We are
Engineers.
Founded in 2014 by CCIE professionals who recognized a critical inflection point in the industry.
Manual networking is obsolete. Pure AI vendors don't understand network complexity. We bridge that gap—combining deep engineering expertise with modern AI automation.
The Shift
nexthop was built on a simple premise: the era of the "CLI jockey" is ending. We saw consultants walking around with console cables, manually configuring devices one by one. It was slow, error-prone, and unscalable.
At the same time, we saw AI startups pitching solutions that hallucinated whenever they touched a routing table. They didn't understand BGP, VXLAN, or what happens when you break a management plane.
"So we built netx.tools—a platform that proved AI + networking works when built by engineers, for engineers."
Now, we bring that same rigor to enterprise clients. We don't just "implement AI." We rebuild your operations around intelligent, context-aware automation that actually works in production.

Our Differentiation.
Not a VAR
We don't push vendor quotas or sell boxes. Our recommendations are driven strictly by your architecture needs, not our hardware margins.
Not "Pure AI"
We understand enterprise complexity. We know that AI needs guardrails. We know why you can't just "ask an LLM" to re-IP a data center.
Engineers First
When you hire us, you get CCIEs who code. No account managers, no layers of project management fluff. Direct access to expertise.
