A clear methodology for installing AI — not a science project

Every engagement runs through the same six stages, so you always know what's happening, what we need from you, and what you'll have at the end.

  1. 1

    Audit

    We map how work actually flows across your company and where time, money, and founder attention leak.

    You provide

    Access to your tools (read-only is fine), and a couple of working sessions.

    We build

    A workflow map, headcount-replacement analysis, and a tool-stack review.

    Output

    A prioritized opportunity list and a 30/60/90-day roadmap.

  2. 2

    Architecture

    We design the systems: which agents, which automations, what data they use, and the guardrails around them.

    You provide

    Decisions on priorities, access, and any compliance constraints.

    We build

    A system architecture, data and access plan, and human-review points.

    Output

    An architecture doc and build plan your team can follow.

  3. 3

    Build

    We implement the systems and connect them to the tools you already use.

    You provide

    Timely access and feedback on early versions.

    We build

    Working agents, automations, dashboards, and integrations.

    Output

    Functioning systems in your accounts, not a prototype on ours.

  4. 4

    Train

    We tune everything on your data, SOPs, and voice, and QA the outputs against real cases.

    You provide

    Examples of good and bad outputs, and your brand and process context.

    We build

    Grounded prompts, retrieval over your docs, and tested behaviors.

    Output

    Systems that produce usable, on-brand, accurate work.

  5. 5

    Deploy

    We roll out to your team with access controls, monitoring, and clear ownership.

    You provide

    Rollout timing and who owns what internally.

    We build

    Role-based access, alerts, fallbacks, and documentation.

    Output

    A live operating layer your team trusts and uses.

  6. 6

    Optimize

    We measure impact, expand coverage to the next workflows, and compound the leverage.

    You provide

    Ongoing priorities and feedback on what's working.

    We build

    Improvements, new workflows, and reporting on time and cost saved.

    Output

    A system that keeps reducing burn as you grow.

Start with stage one.

The Startup AI Audit is the front door to the whole process — and it stands alone if you only want the plan.
