What does Axio Intelligence do?
Axio Intelligence is a US engineering firm in San Antonio, Texas. We build go-to-market platforms for new product lines, data and AI platforms, and cloud infrastructure as code on AWS, Google Cloud and Azure; we build connected hardware end to end — firmware, cellular and satellite connectivity, device-to-cloud and edge AI; and we cut cloud costs, modernize legacy systems — including moving COBOL and RPG workloads off IBM mainframes and IBM i, and Oracle and SQL Server databases to PostgreSQL or MySQL — run DevOps/SRE and provide fractional CTO leadership.
Can Axio build the platform for a new product line or division?
Yes — it is one of the most common reasons established companies hire us. We build the product site, customer and dealer portals, commerce and billing, CRM and ERP integrations, and the cloud infrastructure for a new line, so it can launch without pulling the core engineering team off the roadmap.
Which clouds do you work with?
AWS, Google Cloud (GCP) and Microsoft Azure. We build and support infrastructure as code with Terraform, OpenTofu, Pulumi, AWS CDK or Bicep, including landing zones, Kubernetes (EKS, GKE, AKS), CI/CD and ongoing IaC support.
Do you work with IBM mainframes or IBM i (AS/400)?
Yes. For US manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers and mid-size retailers still running on IBM Z (z/OS and COBOL) or IBM i (AS/400 and RPG), we move COBOL and RPG workloads to AWS, Azure or Google Cloud in a modern language, starting with the batch and extract jobs that cost the most — inventory, replenishment, pricing feeds, reports. It starts with a diagnostic of the bill and the job list, and there is no upfront fee: we are paid a percentage of the net savings in licensing and compute spend.
Who hires Axio Intelligence?
Mostly established companies launching something new — a product line, a division, an AI or data capability, or a connected product — plus IoT connectivity providers who need an implementation partner, energy and DER device makers, defense and dual-use hardware teams, and industrial operators. We also built the AI data platform behind MLtwist.
Can you build firmware and cloud software for our IoT device?
Yes. We build the embedded firmware, the connectivity path, the device-to-cloud pipeline, command-and-control APIs, secure OTA updates and the fleet console, and we can design and manufacture the hardware too. One team is accountable from the board to the dashboard.
How do engagements work and how are they priced?
Most work starts with a short scoping sprint, followed by a fixed-scope, fixed-fee build with a written plan and dates. After launch, systems can move to a monthly support retainer. Fractional CTO work is a monthly retainer for a set number of days. Mainframe and IBM i migration is the exception: no upfront fee, priced as a percentage of the net savings we deliver. Database migrations can be either a fixed fee or a share of the license savings, depending on the job.
Do you work with our existing connectivity provider?
Yes. We build on the provider you already use, which is why connectivity providers refer their customers to us as an implementation partner.
Where is Axio Intelligence located?
Axio Intelligence is headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, and works with clients across the United States. Our engineering team is US-based.
