Claude Code Practice

Most organizations don't know how to adopt Claude Code yet. Their engineers are experimenting but have not reached production-grade operation. Leadership wants the productivity gains but doesn't know what governance to put around it. Regulated industries need to keep everything private. Government contractors need cloud-segregated deployments. SMBs want someone else to just run it. We cover the whole gamut — consulting to figure out the right path, then training, deployment, or managed operation to execute it.

The five service lines

Pick one or combine several. Most engagements use two or three.

1. AI Readiness Assessment — FREE

A 30-minute no-pitch working session. We map your current stack, surface the specific Claude Code interventions that make sense for your team, and tell you honestly which of the services below (if any) fits your situation. Output: a one-page written summary you can share internally.

2. Training & Enablement — $15K to $75K + $3K-$5K/mo coaching

For engineering teams that want to run Claude Code themselves and need help getting to production-grade operation. 2-day workshop, 3-to-8-week multi-week enablement engagements, and ongoing coaching retainers. We train from production experience — every skill, hook, and MCP pattern has been deployed by our own team first.

Best for: tech companies, robotics firms, SaaS orgs, any engineering team of 10+ where uncoordinated self-study has started producing technical debt.

3. Private Claude Code Deployment — $40K to $100K

Run Claude Code or OpenCode against a private local model behind your firewall. 100% private prompts and processing. Zero data egress. Ollama or vLLM backend serving open-weight models (Qwen Coder, DeepSeek, Llama, Mistral). For organizations that cannot send code to third-party clouds regardless of contractual assurances.

Best for: healthcare (HIPAA), legal (privilege), financial services, defense-adjacent, IP-sensitive research codebases, robotics companies with proprietary control systems.

4. Enterprise Claude Code Setup — $25K to $75K + $7.5K/mo optional management

Deploy Claude Code on an Anthropic Enterprise account with cloud-segregated tenancy, SSO integration, audit logging, and compliance-ready posture (SOC 2, HIPAA-aware, FedRAMP-adjacent). Use when you want Anthropic's Claude models and your compliance posture permits cloud processing under enterprise controls.

Best for: government contractors, defense-adjacent, large enterprise (100+ engineers) needing central governance, compliance-driven financial services, HIPAA-covered healthcare with BAA-backed cloud acceptable.

5. Claude Code Agency — Managed Retainer

For organizations that want us to run Claude Code on their behalf rather than learn it themselves. We install Claude Code inside your stack during a 1-week kickoff ($7.5K-$12.5K), then operate it on an ongoing monthly retainer that ships automations, agents, and internal tools on request.

Retainer tiers: Operator $4,500/mo, Partner $9,500/mo, Embedded $22,000/mo. Best for: SMBs (25-200 FTE) in ops-heavy or regulated industries who want production AI work without hiring AI engineers or learning Claude Code themselves.

How to pick the right service for your organization

We answer this exact question during the free assessment, but here's the short decision tree:

Common service combinations

Why this practice works

We've been shipping production software since the 1980s. Fortune 500 work from 2002 to 2010 through Source Nine (Kellogg's, Hertz, Stryker, ConAgra, Keebler, Eaton). 60+ open-source AI repositories. 2026 ARC-AGI-3 competitor. Founder is CTO at KineticArc.ai (industrial AI reasoning). We use Claude Code as our own production development engine every day — every skill, hook, MCP integration, and operational pattern we teach or deploy has been dogfooded internally first.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 2 Acre Studios Claude Code Practice?

A full advisory practice covering five service lines: Free AI Readiness Assessment, Training & Enablement, Private Deployment, Enterprise Setup, and Claude Code Agency managed retainer. We help any organization figure out the right adoption path for their scale, compliance posture, and engineering team — then help them execute it.

Which service fits my organization?

Deciding and want an outside read? Free AI Readiness Assessment. Engineers want to run it themselves? Training & Enablement. No data leaves your network? Private Deployment. SOC 2 / FedRAMP-adjacent / large enterprise? Enterprise Setup. Want us to run it for you? Claude Code Agency. Most orgs use two or three together.

Can services be combined?

Yes. Most engagements do. Enterprise + Training bundles save $15K off list. Private + Training bundles at reduced rate. Training followed by Retainer is a common hybrid path. We build combined quotes during the assessment based on what actually fits you.

Who is this practice for?

Tech companies, robotics firms, SaaS orgs, regulated-industry SMBs (healthcare, finance, legal), government contractors, defense-adjacent, and large enterprise engineering teams. Designed around the reality that most organizations are 12 months behind on Claude Code adoption and need a clear path forward.

What's the fastest way to start?

Free 30-minute AI Readiness Assessment. We map your stack, surface the specific interventions that make sense for you, and tell you which service line (or combination) fits. No pitch deck. Working session output: one-page written summary.
