About us

When we founded Prolego in 2017, we were driven by a bold vision: to reshape the future of business by making AI its default operating system.

The rise of large language models (LLMs) in 2022 sparked a new wave of innovation, and we saw firsthand how traditional development methodologies like Scrum and Agile fell short in this rapidly evolving landscape. In response, we designed our own approach, Performance-Driven Development (PDD), to break through those limitations.

With PDD, we’ve reimagined how AI integrates into everything we do, creating a consultancy that’s uniquely equipped for the era of generative AI. For our clients, this means we not only deliver LLM-based solutions with unmatched speed and cost-effectiveness, but we also offer a level of predictability and transparency that redefines industry standards.
