Find the AI work worth doing first.
Your team may already be experimenting. A planning sprint makes the next step deliberate: we look at the repeated work, the information it touches and who signs it off, then weigh AI against simpler fixes.
For owner-led businesses and small teams with repeated admin work, some informal AI use and no clear plan for what to try.
$2,500 · two weeks
Covers one team or one area of the business. The plan is yours to keep, and it is credited against a pilot if we start within 60 days.
What you get
- A map of the recurring tasks and handoffs your team actually does.
- A record of the data, access and approvals each task involves.
- A ranked shortlist of ideas, including which ones to leave alone and why.
- A recommendation for one pilot, or for a simpler change to the process.
How it works
-
Look at the work
We trace the inputs, systems and exceptions, and who decides what.
-
Test ideas on paper
Each idea is weighed against your tools, permissions, data sensitivity and the cost of getting it wrong.
-
Choose the next step
We agree what to try, what not to, and how a pilot would be judged before anything is built.
Where it stops
- A plan is not a build, and it does not promise savings. A pilot gets its own scope and price.
- A person stays responsible for any decision with real consequences.
- The sprint’s scope is agreed in writing before it starts.

Ophio is my own project for supervising AI work from a phone. The case study covers the decisions about what a person sees, approves and can stop, and what still needs work. It is in development, not a client deployment.
