How an AI Business Unit gets diagnosed, built, and deployed.

A repeatable, five-step methodology. No surprises, no €200k discovery phase, no quarterly steering committees.

TL;DR

From signed engagement to a Unit running in your business: typically 4–6 weeks. The first two weeks are diagnostic and audit. Weeks 3–4 are configuration. Weeks 5–6 are deploy and stabilization. Twelve months of support is included. We do not sell engagements longer than 8 weeks because longer engagements rarely ship.

STEP 01

Diagnostic call (15 minutes)

An operator on your side, a senior diagnostician on ours. We map current frictions, what AI can realistically do today, and whether a Unit is the right answer. About 1 in 4 calls ends with us recommending you don't buy anything.

STEP 02

On-site or remote audit (1 day)

We sit with the people doing the work. We measure baseline KPIs (food cost variance, fee-earner hours, stockout rate, etc). We confirm the Unit selection — or compose two.

Included in engagement

STEP 03

Productize & configure (3–4 weeks)

We tune the Unit to your data, vocabulary, and integrations. You see and sign off on the actual outputs before deploy. No black boxes, no surprise demos.

STEP 04

Deploy (week 5–6)

Hardware shipped and racked, or EU cloud provisioned. Operator training session. First insights or outputs land within days.

STEP 05

Support (12 months included)

Two weeks of hand-holding, then quarterly check-ins. Model refresh twice a year. Slack channel for fast questions.

Methodology principles

Five non-negotiables.

Operator-first diagnosis

We don't talk to procurement until we've talked to the person doing the work.

Outcome-named Units

Every Unit owns a measurable KPI. If we can't name it, we don't ship it.

Local-first when sensitive

Where data sensitivity warrants it, we default to on-prem hardware.

Owned, not leased

Default pricing model is one-time. Rental exists, but it's the alternative, not the standard.

Refuse the 4-month engagement

If it can't ship in 8 weeks, the Unit isn't ready. We say no.

Honest scoping

About 25% of diagnostic calls end with 'don't buy anything yet'. That's a feature.
