Development — Weekly demos, regular feedback, adjust as needed
- Launch & Support — Production deployment with documentation and training
How much does it cost?
We offer two pricing models:
- Hourly — $50/hr, flexible scope, no long-term commitment
- Fixed Budget — Custom quote with defined deliverables and milestone-based payments
The best model depends on your project. Well-defined projects work great with fixed pricing. Ongoing development or exploratory work fits better with hourly.
How long does a typical project take?
It depends on scope. A proof of concept can be ready in 1-2 weeks. A full AI-powered website or app typically takes 4-8 weeks. Complex enterprise integrations may take longer.
We always start with a prototype to validate the approach before committing to a full build.
Do you require long-term contracts?
No. We work on a project basis. You can engage us for a single project or ongoing development — it's up to you. No lock-in, no minimums.
I'm not sure if AI is right for my business. Can you help me figure that out?
Absolutely. That's what the discovery call is for. Not every problem needs AI, and we'll tell you honestly if a simpler solution would work better. If AI is the right fit, we'll explain exactly how and why.
Do you work with clients outside Lake Forest, CA?
Yes. While we're based in Lake Forest and available for in-person meetings locally, we work with clients anywhere. Most of our collaboration happens over video calls and shared project tools.
