Choose the AI feature worth building before you spend on it

Fixed-price AI opportunity sprint

Uplift is a fixed-price sprint that turns "we need AI in the product" into a decision. In three to four weeks we review your product, map and score the AI opportunities, prototype the strongest one, and give you a roadmap your leadership can back.

Sound familiar?

Competitors are shipping AI features.

The ones that land were chosen carefully. The ones that weren't quietly use up a year of budget and a team's goodwill.

  • Every team has a different AI idea, and they all want to go first.

  • The board wants an AI roadmap before the next budget round.

  • A competitor has shipped an AI feature in your category.

  • The ideas on the table aren't tied to a real user problem.

  • Nobody has checked whether you have the data to make them work.

The cost of doing nothing

Most AI pilots never reach customers

The usual reason isn't the technology. It's choosing the wrong thing to build, or not measuring it.

Uplift scores every idea on value, effort, risk and data readiness before anyone writes production code, and agrees how success will be measured.

See what you get

What you get

  1. Product and UX review, including where users struggle today

  2. AI opportunity map across your product and the processes behind it

  3. Each opportunity scored on value, effort and risk

  4. A recommended first build, with a prototype or clickable concept

  5. A sequenced roadmap and a leadership presentation

How it works

From a long list to the one worth building

We gather the evidence, score every idea and agree how success will be measured before anyone builds.

  1. Discovery

    Interviews, analytics and product walkthrough.

  2. Opportunity workshop

  3. Scoring and concept for the first build

  4. Roadmap and playback

What we need from you

  • Access to the product, analytics and any existing research.
  • Four to six short interviews with product, support and sales.
  • Product and leadership time for the opportunity workshop and the playback.

After the sprint

What you can decide afterwards

Every idea comes out with a clear next step and the reason for it.

  • Build first

    The opportunity with the best balance of user value, effort and risk, with a prototype to prove it.

  • Build later

    Worth doing, once the first one has shipped or the data is ready.

  • Fix first

    Blocked by data, governance or product basics. What needs sorting before AI helps.

  • Drop

    Doesn't solve a real user problem, or the risk outweighs the value.

Scope and price

A fixed price, credited against what comes next

One price for the sprint, credited against any follow-on work if you go ahead within 60 days.

What's included

One product or platform, its main user journeys, and the operational processes behind it.

Assumptions

  • Access and interviews are in place by the end of week one.
  • The prototype is a concept to test the idea, not production software.
  • Building the feature is quoted separately, with the fee credited if you go ahead within 60 days.

What's not included

Building the features (quoted separately, usually as a project).

Fee credit

Sign any follow-on work with us within 60 days of the playback and the full fee is credited against it. Third-party costs aren't included.

What affects the price

The number of products, user types and markets, and whether you want user testing on the prototype.

How we work it out

  • We start from where users struggle today, from analytics, support tickets and interviews.
  • We score each opportunity on value, effort, risk and data readiness, using the same criteria every time.
  • We check each one against our ISO 42001 risk assessment before it reaches the shortlist.
  • We prototype the winner, so the decision is based on something you can see.

Run under our ISO 42001 certified AI management system. We build with Anthropic's Claude, and we're model-agnostic where it matters.

Questions

The things people usually ask

Plain answers on how Uplift works, what it costs and what we need from you. Anything else, just ask.

We already have a list of AI ideas.

Good. Bring it. The sprint tests those ideas against user value, effort, risk and data, and usually adds a few you hadn't considered.

A prototype isn't production software.

Correct. It's there to test the idea cheaply before you commit a team to it.

Couldn't our own product team do this?

Often they could. We're most useful when priorities clash, or when you need specialist AI assessment your team doesn't have yet.

Why not just start building?

Because building first commits the budget before the use case, the controls and the success measure are agreed.

Which AI models do you use?

Whatever fits the job. We build with Anthropic's Claude a lot, and we're model-agnostic where it matters.
