You’ve got questions,
we’ve got answers
No. The AI Readiness Program isn’t a product or subscription, it’s a strategy service we deliver with you.
This package is focused on assessment, strategy, and planning. We map where you are today, highlight the biggest opportunities, and give you a roadmap that makes sense for your team and budget.
We're not here to hand over glossy decks destined to collect dust, we create plans designed to be acted on. While this program stops at strategy, many teams continue on to our implementation services so the recommendations we make are ones we know can actually work in practice.
The result is a clear, doable plan you can take forward with confidence, whether you run with it yourself or choose to keep working with us.
Depending on your team size and chosen package, the program runs 2–8 weeks. From your side, expect a handful of workshops and individual stakeholder interviews with some folks on your team. We come prepared and keep the lift light while making sure the outputs reflect your reality.
We’ll need a few hours from department leaders for workshops and deep dives, plus 60–90 minutes with key individuals for process mapping.
Beyond that, we do the heavy lifting: mapping, analyzing, and turning it all into a strategy your team can act on.
Yes. To build a real picture of your setup, we’ll need access to the tools we’re evaluating—how they’re used, how data flows, where the gaps are.
We use industry-leading 1Password for secure logins, and only your project team has access.
We keep spots limited so we can give each client focus. Typically, we can kick off within 3–6 weeks. We also help you prep for kickoff to prepare you and your team for a smooth start.
