We design and ship custom AI tools, internal platforms, and data products for operating teams at USA companies. Makers of DataDock, our flagship natural-language layer for data warehouses.
Off-the-shelf SaaS doesn't solve it — your workflow is too specific, your data lives in the wrong places, and the tool that fits 80% of the market fits you at 40%.
Hiring doesn't solve it either. Senior AI engineers take six months to find, a year to ramp, and won't ship your internal tool before they're poached.
That's the gap HK DataCrest was built to close. We're a small, senior product studio that designs, engineers, and ships the AI and data software your team actually needs — end-to-end, under one roof, under one contract.
Ask your data anything in plain English. Get answers, charts, and dashboards back — instantly.
DataDock is our in-house product — the clearest proof of what HK DataCrest can ship. Connect your warehouse, point DataDock at the tables that matter, and your team can ask questions the way they think: "Which 10 customers are about to churn?", "What's our margin by region this quarter?", "Show me the outliers in last week's orders."
If DataDock is what you need, book a demo. If you need something custom built on the same foundation — a private assistant over your own data, a bespoke AI tool for your team — that's what the rest of this studio does.
Chat with your data, get answers with charts.
Auto-generated, interactive, shareable.
Other warehouses available on request.
Read-only by design, full audit log, SOC 2 path.
We don't do websites, we don't do mobile apps, we don't do "digital transformation." We ship custom AI and data software to production. That's it.
Private AI assistants, RAG systems, and GenAI products built on your data, your workflows, your brand.
Stack: Python · OpenAI / Anthropic · LangChain · Postgres + pgvector · Next.js
The admin panels, ops dashboards, and internal apps your team needs yesterday — built properly, not in a no-code tool that breaks in a year.
Stack: Next.js / React · Node / Python · Postgres · Tailwind · Vercel / AWS
Customer-facing data products, embedded analytics, and DataDock-style experiences over your own data.
Stack: Python · FastAPI · React · Postgres / Snowflake · LLM APIs
We don't take on: marketing sites, mobile app clones, blockchain/crypto, or anything where the best answer is an off-the-shelf SaaS tool. When that's what you need, we'll tell you.
Free, 20 min. You describe the problem. We tell you if it's a fit, and what it looks like to build.
Within 3 days. Scope, deliverables, timeline, and fixed price. No surprises.
Demos every Friday. Slack access to the team. You see it ship as it's built.
Deployed on your infra, with docs and a handover. Optional retainer if you want us to keep iterating.
One well-defined project, fixed price, fixed timeline. Typical 2–8 weeks. Best when you know what you want built.
From $15,000
A senior slice of our team dedicated to you, month-to-month. Ships multiple things, iterates with you, kills what isn't working. Best when your AI roadmap is long and your in-house team is short-handed.
From $12,000 / month
We're a young studio, and we're honest about it. Our early client work is covered by NDAs we intend to keep. DataDock is the public proof of what we can ship — everything else, we'll walk you through on a call.
The case studies on this site will be real, named, and linked — not invented. We'd rather have a quiet section than a loud lie.
We default to a small, proven stack: Python and FastAPI on the backend, Next.js and React on the frontend, Postgres for most data, OpenAI and Anthropic APIs for LLMs, LangChain and pgvector where they earn their keep, deployed on AWS or Vercel. We pick boring tools on purpose. New frameworks are a tax your business pays later.
We're a small, senior product studio with a core engineering team working full-time. Small on purpose — it's how we keep quality up and communication direct.
Our engineering team is in India and we work USA business hours for our USA clients. All code, product decisions, and delivery happen under one roof at HK DataCrest.
Fixed-scope builds start at $15,000 and are quoted end-to-end — scope, timeline, and price locked before we start. Retained Studio engagements start at $12,000/month for a senior slice of our team. We send a written proposal within 3 days of a scoping call.
DataDock is our public proof. Early client projects are under NDA — we'll walk you through them privately on a call if you're evaluating us seriously.
Marketing websites, mobile app clones, no-code glue work, and anything a good off-the-shelf SaaS tool would solve better. When that's the right answer, we'll say so.
Book a demo. DataDock connects to Snowflake today, with other warehouses available on request. We'll show you your questions answered against a sample dataset on the call.
Yes. Standard NDAs signed same day. We work with the paperwork your legal team prefers.
A named engineering lead from the first call through delivery. No handoffs to a "delivery team" you've never met.
20-minute scoping call. No slides, no sales pitch. Bring the problem — we'll tell you whether we're the right team for it, and what it takes to ship.
