Step 01

The AI Foundations Sprint

Weeks, not quarters. One real result, proven on your own work, and yours to run.

Why this, why now

Most businesses do not fail at AI because the tools are bad.They fail at adoption.

01

The training fades

A workshop lands, then nothing changes the following Monday. People drift back to old habits.

02

No clear step one

Too much at once and no obvious place to start, so it stalls before it delivers anything.

03

Quiet risk in the meantime

Staff in scattered private chats, pasting client material into accounts nobody approved, because nobody set the rules.

The AI Foundations Sprint fixes the adoption problem, not just the tool problem.

It moves the team off scattered private chats and into one shared setup they actually use, with one real result proven on your own work.

What happens in the Sprint

Six steps, and a free one before them

Tap any card for the detail
01

Safe working rules

A one page position your leadership actually signs.

Plus a simple sorting of what information can go where, and clear rules for safe use. Most teams have been waiting for exactly this permission slip.

02

One shared setup

A tidy shared workspace grounded in your own approved material.

One rule set and setups by role, so the whole team works from the same trusted sources instead of fifty private conversations.

03

Team launch session

Half a day, live. Your people use it on their own real work.

Not a demonstration of somebody else’s work. They leave having done something with it, which is the only version that sticks.

04

Shortlist and pick one

Your ways of working scored and ranked, then one priority chosen together.

A clear step one, not a forty item wish list. The ones we rule out get ruled out plainly, with the reason.

05

Build it and prove it

The priority work rebuilt as a written process, tested on live work, measured.

With a person in the loop by design. We agree the number before we start, so nobody argues about it afterwards.

06

Thirty day plan

Rhythm, owners and measures, so the progress survives us leaving.

Which is the point. We leave.

What you keep

The handover pack, yours on the last day

Six documents your team actually uses

Not a slide deck. The version somebody opens on a Tuesday morning.

  • Your AI position, one page, signed by leadership
  • The quick rules card, in plain words
  • Your operating guide: what is out of bounds and who decides
  • The shared setup guide, so a new starter is up in an afternoon
  • Your proven workflow, written down, with the number it delivered
  • Your thirty day plan, with owners

The test we hold it to

Could your team run all of this next month without us?

If the answer is no, the Sprint has not finished. There is no login to us, no licence to us, and no thread that runs back to us.

The Sprint scope

What the AI Foundations Sprint will and will not do

We never hold the keys

Your team runs its own AI, in tools your business has approved.

We advise and set things up. We never operate it for you, which means you are never dependent on us to keep it working.

One result, proven properly

End to end, with a person in the loop, rather than gesturing at ten.

Anything further is a separately scoped, fixed price next step. Proving one thing properly is worth more than starting ten.

Fixed fee, no creep

One price agreed before we start. Half to begin, half on delivery.

Anything outside the scope is quoted as its own piece. Never billed by the hour, never a surprise.

Who it is for

Businesses where somebody senior still owns the operational reality

A good fit if

People already use AI their own way, and you want one real thing working.

Independent Australian businesses of roughly fifteen to fifty people, where the founder, managing director or general manager still carries responsibility for how the work gets done. It fits independent media and creative agencies especially well, because that is where the pattern is sharpest.

The wrong fit if

You want somebody to run your AI for you, or you want ten things at once.

Also the wrong fit if what you are really after is a report. The Sprint changes how the work happens, and that is uncomfortable in a way a document is not.
