Case studies, teaching & advisory

Enterprise platforms in production and a public portfolio of AI applications for regulated decisions — each one explicit about what is AI, what is code, what is checked and where a human decides — plus the programs I teach and the board I advise.

Credit Decisioning review page showing the model's reasons and the eight notice-verification checks
Live demo Finance

Credit Decisioning

A calibrated credit model, notices written by code from a reviewed template, an independent eight-check verifier proven by mutation testing, and a human who makes the call. A read-only AI analyst explains cases — and code checks every number it states.

Cohort Risk & Review Lab

A calibrated risk model decides who is flagged, fairness is audited for every subgroup, an AI agent assembles the evidence, and a clinician makes every enrolment decision. It also reproduces how training on cost instead of illness burden skews who gets care.

Trade Surveillance Agent sample case: a synthetic Chief Financial Officer sale two days before earnings, with a research-prototype notice
Live demo Finance

Trade Surveillance Agent

An AI investigator for SEC Form 4 insider filings. It gathers evidence, drafts a finding, checks every claim against what it actually retrieved, and hands a clear, flag or escalate outcome to a human — while openly reporting where its accuracy still falls short.

Live demo Healthcare

Clinical Care Navigator

An assistant that explains a patient's own record, with independent safety checks before and after the AI. Dosing questions are refused, emergencies get urgent guidance, and answers that conflict with the record — such as a critical lab value — are overridden and sent to a clinician.

RxFlow Pharmacy Assistant chat interface with the current patient, insurance and medication summary in the sidebar

RxFlow Pharmacy Assistant

A conversational prescription-refill assistant built on a 10-state workflow and a LangChain agent with 16+ tools. Controlled substances, expired prescriptions and unknown medications are routed to a doctor or pharmacist instead of being handled by the AI.

  • Evaluation & guardrails
Claim Processing Agent claim-submission form with a sample auto-insurance claim and the active pipeline status
Live demo Insurance

Claim Processing Agent

An agentic RAG system that validates an auto-insurance claim against policy records, retrieves the relevant policy language, checks the claimed repair cost against market estimates, and returns a structured, explainable coverage decision — through two interchangeable agent frameworks.

DualLens Analytics financial dashboard comparing stock-price trends for GOOGL, MSFT, IBM, NVDA and AMZN
Live demo Finance

DualLens Analytics

An investment-research prototype that pairs Yahoo Finance metrics with AI-strategy insights retrieved from company reports through RAG. Every answer is scored for groundedness and relevance by an LLM judge, and companies can be compared and ranked on both lenses.

  • RAG & retrieval
  • Evaluation & guardrails

GenAI Docs Helper

A LangGraph RAG workflow that grades retrieved documents, rephrases the question when nothing relevant comes back, and checks each answer for hallucination before returning it — with caching and parallel retrieval to keep it fast.

Open source Careers

GenAI Job Finder

An AI-assisted job-search tool that turns a résumé into targeted search queries, collects and enriches job postings, cleans and classifies them with LLM chains, and offers a career-focused chat assistant — with each model task routed to the provider that suits it.

Telematics Risk Assessment

A dual-model machine-learning system that turns raw trip telematics — GPS, accelerometer, speed — into 50+ driving-behavior features, then predicts both the probability and the likely severity of an insurance claim, with interpretable risk factors and risk tiers.

In the lab

Built, tested — not deployed yet

Agents and tooling that extend the same patterns to legal, telecom, logistics and IT operations. Each has its own evaluation harness and CI; public demos are coming.

  • Shared library In the lab

    zarreh-agentkit

    The shared library behind the portfolio's agent services: guardrails (injection screen, grounding, budgets, least-privilege projection), observability, per-node cost tracking, rate limiting and an eval CLI. Every abstraction had two real consumers before it became one.

  • Legal In the lab

    LexAgent

    Grounded rental-law reasoning over Texas and California statutes plus a synthetic precedent corpus. It cites, verifies every citation, and refuses questions outside its scope.

  • Telecom In the lab

    Secure Service Agent

    Telecom customer support that assumes the user might be hostile: input and output guardrails, an identity gate, redacted memory and specialist agents under a supervisor that checks grounding and scope.

  • Retail & supply chain In the lab

    Shipment Disruption Router

    Routes logistics exceptions — re-route, expedite, claim, cancel — with every recommendation traceable to a versioned rulebook, and a human review queue for high-stakes or low-confidence decisions.

    Incident Investigation Copilot

    An on-call assistant that retrieves logs, runs sandboxed diagnostics and drafts incident reports, with an evidence-and-honesty guardrail on every conclusion.

    forge

    A supervised coding-agent orchestrator: a thin supervisor decomposes a task, delegates to a coder model, and gates each change through checks and review before it is pushed.
