AI adoption for expertise-heavy businesses
Your team's best hours are being wasted on their worst tasks.
We find the workflows draining your team's time, build practical AI tools around the work they already do, and train your people to use them well.

Who this is for
We work best with businesses where AI will actually pay back
We do our best work if…
- You run a professional services, consulting, or expertise-heavy organisation - usually rolling AI out across teams
- Your team spends real hours every week on proposals, research, summaries, intake, or drafting work
- You want practical outcomes in weeks - not an AI strategy deck that gathers dust
- You're ready to invest in your team learning new ways of working - not just buying software and hoping for the best
We’re likely not a fit if…
- Your main goal is reducing headcount. The work AI does best in our engagements is the work nobody enjoyed doing in the first place. Nobody gets laid off because we made their boring tasks faster.
- You need enterprise ML engineering or cloud infrastructure - we work at the adoption layer, not the plumbing
- Your primary decision is the lowest quote - our pricing reflects the value of the outcome, not the number of hours
- You expect AI to do your team's thinking for them - we build tools that free up time for the thinking only they can do

Three ways we work
AI Adoption Partnership
Most clients start with a first engagement and move to an annual partnership once the work is in place.
Structured AI training for teams and individuals.
Co-Builder
A one-time session, not the start of a partnership. For individual experts - consultants, coaches, advisors.
Bring the task; leave with the tool. We scope it on a free Focus Call.

Building an AI Knowledge Base That Actually Works
Your AI Knowledge Base Is Only as Good as What You Feed It
What they say about us
IRDG commissioned Alastair from HumanSpark.ai to deliver our 'AI Transformation for Business Leaders' programme for senior leaders across our member companies, many of them in regulated sectors like pharma, medtech and manufacturing.
Both cohorts were strongly subscribed - the first sold out almost immediately - and the participant feedback was exceptional. Alastair cuts through the AI hype and keeps the focus on practical, operational value that leaders can apply straight away, in language that respects how experienced the room is.
I'd recommend him without hesitation to any organisation that wants its people moving from curiosity about AI to real results.

Overall I felt I was being educated gently, without being patronised, by a trustworthy speaker.
