Service — Strategy & Advice
Most businesses adopting AI end up with a drawer full of subscriptions and not much that changed. The tools work fine. Nobody decided which parts of the business they were meant to change. This is the work of finding where AI would genuinely pay off, in what order to do it, and what to ignore — and it is far cheaper to decide that before the spending than after.
A clear list of where AI would actually change your costs, your capacity or your speed — and, just as usefully, where it would change nothing.
We test the specific products against your actual work rather than their sales pages, and tell you which ones earn their fee.
For each opportunity: something you can buy, something that needs building, or something not worth doing. With the costs behind each answer.
The order matters more than most plans allow for, because the first result decides whether anyone supports the second.
A usable policy on what can go into which tools. Blanket bans do not work; they move it onto personal phones where you cannot see it.
An honest read on whether you need training, a hire, or neither.
Where time goes, where things pile up, what your people do by hand every week. This is watching the business, not sending a questionnaire.
For each candidate: money saved, capacity freed, or time cut. Anything that does not move one of those comes off the list.
Against your work, not in the abstract. Where nothing on the market fits, we say so rather than recommending the closest thing.
Written down: what to do, in what sequence, what each step costs and what it should return, and the reasoning behind it so you can push back.
Optional, but this field moves quickly and a plan made today will need revisiting.
This is most useful before you have spent much, when you have more ideas than time, and when the question is still what to do rather than how to do it.
It is less useful if you already know what you want built — then this is a detour and you should go straight to building it. If what you really need is a full-time person inside the business, we will tell you that too.
A written plan: where AI would change your business, what to do in what order, what each step costs and returns, and the reasoning throughout. It is written to be used and argued with by your team, not to look impressive.
The audit is a first look that tells you whether there is anything here worth doing. This is the detailed work that follows — specific tools tested against your work, proper sequencing, costs. Plenty of businesses only ever need the audit.
No. We have no reseller deals and take no commission, so recommending you buy something earns us nothing. When the right answer is a product you can buy directly, that is the answer you get.
Usually three to six weeks depending on how much of the business is in scope. If it is running much longer than that, the scope should probably have been narrower.
Yes, but it is separate and not assumed. Some clients take the plan and run it with their own team, which is a perfectly good outcome.
The audit is the short version. It often answers the question on its own, and tells you whether the longer piece of work is worth commissioning.
