  • A quarterly roadmap. The next workflows to fix, with an owner and a date on each.
  • Rules for AI use. Which tools, which data, and who checks the output before it goes anywhere.
  • Training by role. AI training for employees on their own real tasks, in the tools you already pay for.

Who AI strategic consulting is for

Mid-sized companies, usually outside tech. Your staff already use AI on their own, and nobody owns the result. You need someone senior to set the order and train the team, without a full-time hire. If you're not sure you're ready, the free AI readiness audit scores your team in about five minutes.

FAQ

Every engagement starts with a fixed-fee Shadow Day or workshop. Continue into a workshop or sprint within 30 days and the Shadow Day fee credits toward it. Sprint and fractional pricing depend on the workflow, and we share them on a short call.
The Shadow Day is one day, with the full report within two business days. A sprint runs six weeks. Fractional head of AI runs month to month, for as long as it keeps paying off.
Usually not. We start with what you already pay for, such as Microsoft Copilot or ChatGPT, and build into the systems where the work happens. A new tool comes in only when the ranked map shows a real gap.
AI strategic consulting decides where AI goes first and in what order. Implementation builds it. We do both. The Shadow Day sets the order, and the AI Sprint builds the first workflow with your team.
