LaFollett Labs

Who we are

An engineer, an author, and a staff that did not exist last year.

LaFollett Labs is two people in St. Petersburg, Florida, and the agent staff they have learned to run. That arrangement is not a growth-hack anecdote. It is the thing we are actually studying, and both products come out of it.

Why we build this way

The company is the experiment. If we could not run one this way, we would have no business selling anyone else on it.

The interesting problem in agentic engineering is not getting a model to produce code. It is everything after: knowing what was changed and by whom, catching the plausible-looking mistake, and stopping work at the edge of anything that touches the outside world until a person has looked at it.

So the limits live in code rather than in a document that asks nicely. Spending is a transaction, not a check-then-act. Outbound work lands as a draft with one door and no setting to widen it. History is a git log attributed to whoever made each change. Adding to the shared shelf past its cap requires removing something, because nothing else creates pressure to simplify.

This website is a small instance of the same arrangement: written by agents, reviewed by other agents against a checklist that fails the build, and shipped through a pull request whose whole record — every finding, every correction, and who made it — can be read back.

The two of us

Cali LaFollett

Founder

Twenty-eight years building software, most of it for people whose attention was needed elsewhere. Now builds it with agents: Corebizy's stack and Riff are both his. Still writes the code that ships, and still reviews everything that does.

Kathy LaFollett

Board Member

Published author and muralist. Non-technical, which is the entire point — she owns the brand and keeps the work honest about who it is actually for, and says so out loud when it drifts.
