Here's What Actually Happens When Most Companies "Do AI"

Month 1: Excitement. "We're going to transform everything!"

Month 3: Confusion. "Wait, what problem are we solving again?"

Month 6: Disappointment. "We spent $80K and all we got was a chatbot that hallucinates."

Month 12: Resignation. "Maybe AI just isn't for us."

Except AI is for you. The implementation approach wasn't.

The problem isn't the technology. It's that nobody taught you how to:

  • Turn messy data into decision-making fuel
  • Redesign workflows so AI actually fits
  • Train your team to work with AI instead of fearing it
  • Calculate real ROI (not vendor promises)
  • Build the infrastructure that compounds over time

So you end up with scattered pilots, frustrated teams, and a board asking: "What did we pay for, exactly?"

We built this program to fix that.

What This Program Actually Is

Most AI programs teach you about AI. Theory. Concepts. "Here's what's possible."

We're not doing that.

This is a 12-month intensive to architect the decision-making infrastructure of your company.

You're not learning to prompt ChatGPT. You're building:

  • Data governance so you can trust what you're looking at
  • Process automation so manual chaos stops bleeding profit
  • Predictive systems so you know what's coming, not just what happened
  • Workforce strategy so your team evolves with AI instead of resisting it
  • Statistical rigor so your decisions are evidence-based, not gut-based

By the end, you don't have "AI awareness." You have operational systems that run whether you're in the room or not.

That's the difference.

Here's what we're not:

  • Marketing consultants who discovered AI last year
  • Academics teaching theory with zero implementation experience
  • Agencies selling you $500K projects disguised as "strategy"

Here's what we are:

  • Engineers and data scientists who've built AI systems that actually work
  • People who've made every mistake so you don't have to
  • Implementers who care about ROI, not impressive demos

This program is what we wish existed when we were in your shoes.

We got tired of watching companies waste money on AI theater. So we built the roadmap we would've paid $50K for.

And yeah, we're charging $50,000 for it. Because it works.

What You Actually Get

Executable Templates & Frameworks

Not PDFs you'll never open. Real tools you customize and deploy immediately:

  • Self-assessment rubrics and audit tools
  • Communication scripts for every stakeholder (team, board, customers)
  • Role redesign frameworks that evolve jobs without layoffs
  • ROI calculators specific to your industry
  • Vendor evaluation scorecards
  • Hiring playbooks with job descriptions and interview questions
  • Experimentation tracking systems
  • Governance policy templates

12 Pre-Recorded Modules (60-90 min each, broken into 15-min segments)

  • Watch on your schedule. Rewatch as needed. No "you had to be there" nonsense.

Weekly Group Office Hours (Led by experienced pros, not junior staff)

  • Specialized tracks: Data Foundations, Architecture, Analytics, Scale & Culture, Industry-Specific
  • Small groups (50-100 max). Real Q&A. Hot-seat coaching.

Quarterly Founder Masterclasses

  • Deep-dives on: Statistical mistakes SMBs make, architecting for scale, the future of AI-Ops
  • Charter members only. (After 500, this perk disappears.)

Private Community (Small Cohorts + alumni network)

  • Industry vertical groups (e-commerce, SaaS, healthcare, etc.)
  • Peer advisory pods (8-10 leaders, monthly accountability)
  • Template exchange (share your customized versions, steal the best ideas)

6 Months of Navigator Enterprise (Worth $12,000)

  • Daily insights delivered to your inbox (no dashboards, no learning curve)
  • Group onboarding sessions (we get you up and running fast)

Why This Is Worth $50,000 (Honest Answer)

What it costs to figure this out yourself:

Option Cost Timeline Success Rate
Hire a Lead Data Scientist$200K/year6-12 months to hire50% chance they fit
Hire a Fractional CTO$15K-20K/month6 months minimumDepends on who you find
Agency "AI Strategy"$50K-150K3-6 months30% deliver real ROI
Trial and error$80K+ (wasted tools/pilots)12-24 months20% figure it out
This program$50,00012 monthsYou get the playbook upfront

This isn't a cost. It's a down payment on not wasting six figures guessing.

Why the Charter Price Matters

Price of a Consultant: $100,000

Charter price: $50,000 (75% off). You pay by the quarter.

Cancel with a full refund in the first month of any quarter—no long-term lock-in.

Charter benefits you get:

  • Lifetime access to all future modules and updates (normally $5K/year renewal)
  • 6 months free Navigator Enterprise (worth $12K)
  • Exclusive Founder Access – quarterly live sessions with Christina & Hui (ends after Charter cohorts)
  • Founding Member Badge – recognition in case studies, priority for speaking opportunities
  • Template Co-Creation – input on future frameworks (help us build what you need)

After 2026:

  • Price goes up

Charter members get the best deal, the tightest community, and the most access.

After that, it doubles. And the perks disappear.

Who This Is For (And Who It's Not For)

This is for you if:

  • You're a CEO, COO, or VP leading AI adoption (or being asked to)
  • You have a team of 10-200 people (small enough to move fast, big enough that AI matters)
  • You've tried AI pilots and they were... fine, but not transformative
  • You're tired of vendors selling solutions that don't fit
  • You want systems that work when you're not in the room
  • You're willing to commit 12 months to building real infrastructure

This is NOT for you if:

  • You want someone to "do AI for you" (we don't offer implementation services)
  • You're looking for quick hacks (this is infrastructure work, not shortcuts)
  • You just want to learn about AI (go watch YouTube. It's free.)
  • You're not ready to invest in your team (AI without people strategy fails)
  • You're expecting magic (we deal in math, not miracles)

The Honest Question We Get Asked

"Can't I just figure this out on my own?"

Yes. Absolutely.

It'll take 12-24 months. You'll waste $50K-100K on tools and pilots that don't work. You'll frustrate your team with false starts. And you'll maybe get to the same place.

Or you can get the roadmap now. Built by people who've already made every mistake.

Your call.

Why We're Different (The Part Everyone Skips)

We don't sell implementation services.
Our only incentive is: does this work for you? No upsells. No "phase 2" proposals.

We've actually done this work.
Over a decade. Multiple industries. Real budgets. Real timelines. Real failures we learned from.

We start with your business, not the technology.
The coolest AI usually delivers the least ROI. The boring, obvious stuff? That's where the money is.

We don't do theory.
If it doesn't move the needle, we don't teach it.

Your peers are your teachers.
You learn alongside leaders facing your exact problems. Not generic "best practices."

The Honest Truth

AI implementation is hard.

Not because the technology is complicated (it's getting easier every day).

But because changing how your company makes decisions is hard.

It requires:

  • Fixing your data (which nobody wants to do)
  • Redesigning workflows (which means admitting current ones are broken)
  • Training your team (which takes time)
  • Measuring what matters (which means killing vanity metrics)
  • Building systems (which is slower than buying tools)

Most AI programs skip all of that. They teach you to prompt. They show you demos. They make it sound easy.

We don't.

We give you the unsexy, operational, infrastructure work that actually transforms companies.

It's not fast. It's not glamorous. But it compounds.

And in 12 months, when your competitors are still "exploring AI," you'll have systems that run on intelligence instead of guesswork.

That's the difference.

What Happens If You Don't Do This

Scenario 1: You keep guessing.

  • You'll try tools. Some will work. Most won't.
  • You'll waste time. You'll frustrate your team.
  • In 2 years, you'll be further behind.

Scenario 2: You hire someone to figure it out.

  • You'll pay $200K+ for a data scientist or CTO.
  • It'll take them 6-12 months to learn your business.
  • Maybe they figure it out. Maybe they don't.

Scenario 3: You hire an agency.

  • They'll sell you a $150K implementation.
  • It'll be over-engineered. It won't fit your workflows.
  • You'll have an expensive tool nobody uses.

Scenario 4: You do this program.

  • You get the roadmap now.
  • You build systems that fit your business.
  • You don't waste time or money guessing.

FAQ (The Questions Everyone Asks)

"Is this just another online course?"

No. Courses are passive. This is operational. You're building systems.

"Do I need to be technical?"

No. If you can use Excel and sit through a Zoom call, you're fine. We teach the concepts you need.

"What if I don't have time?"

This is a 12-month program. Broken into 4 quarters. Most people spend 5-7 hours/week. If you can't commit that, don't join.

"Will this work for my industry?"

We've worked with e-commerce, SaaS, healthcare, professional services, manufacturing. The frameworks adapt.

"What if I'm not ready for Navigator?"

That's fine. The 6-month trial is optional. The program stands on its own.

"Can I get a refund?"

We bill by the quarter. You can cancel with a full refund in the first month of any quarter. After the first month of a quarter, no refunds for that quarter.

"What happens after the 12 months?"

You join the alumni network. You keep access to all content. You can attend future masterclasses (Charter perk). You keep building.
