Ann Arbor concentrates more AI-relevant research per square mile than almost any city its size. The University of Michigan runs top-ranked programs in computer science, robotics, and medicine; Mcity, its purpose-built test facility, made the city an early proving ground for autonomous vehicles; and Michigan Medicine operates one of the country's leading academic health systems. Spin-outs and satellites, from May Mobility to Duo Security, now part of Cisco, grew up around that base.
Downtown and the Main Street corridor host a dense software and startup scene, while the North Campus Research Complex and the university's tech-transfer pipeline keep new companies coming. Detroit's automotive giants are forty minutes away and treat Ann Arbor as their research annex.
arosplatforms builds production AI for Ann Arbor teams in health, mobility, and research software that has to be clinically and scientifically trustworthy, not just a demo. Grounded, owned by you, deployed in your own cloud.

It depends on scope. A focused readiness assessment or a single production use case, like a clinical documentation copilot or a research-operations assistant, is a fixed-fee engagement. Larger builds are scoped after a free discovery call with an honest range.
Healthcare leads, given Michigan Medicine and the health-tech spin-outs around it, followed by mobility and autonomous vehicles anchored by Mcity and May Mobility, then the university's own research and administrative operations. These run on regulated data, where grounded AI pays off.
We are remote-first, work on Eastern time, and meet clients on the ground around downtown, the central campus, and the North Campus Research Complex for discovery, workshops, and key milestones. Your AI runs in your own cloud, not ours.
Yes. We build with privacy, clinical trust boundaries, and auditability from day one, deploy in your environment, and produce the controls and evaluation evidence that health-system risk teams, university IT, and SOC 2 auditors expect.
A first production use case typically goes live in weeks, not quarters. We start from one high-leverage clinical, mobility, or research workflow, prove it with evaluation, then expand.
