A working tool is a saved, reusable AI tool an employee runs on a real task during the session, with output the team lead accepts.

Start small, or start with the whole team.

Founding pilot

$5,000

List $6,500. Three places this quarter.

The full-day workshop plus a 30-day savings report, in return for a case study and 2 referrals.

AI Quick Start

$1,500

A 2-hour live session where the team builds 3 working AI tools on its real work. An owner can approve this on one call.

Automation Workshop

$6,500

20-75 staff. $9,500 for 75-200.

Up to 20 people, 5 working tools guaranteed, an AI-use policy, a savings report and a list of next workflows.

AI for Deal Teams

Scoped on the audit call

A half-day session at a PE firm, built on deal work: CIMs into one-page briefs, target lists, memo outlines and KPI summaries.

After the workshop we keep building: deeper automations connected to your software, monthly support with one new automation a month, and portfolio rollouts across a fund’s companies. All scoped once we’ve seen the work.

If your team doesn’t leave with 5 working tools, you don’t pay.

What it covers5 tools per team of up to 20 people.

What we need from you10+ repetitive tasks sent 5 days before, business AI accounts set up, and a leader in the room for the last hour. Otherwise the guarantee doesn’t apply.

How it’s writtenAll of this goes in a one-page agreement.

Run your own number.

We count only half of the time saved, because nobody redirects all of it.

Projected, not measured. Your day-30 report replaces these with measured numbers, and your team signs off on the assumptions.

Built for companies of 20 to 200 people.

Operating partners

Measured savings and a playbook you can roll out across the portfolio, in your 100-day and value creation plans.

Portco leaders

You’re paying for ChatGPT, Claude or Copilot seats that few people use well. Get hours back and numbers for the board.

Search-fund CEOs

You bought the company last year and need year-one profit gains. This is a fast win to show your investors.

Fair questions.

You aren’t paying for training. You’re paying for working tools on your team’s real tasks, plus a report that puts dollars next to them.

Tools run in your own business AI accounts. In the room we use public or made-up examples, and real files only go into your own accounts. Patient data stays out without the right agreements.

A person approves the outputs. The tools help your team do the work faster, and your team lead decides what’s acceptable.

We count 50% of estimated time saved. Day-1 figures are labelled projected, day-30 figures are labelled measured, and you sign off on the assumptions.

No. Workshops can run in person or remotely.

Ibi, a Drexel engineer who builds AI tools for businesses. Founding pilots are open now, so you’d be one of the first three companies this quarter. That’s why the guarantee is what it is.

Twenty minutes. One number.
