Solo-built AI scoring platform

Started December 2025 as a nights-and-weekends question: can one operator build the predictive scoring system GTM teams usually buy? Two hundred-plus production deploys later, it is a working platform in enterprise beta with sales-provisioned trials. Per-customer models trained on their own closed-won history, every score explained, pushed back into the CRM where reps work. Python, FastAPI, and Claude Code. No other engineers. Live at ax1om.ai →
