You're being told you should be using AI. You can't tell if that's true.
Everyone has an opinion about what AI can do for your organisation, and most of them are selling something specific. Underneath that you have a real question: is there anything here that would help the work you actually do, and if so, what do you do first?
WHAT HAPPENS
Two days. The first is conversations, with you and with the people doing the work. The second is going through what you already have, then writing it up.
I'm not looking for AI opportunities. I'm looking at what your work is, where the time goes, and whether any of this touches that. Sometimes it does. Often the thing costing you time has nothing to do with AI, and you should know that before you spend anything.
WHAT YOU GET
A short written answer, in plain language. What AI could realistically do for your business. What it can't, including the claims that won't survive contact with your work. What to do first, if anything. What it's worth.
Written to be read by your leadership team without translation.
WHAT IT COSTS
$3,000 plus GST, fixed.
Two days. Nothing to sign up to afterwards.
WHERE THIS HAS WORKED
At Hogarth I ran a global programme putting automation into film, audio, visual effects, print and digital production across 5,000 people, reporting to a steering committee accountable to the board. Machine learning localisation, automatic transcription, personalisation tools. The technology worked. The full savings didn't land, because the organisation couldn't absorb the change fast enough. That's the part most people won't tell you, and it's usually the part that decides whether this is worth doing.
WRM Water and Environment engaged me for the longer version of this, a full discovery and roadmap across their engineering and operational technology. The finding that mattered most to them wasn't about AI. It was how much of their engineers' time was going to work nobody was paying for.
WHAT THIS ISN'T
It isn't a strategy document or an implementation plan. Two days goes wide, not deep. It tells you where to look rather than building you anything.
It also isn't a lead-in to a bigger engagement. If the answer is do nothing yet, that's the answer, and I'll write it down.
IF YOU'D RATHER TALK FIRST
An hour, no charge, and you'll get a straight opinion in it.
