Advisory & implementation
Senior, pragmatic guidance for teams deciding what to build, where AI fits and how to get it into production.
Sometimes the most valuable thing we can do is help you decide: what to build, what to buy, where AI genuinely earns its keep and where it's a gimmick. Honest counsel from people who also ship, so the advice survives contact with production.
How we can help.
AI opportunity audits
A short, fixed-price engagement: we map your workflows, identify where AI genuinely saves time or money, and give you a prioritised roadmap.
Technical discovery
Understand the problem, the systems and the constraints before anyone writes expensive code.
Prototype-to-production planning
A realistic route from promising demo to something your business can depend on. Architecture, cost and risk included.
Fractional product support
Senior product and technical leadership a few days a month, without the full-time hire.
Outcomes, not deliverables.
- A prioritised roadmap with honest ROI estimates
- Clear build, buy or wait decisions
- A pilot scoped to prove value quickly
- Senior counsel without a full-time hire
What we reach for.
Proven, boring where it should be, and chosen to fit the systems you already run. Everything is documented and yours to keep.
Prove the value before you overbuild.
Every engagement follows the same four steps. You know what happens each week, what you get at the end of it, and what it costs before it starts.
Read the full approachFind the bottleneck Weeks 1 to 2
We sit with the people doing the work, map the process end to end and find where time and money actually leak. If AI is on your mind, this is where we tell you honestly whether it belongs in the answer.
- A written map of the workflow and its cost
- A ranked list of opportunities
- A recommended first pilot with scope, price and success metric
Build the smallest useful thing Weeks 3 to 6
A fixed-scope pilot that solves one real problem for real users. Instrumented from day one, so the outcome is a number rather than an opinion.
- Working software in the hands of your team
- Weekly demos, direct access to the builder
- Measured against the metric we agreed
Integrate and scale When the number moves
If the pilot proves out, we harden it, connect it to the systems around it and roll it out properly. If it does not, you have spent weeks finding out rather than quarters.
- Production build with documentation
- Integrations with your existing tools
- Training and handover for your team
Measure and improve Ongoing, optional
We track real usage and only expand what is proving valuable. Retained support if you want it, a clean handover if you do not.
- Monthly review of the numbers
- Small improvements shipped continuously
- You own the code, designs and data throughout
