Step 2 of 3 · Pilot Projects & AI Delivery

Ship in weeks, not months.

Working AI pilots in 4 to 6 weeks that prove ROI in your own systems (Microsoft 365, ERP, CRM) before you scale. Fixed price, no lock-in, hosted in the EU.

How it works · 5 steps
  1. 01

    Scope & goal definition

    A tight scope with a concrete business goal: time saved, quality improved, or throughput lifted. Dataset, interfaces, ownership, and acceptance criteria defined before a line is written.

  2. 02

    Architecture & model selection

    Right stack for the job: document AI, agents, chatbots, or automation pipelines. Model choice (GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini, Llama) based on task, data sensitivity, and budget.

  3. 03

    Build & integrate

    Working prototype connected to your real systems, CRM, ERP, M365, or custom APIs. Not an isolated demo, not synthetic data.

  4. 04

    Test & validate

    Structured testing against real data and the acceptance criteria from step 1. Edge cases, failure modes, and latency documented before go-live.

  5. 05

    Deploy & hand over

    Go-live with monitoring, documentation, and team enablement included. The pilot is a foundation, not a dead end.

What you get.

Working pilot system

A real, deployed system with measurable output. Not a demo, something your team can operate from day one.

KPI baseline + measurement

Defined success metrics and a baseline measurement so you know exactly what improved.

Integration specification

Clean interface definitions for CRM, ERP, or M365 integration, ready for the next phase.

Scale-up plan

If the pilot passes, a costed plan to take it to production, with governance, monitoring, and support included.

Questions,
straight.

Common questions about Pilot Projects. If yours is missing, ask us in the call.

How long does a pilot take?
4-6 weeks from agreed scope to working pilot, depending on integration complexity. Complex integrations or limited data access add time, we surface that in the scoping call, not mid-delivery.
What do we need to provide?
Access to relevant data, at least one process owner, and 2-3 stakeholder hours for alignment. We bring the rest.
Can you integrate with our existing systems?
Yes. CRM, ERP, M365, and custom APIs are standard territory. We scope integrations during discovery and treat them as first-class delivery items, not afterthoughts.
What happens after the pilot?
You own the code and the documentation. We provide a handover pack with deployment notes, monitoring setup, and a clear path to scale if the pilot validates.
What if the pilot doesn't work?
We surface blockers early. If data isn't ready or scope is unrealistic, we tell you in week 1, not week 6.
What does it cost?
Fixed price, scoped before we start. No retainers, no open-ended sprints. We discuss ranges in the first call.
