Discovery Workshops That Give You Clarity Before Commitment

Before you invest in AI, you need to know if it’s the right investment. Not every business problem needs AI. Sometimes better process is the answer. We tell you honestly which applies to you.

Choose the level of depth that matches where you are in your thinking, or start with a free call if you’re not sure.

No charge
Limited slots each month

Free: 30-Minute Discovery Call

Not sure where to start? Let’s find out together.

A focused conversation to understand your business, your challenges, and whether AI might genuinely help. No pitch, no pressure - just an honest assessment of where you are and what might make sense.

What Happens

  • You tell us about your business and what’s frustrating you
  • We ask questions to understand the real problems (not just the symptoms)
  • We give you an honest steer: which workshop tier fits, whether you need something different, or whether AI isn’t the right path yet

What You Get

  • Clarity on whether AI exploration is worth your time right now
  • A recommendation for next steps (even if that’s “sort this other thing first”)
  • No obligation whatsoever

What This Isn’t

This isn’t a free consulting session. We won’t solve your problems in 30 minutes or give you a strategy to take away. Think of it as triage - we’re working out what you need, not providing it.

Limited availability: We offer a small number of these calls each month to ensure we can give proper attention to businesses we’re actively working with. If slots are full, you can join the waitlist or book directly into Tier 1.

Paid Workshop Options

Tier 1

Is AI Right for You?

Assessment
£2,500
+ travel expenses

For businesses wondering if AI is worth exploring

Who This Is For

You’ve heard the AI hype. You suspect there might be opportunities in your business. But you’re not sure if it’s real or just noise - and you don’t want to waste money finding out the hard way.

What Makes This Different

Unlike consultancies that always find AI opportunities (funny, that), we start by understanding your actual problems. Sometimes the answer is better processes. Sometimes it’s AI. Sometimes it’s “not yet - here’s what you need to sort first.” We’ll tell you which.

What You Get
  • Half-day on-site session with your leadership team
  • Discovery report with honest AI applicability assessment
  • Clear recommendation (proceed, pivot, or pause) with next steps
The Outcome

You’ll know whether to invest further in AI exploration - or solve your problem another way. Either answer saves you money.

Tier 2

From Problem to Possibility

Workshop
£5,000
+ travel expenses

For businesses with a specific challenge who suspect AI might help

Who This Is For

You’ve got a problem that’s costing you time, money, or competitive advantage. You think AI might be part of the solution, but you need someone who can evaluate it properly - and explain it to both your board and your technical team.

What Makes This Different

We speak three languages fluently: boardroom ROI, technical architecture, and operational workflow. Your MD gets business cases. Your IT team gets implementation realities. Your operations staff get reassurance about what changes (and what doesn’t). All from one workshop, because we understand all three worlds.

What You Get
  • Full-day on-site workshop with cross-functional stakeholders
  • ROI projections and technical feasibility evaluation
  • Comprehensive workshop report with risk assessment
The Outcome

A clear picture of whether AI can solve your specific problem, what it would take to implement, and whether the numbers justify the investment.

Tier 3

Board-Ready Business Case

Blueprint
£10,000
+ travel expenses

For businesses ready to invest but needing confidence it’s the right investment

Who This Is For

You’re serious about AI transformation. You need a proper business case that will get board approval - but more importantly, you need confidence that what gets approved can actually be delivered. Too many strategies gather dust because nobody checked if they were buildable.

What Makes This Different

Most consultancies hand you a beautiful strategy then disappear. We only recommend what we know can be implemented - because we’re the ones who build these solutions. Your strategy will be grounded in technical reality, sized to your actual resources, and designed to work with your existing systems.

What You Get
  • Organisation-wide stakeholder interviews and AI opportunity mapping
  • Board-ready presentation with detailed ROI modelling
  • Phased implementation roadmap with 30-day follow-up support
The Outcome

A transformation plan your board will approve AND your team can actually deliver. Strategy that becomes reality, not shelfware.

What Happens Next?

After any workshop, you’ll have clarity on your path forward:

If AI is right for you:

We can help with proof-of-concept development, fractional AI leadership, or full implementation - but there’s no pressure. The workshop deliverables are yours to take wherever you choose.

If AI isn’t right yet:

We’ll tell you what needs to happen first. Sometimes that’s data foundations, sometimes it’s process improvement, sometimes it’s simply “wait for the technology to mature.” Honest advice, even when it means no project.

Why We Do This Differently

We’ve seen too many businesses waste money on AI initiatives that were never going to work - either because the technology wasn’t right, the data wasn’t ready, or nobody checked if the team could maintain it. Our workshops exist to give you confidence before you commit serious budget. And sometimes that confidence comes from knowing AI isn’t the answer - at least not yet.

If you need someone to tackle a difficult technical problem and then explain the solution to a non-technical person, Chris is who you want.

Frequently Asked Questions

No catch. We’d rather spend 30 minutes learning you’re not ready for AI than have you spend £2,500 on a workshop that won’t help. The call is genuinely diagnostic - we’re working out what you need, not selling you what we’ve got. If AI isn’t right for you yet, we’ll say so.

That’s exactly what the free discovery call is for. We’ll ask about your situation and recommend the right level - or tell you if none of them fit. Sometimes businesses need something different entirely, and we’d rather point you in the right direction than sell you the wrong workshop.

Because our time has to go primarily to businesses we’re actively working with. We limit discovery calls to ensure quality conversations, not rushed box-ticking. If slots are full, you can join the waitlist or book directly into Tier 1 if you’re confident that’s the right starting point.

We can, but we’ve found on-site works significantly better for discovery work. Reading the room, catching the sidebar conversations, seeing how teams actually work together - these matter. Remote is an option if geography makes on-site impossible, but we’ll be honest that you’ll get more value from face-to-face.

We’ve delivered AI solutions across retail, finance, healthcare, manufacturing, education, and security. The specific industry matters less than having genuine problems worth solving and data to work with. Cross-industry experience actually helps - techniques that transformed retail might solve your logistics problem.

Everything we produce is yours. Reports, recommendations, frameworks - all of it. Our value isn’t in keeping secrets; it’s in helping you succeed.

Typically 2-4 weeks from booking, depending on diary alignment. We don’t rush the preparation - understanding your business before we arrive makes the workshop itself far more valuable.
