AI Ally
AI clarity, human support.
Your ally in the AI era.
Fractional AI Leadership
Executive-level AI strategy and delivery, embedded in your business 1–2 days per week.
You know AI is critical to your business future. But hiring a Head of AI full-time feels premature or prohibitively expensive. You need senior expertise now, not in six months after a lengthy recruitment process.
That’s where fractional AI leadership comes in: all the strategic direction and execution oversight you need, scaled to match your current stage and budget.
Whether you’re just starting to think about AI or looking to build on early steps, AI Ally helps you navigate the journey with clarity, confidence, and expert support.
What you get
A fractional AI leader is more than a consultant who writes recommendations. We embed directly into your operations by attending leadership meetings, running standups with your teams, making decisions alongside you, and owning outcomes. Think of it as a Head of AI who works for you 1-2 days per week instead of 5.
Strategic direction
We define your AI strategy, build prioritised roadmaps tied to business outcomes, and align stakeholders from the C-suite to delivery teams. You get clarity on where to invest and why.
Hands-on delivery support
We don’t just set strategy, we guide execution. From scoping pilots to reviewing architecture decisions to unblocking teams, we’re in the weeds when it matters.
Governance & risk management
We design frameworks for responsible AI use covering data privacy, model explainability, security, and compliance. Your board gets confidence; your teams get clear guardrails.
Team enablement & coaching
We upskill your internal teams so they build confidence and capability. The goal is independence, not long-term dependency on external support.
Engagement models
We offer two engagement levels to match where you are and what you need. Both include strategic leadership; the difference is in execution depth.
Strategic (1 day/week)
Best for organisations with existing tech capabilities who need senior direction, stakeholder alignment, and strategic prioritisation. We attend key meetings, engage with the team, provide education, guide decisions, and set the strategic course.
✓ Roadmap development and prioritisation
✓ Executive workshops and alignment sessions
✓ Vendor evaluation and tool selection
✓ Governance framework and policy design
✓ Strategic reviews and course corrections
From $5,000/month
Hands-on (2 days/week)
Best for organisations ready to pilot and deliver, needing embedded delivery support. We roll up our sleeves, work alongside your teams, and own execution outcomes together with you.
✓ Everything in Strategic, plus:
✓ Pilot scoping, architecture, and delivery
✓ Hands-on team coaching and mentoring
✓ Weekly stand ups and sprint reviews
✓ Technical unblocking and problem-solving
From $10,000/month
What you’ll achieve
We measure success by tangible outcomes, not hours logged or meetings attended. Here’s what clients typically achieve in their first engagement.
Prioritised AI backlog tied to business KPIs
No more debating which initiatives to pursue. You have a clear roadmap with initiatives ranked by business value, technical feasibility, and strategic alignment—approved by your leadership team.
Governance framework your board will approve
Clear policies on data privacy, model risk, security, and ethics. Your board gets confidence; your teams get guardrails that enable (not block) innovation.
At least one pilot in production within 90 days
Not a proof of concept that sits on a shelf rather a real solution delivering value to real users. It proves momentum, builds confidence, and justifies further investment.
Upskilled internal teams with adoption playbooks
Your people don’t just watch, they do. They gain confidence, build capability, and have the documentation they need to scale independently after the engagement ends.
Let’s talk about what’s worth doing
Not everything needs AI but some things really do.
We’ll help you figure out what’s what.
