01
AI readiness assessment
A clear-eyed review of your data, systems, skills, security and governance, scored against what your use cases actually need.
AI Strategy
An AI strategy that names a number.
We help leadership teams cut through the noise: where AI will measurably improve cost, revenue or risk in your business, what it will take to get there, and what to ignore.
Is this for you?
Sound familiar?
If any of these describe where you are, this is the right place to start.
The board wants an AI plan, and you need one you can defend.
Teams are running scattered experiments with no shared direction.
Pilots impressed in demos but never reached production.
You’re weighing AI vendors and platforms with no fair way to compare them.
Scope
What’s included.
Strategy from people who have shipped AI in production, so every recommendation is costed by someone who knows what building it takes.
02
Use-case discovery
Workshops with the people who do the work, not just executives, to find the repetitive, high-volume tasks where AI fits.
03
Prioritization & business case
Each opportunity scored on value, feasibility and risk, with cost models that include inference, maintenance and change management.
04
Roadmap & operating model
Sequenced initiatives, owners and budgets, plus the team structure needed to deliver and support them.
05
Governance & responsible AI
Practical policies for data use, model risk and human review, mapped to requirements such as the EU AI Act.
06
Vendor & build-vs-buy analysis
Independent comparison of platforms and providers. We don’t resell software, so our only incentive is the right answer.

FAQ
Questions we hear often.
No. Part of the assessment is working out which data matters for which use case. Many valuable first projects need far less data preparation than people expect.
Our strategists are engineers who build what they recommend. The roadmap is costed by people who know what implementation takes, and we can deliver it if you want us to.
No. Some of the most useful findings are the places where a rules engine, a better form or a process change beats a model.
An executive sponsor, one or two people who own the target processes, and someone from IT or data. Usually under ten hours each across the engagement.
