Strategize.
A roadmap for where AI fits, what to prioritize, and how to proceed.
- Founders
- Small businesses
- CTOs & ops VPs
Decide where AI fits before committing resources.
We assess candidate uses of AI against your goals, data, existing systems, budget, and team capacity. The work can include feasibility testing, architecture, build-versus-buy analysis, and the requirements for an initial implementation.
You receive a written recommendation that explains the options, costs, assumptions, and risks. We don't resell anyone's platform. If an existing tool, a simpler process, or further testing is the better next step, the recommendation will make that clear.
Formats
- Two-week strategic reviewA focused review of your workflows and constraints, leading to a written roadmap with priorities, cost estimates, and training needs.
- Tooling & subscriptions auditA review of how you work and what you already pay for, with recommendations on tools, subscriptions, and automation.
- Build-vs-buy memosA written comparison of building, buying, or deferring a capability, with costs, risks, and assumptions for each option.
- Board / CTO advisoryQuarterly check-ins for leaders who want a technical sounding board on AI decisions as they come up.
Outcomes
