Working software in two weeks.
Most AI ideas stall somewhere between the slide and the shipped thing. The Build Sprint closes that gap, so the call on a full build gets made against something real instead of an estimate. Two weeks in, not two quarters.
The AI Build Sprint.
Two weeks. One problem worth solving. A working prototype your team can click, break, and judge. Fixed scope, fixed price, agreed before we start.
Frame the problem, map your data, ship the first working slice.
Harden it, wire it to your stack, demo it with your team.
The prototype, the code, and an honest read on what a full build takes.
The operating rhythm behind the sprint.
Two weeks works because the sprint is not open-ended discovery. We turn the problem into a written contract, slice it into buildable stories, and check every slice before it reaches you.
Written contract.
We write the problem, the scope, the non-goals, and the acceptance criteria before the build starts. Nothing important lives only in a call or a chat thread.
Clickable before coded.
You see the workflow as a clickable screen before code decisions harden. Changes are cheap at that point and expensive once implementation starts.
One slice at a time.
The build is split into thin vertical slices. User path, logic, data, and tests move together, so there is no backend-only progress to report.
Checked before you see it.
Every slice is checked against the acceptance criteria, the tests, the UI behaviour, and the risk. Anything unclear stops with a written reason rather than a guess.
One idea, ready to test.
The sprint works when there is a single opportunity worth proving. If you are still choosing between five of them, say so on the call and we will help you pick one.
Founders with an idea
You have one AI product idea worth testing and you need a working first slice before you raise, hire, or commit a year to it.
Product teams with a workflow
Something in the business is worth automating, but nobody agrees on what to build first or whether AI is the right tool for it.
Operators inside the tools
You want AI working inside the systems your team already uses every day, not sitting beside them in a separate app.
The usual ways AI stalls.
Most AI work dies in one of four places. The sprint is shaped to walk past all of them.
No six month discovery.
You get working software in two weeks. Anything that cannot be decided in that window was not the real question.
No demo that stalls.
The prototype is built the way production is built, so the path from here to live is a shorter version of the same road.
No handoff you cannot run.
You keep the code and the reasoning behind it. Your team can pick it up without us in the room.
No tooling picked first.
We choose models, frameworks, and vendors after the business problem is clear, never before.
Three things, whatever you decide.
Nothing here is held back to sell you the next phase. You leave with all of it.
Something to click.
A working slice your team can use, break, and argue about. Not a slide about what it would do.
The repository.
Yours from day one. Readable, documented, and built to be extended rather than thrown away.
An honest read.
What a full build takes, what it costs, and whether the problem deserves one. Including when the answer is no.
The two weeks, step by step.
Six steps, each with something you can see at the end of it. Nothing is held back for a reveal at the finish.
Scope.
Pick one business problem, name the non-goals, and agree what the prototype has to prove.
Prototype.
Turn the workflow into clickable screens so your team can react before code hardens.
Plan.
Break the prototype into buildable stories, each with acceptance criteria and a test path.
Build.
Implement the smallest working slice, wired to realistic data and systems where we can.
Gate.
Checks, QA, and review. Anything risky or unclear is written down, never quietly dropped.
Decide.
Demo the prototype, hand over the code, and give the honest recommendation. Build, revise, or stop.
