What our clients say
FAQ
How long does the workshop take?
Typically 1–6 weeks, depending on scope and stakeholder availability. The core workshops are focused and time-efficient. We focus on finding the solutions your business needs and can benefit from right away, and look at the technical debt that you can start working on immediately.
Is this technical or business-focused?
It’s business-first and decision-focused. We cover technical realities where needed, but the goal is to support strategy, prioritization, and next steps, not deep technical design. However, we have a senior tech team supervising the process and ready to step in whenever your business needs it.
Do we need to have AI expertise internally to start?
No. The workshop is designed for teams at different levels of maturity. The Euristiq AI development team deals with the requests ranging from “we’re just starting” to “we already have POCs or AI features in production.”
Will you recommend buying tools or building custom solutions?
We look at all options: buy, build, integrate, or combine. The recommendations are based on your business goals, data, systems, and constraints and not on a one-size-fits-all approach. You can pick human-assisted AI, in some cases autonomous AI will cover some operations, and so on. We look into the requests you have, AI readiness, and technical debt to suggest the options for you.
Can this help us decide where not to use AI?
Yes. A big part of the workshop is identifying what’s not worth doing right now so you avoid wasting time and budget on low-impact or high-risk initiatives. There are other technology options you can implement to improve the existing operations. In some cases, legacy systems become bottlenecks for AI implementation, so we suggest modernization first.
Do you also implement the solutions after the workshop?
Yes. In fact, that’s where most of our clients go next. The workshop is built to simplify execution. Once priorities and scope are clear, we can move straight into delivery. We can start with a PoC or pilot and scale to production. You don’t lose momentum, you don’t repeat strategy work, and you don’t need to re-onboard another vendor.
What happens after the workshop?
You’ll have a clear set of options and recommended next steps. Some teams use this to align internally and plan budgets. Others choose to move straight into implementation with us, starting with a PoC, pilot, or full delivery, using the workshop outputs as the foundation for execution.
Who should attend from our side?
Usually a mix of business, product, technology, and data leaders. For example: CEO/COO, Head of Product, CTO/VP Engineering, and a data or operations lead.
What if our data or systems are not ready for AI?
That’s exactly what the workshop is designed to uncover. You’ll get a clear, honest view of your readiness gaps across data, systems, and architecture, and what needs to be modernized first to make AI work in practice. Instead of guessing or overinvesting too early, you’ll know precisely where to focus and how to remove the blockers. And if modernization is needed, we can take you from that foundation work straight into AI implementation, using one coherent plan and one delivery team.
Is this suitable for enterprise-scale organizations?
Yes. The workshop is designed to work for complex organizations with multiple stakeholders, legacy systems, governance requirements, and real operational constraints.
What happens after the workshop is finished?
You’ll have a clear plan, a prioritized roadmap, and you can move straight into execution. We can immediately start with a PoC or pilot and scale to full delivery using the roadmap created in the workshop. Because the strategy, scope, and priorities are already defined, you save weeks or months and move from decisions to results faster.
How do we get started?
Start with a short call with our team. We’ll discuss your business context, goals, and constraints, and outline the right format and scope for your AI Strategy Workshop. From there, we’ll propose a clear plan and timeline—so you can move quickly from conversation to action.
