I will map ai opportunities and deliver a prototype
About this Gig
Most AI projects ship working demos and break in production: hallucinations, infinite loops, silent failures, runaway costs, eval-less rollouts. This 14-day sprint surfaces your top AI opportunities and prototypes the highest-leverage one with eval harness and failure-mode catalog. You leave with strategy AND working code.
WHAT YOU GET
- 3 to 8 stakeholder interviews (U-Shaped Method)
- Priority Matrix: impact, feasibility, AND failure-mode risk
- 30/60/90-day implementation roadmap
- Working prototype of your top opportunity (Claude Code, sandboxed)
- Eval harness + failure-mode catalog
- 7-slide executive deck with live demo
- Handover doc your team can execute without me
WHO THIS IS FOR
- Software teams worried about AI prod failures
- Consultancies blindsided by AI edge cases
- Founders who burned budget on demos that never shipped
WHY ME
- 20+ years enterprise IT (banking, gov, retail, telco)
- Reliability-first: idempotency, evals, escalation gates
- Build and run a multi-agent autonomous EA on Claude Code today
NOT INCLUDED: production deployment, ongoing ops, integration beyond the sandboxed prototype.

FAQ
Q1: What does a 14-day sprint actually look like, day-to-day?
Days 1-2: kickoff + executive interviews. Days 3-7: frontline interviews + synthesis. Days 8-10: Priority Matrix scoring + prototype target selection. Days 11-13: prototype build with eval harness. Day 14: 7-slide exec deck with live demo. Detailed schedule confirmed at kickoff.
Q2: How many stakeholders need to be available for interviews?
3 to 8 people for orgs under 50 employees, more for larger teams. Each interview is 45 to 60 min. U-Shaped Method (execs first, frontline middle, execs last) is core. Without stakeholder access the sprint can't deliver real value. I send a scheduling guide after purchase.
Q3: What is "failure-mode risk scoring" and why does it matter?
Most AI projects break in prod: hallucinations, infinite loops, silent failures, runaway costs. I add a third axis to the Priority Matrix: failure-mode risk. How catastrophic? How detectable? How recoverable? Prototype ships with an eval harness and failure-mode catalog.
Q4: What AI stacks do you cover?
Primary stack is Claude (Anthropic) and Claude Code, where I build and run my own autonomous systems with eval harnesses, failure-mode catalogs, and escalation gates. Strategic recommendations are tool-agnostic: OpenAI, Google, open-source, the right tool depends on your needs.
Q5: Will you implement what you recommend after the sprint?
Implementation is a separate engagement. Message me after delivery to scope it. Typical paths: focused build (top 1-2 prototypes to production), comprehensive build, or full transformation. The handover doc is detailed enough that your in-house team can execute without me.
Q6: What if I want a smaller scope (strategy only, no prototype)?
Message me before booking. A strategy-only sprint (no prototype, no eval harness) is a separate, smaller engagement priced and scoped accordingly. Not a discount on this gig. This gig is the full 14-day sprint with prototype, which is what justifies the price.
