About

Operators first. Technologists second.

Preston AI was started by people who have run plants, sold and delivered enterprise systems, and applied data and AI to real processes. We built the firm we wished we could have hired.

What the team brings

Three kinds of experience, one team.

Plant operations

Decades running manufacturing operations, including metal fabrication and aerospace parts, and consulting to manufacturers since.

Enterprise systems

Two decades helping large manufacturers and agribusinesses plan, buy and roll out the systems they run on.

Data and AI

Hands-on experience applying data platforms and AI to business processes, from first use case to production.

How we operate

What you can hold us to.

  • Experienced builders do the work. No junior bench, no handoffs.
  • Every engagement starts with one use case and a success measure we agree on up front.
  • You own everything we build: workflows, configurations, documentation and know-how.
  • We'll tell you when AI isn't the answer.

Why "Preston"? It's a street, not a metaphor. Read the story.

Let's fix what's slowing you down.

Tell us where work gets stuck in your operation. We'll tell you honestly whether AI can help, and what it would take.
