ncodelab.

About

Small studio. Real engineers. Boring opinions about LLMs.

ncodelab is a one-person AI automation studio (for now), based in Warsaw, working with teams across Europe and the US.

Why this exists

Most AI agency work in 2026 is theatre: demos that wow leadership and break in production, RAG pipelines that hallucinate citations, agents that score great on Twitter and fail on Tuesday. We started ncodelab to do the unglamorous half of the work — evaluation, observability, integration, iteration — because that's the half that determines whether the system actually ships.

What we believe

The eval is the product.

If you can't measure 'better', you can't get there. Everything we build starts with an eval set, ends with an eval score, and is improved against the eval over time.

Boring beats clever.

We use models, prompts, and tools you've heard of. Novelty is a liability when something needs to run unattended at 3 AM.

Ship the smallest thing.

One workflow, one agent, one metric. Then the next. Big-bang projects are how AI work goes to die.

Who

Right now: Tomasz Chmielarz — engineer, ten years in product, former tech lead. Bringing in collaborators per project rather than building a generic agency bench.
