From AI curious to AI-native

Transform your business with AI

I build custom AI products and integrate them into your organization, with the governance, training, and change management required for successful adoption.

The Problem

AI Adoption is Failing Across Organizations

The problem is not building AI tools. The problem is that AI is not getting adopted inside organizations. Prototypes never ship. Tools never get used. There's no governance, no strategy, no integration into operations.

Stuck at Experimentation
?

Stuck at Experimentation

Most companies have done little more than deploy ChatGPT. They are late, confused, and stuck cycling through pilots that never become production systems.

Internal Resistance
X

Internal Resistance

Fear, confusion, and resistance block adoption. Without proper change management, even good AI tools get shelved or sabotaged.

Board Pressure, No Strategy
!

Board Pressure, No Strategy

Leadership is demanding an AI strategy, but the organization doesn't know where to start. They're skeptical of consultants selling hype without substance.

No ROI, No Governance
0

No ROI, No Governance

Disconnected experiments with no measurable outcomes. No policies. No security framework. No clear ownership or accountability.

Is This You?

Your Organization

  • $1M-$50M annual revenue
  • 10-200 employees
  • Operations-heavy business
  • Service, agency, media, SaaS, or platform
  • Already using Notion, Airtable, HubSpot, Zapier, or Google Workspace

Your Situation

  • AI-curious but late to adoption
  • Board or leadership asking for AI strategy
  • Concerned about governance and risk
  • Want operational leverage, not AI theater
  • Time-poor, outcome-driven
Our Approach

Strategy, Governance, and Build.
Combined

We deliver AI systems that get deployed and used—with the organizational readiness to make adoption stick. Our approach blends 16 years of startup experience, cutting-edge behavior science and organizational psychology.

Governance First

Governance First

Policies, security frameworks, and accountability structures come before the first line of code. People need to feel safe before anything else.

Ship Real Products

We don't leave you with slides. We leave you with deployed systems, trained teams, and documented processes.

Build Daily Habits

Build Daily Habits

We build for operations, not pilots. Leveraging behavior science and organizational psychology, we build systems that easily integrate into daily routines.

Human Workflows

Human Workflows

We understand the way people work and build AI systems around it to help people do what they do best and let machines do the rest.

Pragmatic Optimism

Pragmatic Optimism

We won't tell you AI will change the world. We'll tell you exactly where it will and won't help your business with specific hypotheses and projected outcomes.

Change Management

Change Management

Adoption doesn't happen by accident. We address resistance, train teams, and align stakeholders before, during, and after the build.

The Market

Why Traditional Options Fail

The AI adoption market is split between expensive generalists and generic free tools. Neither delivers the specialized focus required for operational transformation.

Engagement Structure

Three Distinct Phases.

A complete transformation journey. From strategy to build to adoption.

Readiness & Strategy
Phase 1

Readiness & Strategy

Assess your organization's AI readiness, surface resistance, establish governance, and identify the highest-impact opportunities.

  • Organizational AI readiness assessment
  • Leadership alignment + resistance surfacing
  • Governance + policy scaffolding
  • Opportunity mapping across workflows
  • Technical feasibility review
  • Strategic recommendations report
Product Sprint
Phase 2

Product Sprint

In 2-4 weeks, we ship a real AI product with real data, tested by your users and deployed on your infrastructure. We also teach product teams how to deliver this methodology.

  • Design Sprint methodology
  • AI-assisted development for rapid iteration
  • Daily standups and weekly demos
  • Fully moderated user testing
  • Production-ready deployment
  • Full documentation and handover
Adoption & Integration
Phase 3

Adoption & Integration

Before we build, we align. During the build, we coach. After we ship, we integrate. While we integrate, we iterate. Smooth, working process. Happy, aligned team.

  • Stakeholder mapping and alignment
  • Fear and resistance addressed proactively
  • Role clarity in human-AI workflows
  • Executive coaching and support
  • Change management integration

Common Questions

It depends on the quality of that strategy. If you have clear governance policies, stakeholder alignment, and identified high-impact opportunities with technical feasibility confirmed, you may be ready for Phase 2. We'll assess this in our initial call.

That's exactly what Phase 1 addresses. We surface resistance early, understand its roots (fear of job loss, distrust of technology, past bad experiences), and build alignment before any building starts. Fatma specializes in this organizational psychology work.

Agencies build for you, then leave. We build with you, transfer knowledge, ensure adoption, and provide the governance and change management that makes AI stick. You don't just get a product—you get the organizational capability to maintain and extend it.

Internal operations tools, customer-facing applications, workflow automation, document processing, knowledge management systems, analytics dashboards with AI insights—anything that delivers measurable business value. We focus on what will actually get used.

Phase 1 (AI Readiness & Strategy) takes 1-2 weeks. Phase 2 (AI Product Sprint) takes 2-4 weeks depending on complexity. Total engagement: 4-8 weeks from kickoff to deployed, adopted AI systems. We also provide ongoing retainers for supporting AI transformation beyond custom product integration.

Yes. We work remotely with companies globally. The methodology is designed for distributed collaboration, and we adjust meeting times to accommodate different time zones.
