Start with Cohort

Choose the right place to start.

Cohort begins with a focused four-week engagement. Each starting engagement has a defined scope and outcome, with a standard investment of $15,000. We confirm fit, sponsorship, and scope before the engagement begins.

Defined scope. Defined outcome. No open-ended consulting meter.

Three starting engagements.

Cohort primarily serves growing and lower-middle-market organizations, with selected larger organizations engaging us around discrete, executive-sponsored AI, cloud, and application priorities.

Recommended starting point

Everyday AI Productivity Pilot

Start with the people now

Put approved AI into the everyday work of one team, measure where it creates value, and establish the foundation for broader adoption.

Choose this when

  • Employees are already experimenting with AI
  • Leadership wants practical productivity gains
  • One team can participate in a structured pilot
  • The organization needs to learn before funding broader adoption
  • A business leader will sponsor the work

Investment: $15,000 fixed fee · Duration: 4 weeks

Option 2

AI Discovery & Assessment

Define the solution now

Identify where cloud cost, legacy architecture, security, data, or application constraints are blocking business and AI priorities.

Choose this when

  • Cloud costs are increasing without corresponding business value
  • Legacy applications are slowing operational or AI initiatives
  • Security, governance, or technical debt is creating risk
  • Leadership needs to know what to modernize, build, or leave alone
  • A CIO, CTO, IT leader, or executive sponsor will participate

Investment: $15,000 fixed fee · Duration: 4 weeks

Option 3

AI Strategy Sprint

Take a beat, build the strategy

Align leadership on the highest-value AI opportunities and establish a prioritized roadmap for investment and execution.

Choose this when

  • Leadership agrees AI matters but has not aligned on priorities
  • Business functions are competing for investment
  • The organization needs a business roadmap before funding execution
  • Governance and sequencing decisions remain unresolved
  • Executives who own the budget and workflows will participate

Investment: $15,000 fixed fee · Duration: 4 weeks

Have a defined solution opportunity? Cohort scopes solution-development work separately after understanding the business, data, integration, and operating context. Discuss a solution opportunity →

At the end of the engagement, the findings, measurements, and recommendations are yours. Continue with Cohort, proceed with another provider, or pause: the decision remains yours.

The honest boundary

Cohort may not be the right fit if

  • You are looking only for individual contractors or staff augmentation
  • There is no executive sponsor for the work
  • There is no budget for a $15,000 starting engagement
  • You want an open-ended transformation program without a defined business outcome
  • You are seeking commodity engineering capacity
