THE PROBLEM

Scale was outpacing
the org chart.

Kidslox had run on a 24-person operational and engineering team across mobile, desktop, web, and platform for roughly seven years.

As the platform kept scaling, operational complexity, support overhead, and delivery coordination kept climbing — and the business needed to grow output without slowing revenue or hurting customer experience.

THE APPROACH

AI-native operations,
end to end.

Ekreative introduced AI-powered workflows across engineering, QA, and delivery — orchestrating coordination, automating repetitive engineering processes, and streamlining support operations.

The team structure was simplified in parallel, with AI-assisted dev ops absorbing the work the redundant headcount used to carry — no slowdown in product velocity or business performance.
