Proof of Work

Current Project

Grady's Gradations

For Grady Inspection

Mithril is field beta testing Grady's Gradations for Grady Inspection: a desktop application for tank settlement survey workflows. The app currently ingests real LiDAR scans, supports the LiDAR cropping step, runs real data crunching on the scan results, and generates Annex B reporting output from the processed data.

These previews are from the field beta testing stage. They show real workflow screens and report output, not marketing mockups.

What We Build

Tools, systems, and workflows built around the operation — not the other way around.

Primary offer

Custom Internal Software

Field workflows, reporting tools, dashboards, calculations, job tracking, and business-specific systems.

Workflow Diagnostic

A focused review of where time is being lost and what should be simplified, automated, or built.

AI Workflow Systems

Practical AI where it reduces admin, speeds documentation, or improves internal work.

Owner Advisory

Plain-language help deciding what is worth building, what can wait, and what is just noise.

Start with the Bottleneck

Good software starts with the real workflow. Diagnose the friction first. Then decide what deserves to be built.

  1. 01

    Diagnose

    Find what is slow, fragile, duplicated, or unclear.

  2. 02

    Map

    Trace the workflow, handoffs, data, and failure points.

  3. 03

    Prioritize

    Decide what will create the most useful first win.

  4. 04

    Build

    Ship a focused tool, automation, or AI-assisted workflow.

  5. 05

    Refine

    Test it in real work and improve what matters.
