Decide
Architecture, platform, and vendor decisions, with a written opinion you can put your name on.
Sterling Blake Partners
The technology between you and your customers.
Servicing, marketing, customer data, and the AI agents now running inside them. Built and run inside a top-25 US bank and a global consumer brand. Now built for you.
The premise
Most customer platforms were assembled, not designed.
Three CRMs that grew up apart. A marketing stack that does not know what service said an hour ago. Customer data nobody owns. AI pilots that never leave pilot. A stack sized for a quiet Tuesday and a launch that is not.
We fix it at the architecture. Then we build.
What we do
Decide. Lead. Build.
Lead
Technical leadership on the owner’s side of the table, on programs the large firms deliver.
Build
AI agents, customer platforms, and launches, delivered under a single accountable lead.
Who we are
Fifteen years inside the systems customers use.
Sterling Blake Partners is led by Sterling Morrison. At Ally he led the engineering behind the bank’s customer platform across five lines of business, and built the platforms its new businesses launched on. At Fanatics he leads engineering and AI-agent work across every channel a customer touches. Before that he sold and delivered technology for mid-size companies and shipped products of his own.
We have integrated acquisitions, launched partnerships, migrated live platforms, and put AI in front of customers in regulated environments. We know what a statement of work leaves out, because we have written them from the buyer’s chair.
The person you talk to is the person accountable for the result.
How we work
A conversation. A written answer. Then, if it is earned, the build.
