Brix
the asset marketplace under QuantumBlack's gen-AI work. turns RAG pipelines, agent loops, and evaluators into productised, versioned, composable assets.
Problem
Every gen-AI engagement at scale rebuilds the same primitives: a RAG pipeline, an agent loop, an evaluator, a guardrail. We watched the same RAG pipeline ship three different ways in three weeks across three engagements. Smart engineers, none of the work composable. The cost curve never bent.
Approach
Brix is the asset marketplace under all of QuantumBlack's gen-AI work. It turns every building block into a discoverable, versioned, productised asset that any team can pull and compose, instead of reinventing.
- Marketplace, not service team — assets are pulled, not requested. No coordination tax.
- Versioned + tested — every asset ships with provenance, tests, and a usage interface.
- Composable — assets are designed to plug into each other and into the vertical products built on top.

Outcome
The asset layer powering Applied AI Verticals. Cost-per-engagement on shared primitives is down significantly. Same components running across financial services, life sciences, energy, retail.
