PROBLEM MANIFESTO[STATUS]
The industry ships prototypes.
Six months later, the rewrite begins.
We ship production systems.
Forty-eight hours. Zero technical debt.
d.Elves is an autonomous execution engine
that architects, validates, and deploys to
enterprise standards while you focus on the
problem—not the plumbing.

█ Active Node░ Standby▣ Data Flow
We don't generate code.
We generate systems that generate revenue.
No prototypes. No technical debt. No coordination overhead.
Just the work. Built right. Built once.
