Most AI initiatives fail because teams build what's technically possible—not what users actually need.
Without alignment on goals and real user insights, you risk months of development on features no one trusts or adopts.
Stop debating. Start building the right AI.
A 2-session collaborative workshop to turn AI ambition into an actionable plan—based on user needs, expertly facilitated.
How it works
Workshop session 1
Define and align
Align your team on your users, their needs, and the challenge you're solving.
Core deliverables
- Problem definition your team agrees on
- Personas that clarify who you're building for
- Journey maps that reveal where AI creates value
Workshop session 2
Prioritize and design
Move from understanding to action with prioritized requirements and high-level designs.
Core deliverables
- Prioritized requirements with clear rationale
- Design concepts evaluated and refined by your team
- Action plan with next steps and success metrics
Who this is for
Leaders at SMBs and mid-market companies who are:
- Exploring AI but unclear where to start
- Managing competing opinions on what to build
- Responsible for product success but need team buy-in
- Under pressure to deliver AI value quickly
You'll work directly with expert facilitators who've designed and launched AI products—not consultants learning on your time.

Frequently asked questions
Either—both have merits. Virtual sessions work well for distributed teams and when calendars become challenging. Great collaboration tools make remote workshops highly effective. In-person can be important when your team needs dedicated focus away from daily distractions, or when building deeper alignment requires face-to-face connection.
Typically 4-8 people—decision-makers, product leads, and key stakeholders who need to align on your AI direction.
That's exactly why this workshop exists. We facilitate alignment through structured research and collaborative exercises—not debate.
No. This workshop is designed for business leaders making strategic decisions about AI—technical knowledge isn't required.
Most engagements run $10K-$20K depending on team size and complexity.
Many teams move directly into prototyping and usability testing to validate their concepts with real users. Others focus on implementation planning and technical architecture. We can support either path.
