AI-NATIVEOPERATIONS
How Kidslox cut its operational team from 24 to 10 — without losing a dollar of revenue.
Kidslox is a parental control and digital safety platform spanning mobile, desktop, web, and platform operations. After 7 years running on a 24-person operational and engineering team, scale was driving up complexity, support load, and coordination overhead. Ekreative rebuilt the company’s operational backbone around AI-native workflows — and shipped the change in about six weeks.
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.
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.
