AI Acceleration Consulting
Your engineering team should be shipping 3x faster.
I work directly with engineering teams to set up AI-native development workflows that produce real, measurable velocity gains. Not training sessions. Not slide decks. Hands-on implementation from a practicing CTO.
The Problem
Most teams are leaving 70% of AI's value on the table.
Ad-hoc Copilot usage
Individual devs use AI when they remember to. There's no system, no shared patterns, and no way to measure if it's actually helping.
No code review integration
AI-generated code ships without proper review guardrails. Quality suffers. Tech debt accelerates. Senior engineers get nervous.
Wasted tool spend
You're paying for GitHub Copilot seats that get used for autocomplete. The 10x productivity tools sit unconfigured or unknown.
Leadership can't measure impact
Engineering leaders know AI should help but can't tell the board what's working, what the ROI is, or what to invest in next.
What I Do
I install AI-native workflows that stick.
I embed with your engineering team for days or weeks, not months. I audit your current development process, identify the highest-leverage integration points, and set up production-ready AI tooling that your team actually adopts.
The stack I deploy is battle-tested from my own engineering org:
Claude Code
Agentic coding that handles multi-file changes, refactors, and feature builds autonomously. The single biggest velocity multiplier available today.
Conductor
Orchestration layer for parallelizing AI agents across your codebase. Multiple tasks running simultaneously with proper guardrails.
CodeRabbit
AI-powered code review that catches issues before they merge. Consistent, thorough, and integrated into your existing PR workflow.
I'm a practitioner, not a consultant who read a blog post. I use these tools every day to ship production software. I know what works, what breaks, and how to make it stick with real engineering teams.
Services
Engagement models that fit how you work.

Get StartedAbout
Built by a CTO who ships with these tools daily.
I'm Wei Sun. I'm CTO at Arcade, where I lead engineering and ship product daily with the same AI-native workflows I help other teams adopt. Before that, I was CTO and then CEO of Upduo, which was acquired by Arcade in 2025. Earlier in my career, I worked on machine learning at Apple.
I studied at MIT and have spent my career at the intersection of engineering leadership and applied AI. When agentic coding tools started getting good, I didn't delegate the evaluation — I rebuilt my own workflows from scratch, found what works, and systematized the results into repeatable playbooks.
Now I help other engineering leaders do the same thing, without the months of trial and error.
