Production-ready AI prototype
One use case. Your data. A KPI you name.
For leaders who already know where AI should go first. We build that use case on your data, measure it against a KPI you set, and show you a mock-up before you commit.
- Built on your real data
- KPI written into the SOW
- Nothing to sign until you’ve seen the mock-up
Why it’s different
Built to get past the pilot stage
Only 5% of custom enterprise AI tools make it past pilot. Most fail on workflow fit and integration, not the model.

| Typical AI pilot | Production-ready AI prototype | |
|---|---|---|
| Data | Sample files | Your real data, in a controlled environment |
| Scope | Open-ended | One use case, fixed before you sign |
| Measure of success | Defined later, if at all | A KPI in the SOW, measured from a baseline |
| Governance | Added once it works | Access controls, audit logging and compliance design from the start |
| Commitment | Budget before you see anything | Nothing to sign until you’ve seen the mock-up |
| What you end with | A demo | A working solution and a costed plan for production |
How it works
Four steps, one commitment
01
Business case
Every department has AI ideas, but nobody can say which ones will pay back.
02
Mock-up and reviews
A working picture of the finished product in one week, then a business review and a technical review with your team.
03
Agree and sign
Scope and price are fixed. This is your first commitment.
04
Build and measure
16–24 weeks on your data, measured against the KPI, ending with a costed plan for production.
