A 1:1 Session for Curious Professionals, Leaders, and Builders

Have questions about AI but not sure where to start? This session is a casual, one-on-one space where you can ask anything - no prep needed, no jargon required. Whether you're just starting to explore or already have ideas, we’ll meet you where you are.

Bring your questions, your curiosity, or even your skepticism. We’ll talk things through, make sense of what’s possible, and figure out what matters for you.

If you already have a specific idea or use case in mind, we can focus on sharpening your thinking, stress-testing your approach, or spotting potential blind spots so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

Model Experimentation Plan

Unlock the true power of your AI models with a focused, intentional plan.

Thanks to today’s APIs, writing training code is straightforward - but the real expertise lies in designing the right experiments and interpreting results to optimize performance. Often, the biggest improvements come from refining your data, not just tweaking model parameters. This service reviews your project, datasets, and goals to create a tailored experimentation plan complete with clear success criteria.
