One production stackUp to three critical workflows repaired or replaced.

Make the repair stay repaired.

Two bounded continuity products convert a one-time intervention into recurring operational confidence. They are technical evidence services, not security, legal, or compliance certification.

Managed continuity

Reliability Guard

From $5,000/month

Three-month minimum for a capped set of workflows: fail-visible monitoring, business-hours incident triage, monthly recovery drill, evidence report, and prioritized maintenance window. No unlimited work or 24/7 SLA.

Agency and MSP partners.

NorthStar can operate as a white-label, no-poach delivery pod behind an agency or managed-service provider. You retain the client relationship and brand; we deliver bounded diagnostics, rescue sprints, release evidence, and handoff packages under NDA. Partner capacity starts at $12,000/month and is scoped by concurrent work, response window, and client-access model.

Free operating check · no email required

Could your team make the right call during an AI incident?

Answer eight concrete questions about ownership, containment, evidence, rollback, provider failure, and communication. The score runs only in your browser and routes you to the smallest bounded next step. It is not a security or compliance assessment.

Commerce Activation · proposal-first

Turn a ready catalog into a tested sales path.

For creators and small software teams stalled between product readiness and launch: bounded catalog setup, checkout, signed webhooks, subscription portal when applicable, release evidence, and operator handoff. Merchant identity, taxes, fulfillment, refunds, and legal terms stay client-owned.

Proof is the operating model.

NorthStar Prime is the demonstration environment: a live media, commerce, AI, publishing, and game platform built and operated as one system. We will never claim a third-party client result we cannot substantiate.

Live full-stack systemStorefronts, memberships, media, games, service APIs, and deployment controls operating under one public brand.
Recovery disciplineExact checkpoint recovery, bounded changes, regression tests, hashes, receipts, and explicit rollback paths.
Human-operable handoffAutomation that fails visibly, documents its state, and leaves the operator in control.

Good fit / wrong fit.

Good fit

You already have a valuable product or internal workflow, the failure is costing time or revenue now, a decision-maker can provide access, and success can be tested.

Wrong fit

You want speculative growth guarantees, mass unsolicited messaging, invented case studies, regulated claims without review, or an unlimited rebuild hidden inside a sprint.

Two-minute intake

Send the failure, the stakes, and the deadline.

We will reply with one of three answers: diagnostic, direct sprint, or a clear no-fit. Include the system, what is broken, what a working result is worth, and who owns the decision.
