SERVICE 01 — AI CONSULTING

AI strategy that becomes a roadmap.

An eight-day engagement that maps your highest-leverage AI opportunities, sizes the ROI, and hands you a costed roadmap your team can act on this quarter.

Built for the teams who can't wait for results.

This engagement is for operators who already know they have a problem worth solving — and want a senior team to ship the fix in weeks.

  • Operators with a real budget who keep hearing 'AI' and need a clear-eyed read.
  • Engineering leaders who've run a pilot and need help moving from demo to production.
  • Boards/CEOs who want a third-party assessment before greenlighting a multi-quarter AI program.

Deliverables

  • 30–50 slide strategy deck (your team can present it internally).
  • Spreadsheet ROI model — every opportunity, costed.
  • 12-month roadmap with named owners and dependencies.
  • Build-vs-buy decision tree.
  • 30 days of post-delivery Slack/email support.

A focused engagement.

Six things we ship inside this track. Some clients use a subset; most use all.

01

Opportunity audit

We interview your team, audit your stack, and rank the ten highest-impact AI opportunities by ROI and feasibility.

02

ROI modelling

Each opportunity gets sized: cost to build, cost to run, expected lift, payback period. Spreadsheet handed over.

03

Stack & vendor selection

Anthropic vs OpenAI vs open-source. RAG vs fine-tune vs agent. We give you a defensible choice, not a hype list.

04

Risk & governance

Where the model can hurt you. Privacy, hallucination, IP, bias. Mitigations included.

05

Build-vs-buy map

For each opportunity: should you build, buy, or wait. Specific vendor names. Specific reasons.

06

Costed roadmap

12-month plan with quarterly milestones, dependencies, and a hiring/contracting plan.

How a typical engagement runs.

Async-first. Senior-only. Weekly demos.

01

Kickoff

Two-hour kickoff. We meet your operators, engineers and finance lead. Walk away with a clear scope.

02

Discovery

Five days of interviews, system audits, and benchmarking. Daily Looms. We share the long-list at end of week one.

03

Synthesis

We rank, model and stress-test the shortlist. You see the working draft on day eight.

04

Handover

Final deck, ROI model and roadmap delivered. 60-min walkthrough. 30 days of follow-up Q&A included.

Common questions.

Five things people ask before signing.

Is eight days really enough?+

Yes — for a strategy engagement. We don't write code; we give you the answer to which code to write. Build sprints come after.

How much does it cost?+

Fixed fee, $14,500. We share that upfront so finance teams can plan.

Do you work with my industry?+

We've done this for SaaS, healthcare, retail, automotive, real estate and education. The methodology is industry-agnostic; the answers aren't.

Do I need an in-house data team?+

No. We work with whatever data you have — and tell you what's missing.

Can you help us hire post-roadmap?+

Yes. We refer engineers and AI specialists from our network. No hiring fees.
