The biggest risk with AI is not the technology — it is spending six months building something that does not move the business. A focused strategy engagement fixes that.
What we do
We map where AI can realistically create value across your products and operations, pressure-test feasibility and data readiness, and turn it into a sequenced, costed roadmap your team can actually execute. You get clarity on what to build first, what to buy, and what to ignore.
How the engagement runs
Workshops with the people who own the work. Not just leadership — the operators who know where the hours actually go. The best AI opportunities are usually buried in workflows nobody has looked at in years.
A data reality check. Every AI idea is secretly a data question. We audit what exists, where it lives, what it would take to use it, and which ideas die on contact with reality — better to find out in week one than month four. (Why AI projects fail is essentially a list of things this step catches.)
Feasibility and sizing. For each surviving opportunity: what accuracy is achievable, what it costs to build and run, what the payback looks like, and the risks — technical, organisational and regulatory.
The roadmap. A written, prioritised plan: quick wins first, dependencies mapped, each item costed and sized, with an explicit build-vs-buy call. It is designed to be executed by whoever you choose — us, your team, or another vendor. If you are weighing that choice itself, we wrote an honest guide to in-house vs agency.
What you walk away with
A document your CTO and your CFO can both act on: the top opportunities ranked by value and feasibility, the data work each one requires, realistic cost ranges (consistent with our public cost guide), and a sequenced first-90-days plan. No buzzword decks. The deliverable is judged by one test: can you make funding decisions with it?
Why us rather than a big consultancy
Because we build. Every recommendation is written by people who will happily be held to it in an engineering engagement — which is a strong filter against advice that sounds good but does not survive contact with production. And we are small, so you get the senior people, not the pyramid.
