About · Built by an operator

Built by someone who lives the work.

FCT Dev is an AI implementation firm based in Santo Domingo. We build AI-powered systems and automations for teams that need working systems, not presentations that go nowhere.

01 Founder

Fernando Calle

Fernando has spent 9 years in data, analytics, and AI. At US companies like Thryv and Oyster, he built and shipped the AI systems and automations that run real operations day to day, not demos, not slide decks.

FCT Dev brings that same work to businesses in LATAM and the US that can't justify a full data team. The point was never to talk about AI. It is to put it to work inside the tools you already use, and have it still running a month later.

What makes us different

Pilots do not matter if nobody uses them after launch.

Delivery

We deliver it working.

Every project starts from a real part of the work and runs inside the tools your team already uses.

Control

The team stays in control.

Human review, monitoring, credentials, and runbooks are part of the work from the beginning.

Context

LATAM is the starting point.

Spanish, WhatsApp, imperfect CRMs, and real operational constraints are part of the design from day one.

03 Operating principles

The advantage is in the operational details.

We start with the real problem. Slow responses, stale CRM data, support queues, and manual reporting create the business case. AI is the mechanism, not the pitch.

We build on how the team already works. If your people have to learn another app before seeing value, the design is probably wrong.

We measure after launch. A system is not successful because it looks good in an initial test. It is successful when it keeps saving time after the first week.

Next step

Put AI inside the job.

Book a call. We review one real point in your operation, define how to prove value, and tell you whether FCT Dev makes sense for your team.
