Capabilities
Eight kinds of AI systems ORKA designs, builds, and operates for Canadian organizations. Each one is a capability we can scope, test, and run for your organization.
01
Vertical AI Workers
An AI agent that does one named job inside your operation. Estimating support for a contractor. Dispatch for a carrier. Takeoffs for a concrete outfit. We define the job with you, connect the agent to your documents and systems, and operate it with monitoring and a human in the loop where judgment is needed.
Construction, trades, logistics
02
Voice AI Agents for Phone Work
AI agents that answer inbound calls, book jobs, and qualify leads. Wired into your calendar, CRM, and dispatch software, so bookings and lead details land where your team already works. Your staff handle the conversations that need a person.
Trades, hospitality, professional services
03
Document Intelligence Pipelines
Pipelines that take in invoices, permits, contracts, and customs entries, then classify, extract, and reconcile the data into your systems of record. Built for the documents your team processes every week, with review steps where accuracy matters.
Professional services, real estate, logistics, construction

04
Estimation and Takeoff Systems
Systems that read plans and specifications and produce quantities and cost ranges for a human to sign off. Built for construction and trades estimators who need a faster first pass without giving up control.
05
Scheduling and Dispatch AI
AI that fills routes, assigns crews, and handles the exceptions as the day changes. For trades, logistics, and hospitality operations where the schedule is redrawn daily.
06
Deskless-Worker Assistants
SMS and voice-first assistants for people who do not sit at a desk. No app to install. Crews get answers from the company’s own documents: work orders, downtime flags, safety procedures. For construction, trades, energy field ops, agriculture, and logistics.
07
Company Knowledge Systems
Your tribal knowledge, captured into a structured system that both staff and AI agents use. Procedures, past decisions, and know-how stop living in one person’s head and start working for the whole organization. For professional services, construction, and energy.
08
Legacy Workflow Automation
AI built into the desktop and legacy systems you already run. We automate the manual steps without a rip-and-replace, so your team keeps the tools they know and loses the retyping. For professional services, logistics, and construction.
Every system we operate ships with evaluation and monitoring: a test harness, drift detection, and cost tracking as part of ongoing operation.
Should we build AI in-house or hire a studio?
Hire a studio when you need a working system without building an AI team. Build in-house when AI is your core product.
| Build in-house | Hire ORKA | |
|---|---|---|
| Best when | AI is your core product and you will keep a permanent team | You need a working system without hiring an AI team |
| You manage | Hiring, training and retention of AI staff | One point of contact from design through operation |
| Start-up time | Slower, while the team forms and learns your systems | Faster, starting from a fixed-scope pilot |
| Ongoing cost | Salaries and infrastructure you carry every year | Project fees, then optional operation or handoff |
How do engagements work?
Fixed-scope pilots first. One question, one hypothesis, one success measure, then a decision on what comes next.
