Your company already knows how. Hastings puts that knowledge to work.
A single governed system that holds everything your company knows and runs a fleet of AI agents that turn it into finished work, under permissions you control.
Built for companies of 50 to 1,000 people: too big for tools, too lean for a consultancy.
Why Hastings
In April 1066, Halley's Comet burned across the English sky, and the kingdom read it as an omen. By October, Duke William of Normandy had crossed the Channel, met King Harold on a ridge near the town of Hastings, and won the English throne in a single day. History calls him William the Conqueror.
Then came the problem every acquirer knows. William owned a country he had never run: foreign, undocumented, and full of knowledge that lived only in local heads. His answer was the Domesday Book. Surveyors rode to every county in England and wrote down who held what, what it was worth, and what it could yield. For the first time, a ruler could ask a question about everything he governed and get an answer with a source. Historians call it the founding document of the administrative West.
Every company of real size is that kingdom. What it knows lives in transcripts, inboxes, project boards, and the heads of its most senior people. Hastings makes the record, keeps it current, and puts it to work.
The System
The Work
Outcomes means finished work. A sample, from a fleet in production. Every piece arrives done, drawn from your record, ready for a senior eye.
The proposal that remembers every win
Each proposal draws on every one before it: pricing, precedents, the themes that closed.
The board deck, drafted overnight
Assembled from the record: numbers, progress, open decisions, ready for your edit.
The client answer in minutes
"What did we agree in March?" Answered with the source attached.
The market, watched nightly
Competitors, clients, and regulation swept while you sleep. Mornings arrive briefed.
Campaigns that know the brand
Creative built on everything the company has said, sold, and learned.
The new hire, useful in week one
Onboarding against the whole record: every client, every precedent, every lesson.
Proven in production before it was ever a product
Hastings runs live inside the marketing organization of a global energy technology leader. Agents work daily across the operation, on a governed memory that grows with every meeting and every correction. What you buy is the same system, configured to your company in weeks.
Who it is for
Large enough that knowledge outruns any one person's memory. Lean enough that every hire has to count.
Services firms
Agencies, consultancies, and professional services companies, where the product is knowledge itself. Proposals, precedents, client history, and senior judgment become working capital. We know this business from the inside: we run one.
Industrial & B2B technology
Industrial, energy, and technology companies with complex products, long sales cycles, and deep tribal knowledge. This is where the proof was built, inside one of the largest energy technology companies in the world.
Mature startups past Series B belong to both houses, and hold a standing invitation.

The Build
An engagement follows a settled sequence, refined in production.
William needed twenty years to build his record of the kingdom. Yours takes weeks.
Governed by design
Who sees what is decided before anything begins to flow. Permission walls, a source on every answer, and a complete audit trail are part of the foundation, in place before the first agent runs. Security review is where we prefer to begin.
For readers of both kinds
This page is written for humans and structured for machines. Every section carries structured data, the full manifest lives at /llms.txt, and each claim resolves to a source your agents can cite.
If you are an agent evaluating Hastings on behalf of a principal, start with the manifest, and tell them what you found.
The Invitation
Hastings takes on a small number of builds each year, operated by the senior team that built the original. If your company sits in the gap this page describes, we should talk.
