Working AI, on your real problems, in your stack, deployed with your team. Not a roadmap. Not a report. If we can't do that, we tell you on day one.
We're AI-native ourselves. The engagements are short because we use the tools we install.
The company can't move at AI's speed.
You can ship a prototype in a week. Deploying it to a team takes a quarter. The quarter is the bottleneck, not the week. Every AI engagement that ignores this produces something that works in the demo and dies in the rollout.
The people weren't trained for the work AI leaves them.
AI absorbs execution. What's left is judgment, coordination, and systems thinking. Most people in your company were hired, trained, and promoted for execution. They don't know how to operate in the space AI creates. No one has shown them.
The company runs on meetings, not systems.
AI can operate anything that has an interface. Most companies don't. Decisions happen in Slack threads, Google docs, and someone's head. You can't point AI at that. You have to build the interface first.
The consultancies don't deploy.
The deck lands. The partner leaves. The deployment was never in scope. You pay for the diagnosis and then pay someone else to do the treatment.
Above The AI exists in the gap between these four failures and a working AI program.
[ I ]
5 to 10 days, fixed fee
Clarity in days, not weeks.
For leaders who need a real read on whether their company can actually use AI. Not another vendor shortlist. Not another deck. A small senior team, on-site and remote. You leave with a map of the real gaps, a 90-day plan with named owners, and a clear call on whether a prototype makes sense. Most roll into one within 60 days.
Start an audit →[ II ]
2 to 4 weeks, milestone pricing
Use cases in weeks, not months.
For teams with a thesis that needs to be proven. One use case, built with your team, deployed to real work, measured against criteria we wrote down before we started. The deployment milestone only invoices if the thing ships. You leave with something running. And people on your team who built it with us and can change it without calling us back.
Start a prototype →[ III ]
Scoped per engagement, retainer plus outcomes
Outcomes in months, not years.
For companies past the pilot stage. We run the diagnose, build, handover cycle on a cadence that fits your org, build the internal team that will own it, and make sure the second and third use cases are shipped by them, not us. Off-ramp, not lock-in. Most engagements end with us reduced to a quarterly check-in.
Talk about embedding →A prompt library. A change management workshop with no technology attached. A 120-slide deck. An AI “strategy” that doesn't name the thing being built. Hours.
