AI Discovery, Strategy & Roadmap

AI discovery workshop

Discover where AI fits in your business through a focused, one-day strategy session for business leaders, technology teams, and C-suite stakeholders. We identify high-impact opportunities, assess readiness, and define a practical roadmap for adoption, implementation, and measurable ROI.

Best for: Teams that want clarity before investing in AI development.

AI Discovery, Strategy & Roadmap

AI strategy and readiness assessment

Evaluate your organization’s data maturity, workflows, infrastructure, governance, and internal capabilities through an AI maturity assessment. We identify what is ready, what needs improvement, and what could block successful AI adoption.

Best for: Businesses that have AI ideas but are unsure whether their data, systems, or teams are ready to support them.

AI Discovery, Strategy & Roadmap

Workflow and use-case discovery

Map business workflows to identify where AI can reduce manual work, improve decisions, increase speed, or remove operational bottlenecks. We uncover practical AI use cases across teams, systems, and processes, then connect each opportunity to a clear business objective and ROI path.

Best for: Teams that know they want to use AI but do not know which workflows or use cases should come first.

AI Discovery, Strategy & Roadmap

ROI modeling and use-case prioritization

Prioritize AI opportunities based on business value, feasibility, implementation effort, data availability, and risk. This helps your team focus on the use cases most likely to deliver measurable outcomes instead of chasing disconnected experiments.

Best for: Leaders who need a business case before approving AI investment.

AI Discovery, Strategy & Roadmap

AI roadmap development

Create a phased execution roadmap that defines what to build first, what dependencies need to be addressed, and how your team should move from discovery to pilot, MVP, and scale. The roadmap includes timelines, ownership, technical requirements, success metrics, change management needs, an AI adoption framework, and recommended next steps.

Best for: Businesses that need a practical AI execution plan aligned across business, technology, and operations.

AI Discovery, Strategy & Roadmap

Governance and responsible AI advisory

Plan AI adoption with the right guardrails from the start. We help define governance practices aligned with frameworks such as NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, and the EU AI Act, covering risk, access, oversight, compliance, and responsible use.

Best for: Teams that want to scale AI without creating security, compliance, or operational risk.

AI Discovery, Strategy & Roadmap

Pilot and proof-of-value planning

Turn your roadmap into a focused pilot plan with clear scope, success metrics, architecture, data requirements, and validation criteria. We help you define what needs to be proven before wider rollout, so your pilot is tied to measurable business value.

Best for: Teams ready to validate one AI use case before committing to a larger implementation.

AI Discovery, Strategy & Roadmap

AI Pod

Move from roadmap to production with a focused AI delivery team built around one use case, one KPI, and one fixed price. Deployed’s AI Pod combines AI architects, engineers, and product designers to build, test, launch, and hand off production-ready AI systems in weeks, not months.

Best for: Businesses that want a focused team to build, launch, and hand off a working AI solution.

Our approach: from AI discovery to production-ready delivery

01

01 Discover and plan

AI discovery workshop

We start with a focused AI workshop to understand your business goals, current workflows, data environment, AI maturity, and existing experiments. Together, we identify high-impact opportunities, assess readiness, and define where AI can create measurable business value.

Duration: 1 day

Deliverables: AI readiness snapshot | Use-case map | Priority opportunities | Recommended next steps

AI roadmap planning

We turn the strongest opportunities into a practical execution roadmap. This includes ROI estimates, feasibility checks, data and integration requirements, governance considerations, ownership, timelines, and the recommended path to pilot, MVP, or AI Pod delivery.

Duration: Up to 3 weeks

Deliverables: Prioritized roadmap | ROI model | Solution blueprint | Delivery plan

02 Build and validate

AI proof of value

Validate the selected AI use case through a focused build, such as a workflow automation agent. We define KPIs before build begins, test the solution against real workflow conditions, and confirm whether the use case is ready for production.

Duration: 3 to 5 weeks

Deliverables: Working proof of value | KPI baseline | Performance metrics | Risk and compliance checks | Go/no-go recommendation

Production AI MVP

Launch the first version of the AI system with the controls needed for real users, real data, and real workflows. This includes authentication, logging, monitoring, integrations, human-in-the-loop review, and adoption support, so the MVP is not just a demo but a controlled production release.

Duration: 6 to 10 weeks

03 Expand and scale

Once the first AI use case proves measurable value, we expand it across more workflows, teams, or business units. Deployed helps standardize the delivery pattern, strengthen governance, improve adoption, and track performance so AI does not remain a one-off pilot.

Duration: 90 days onwards

Frequently asked questions

What is included in the AI discovery workshop?

The AI discovery workshop is a focused, one-day session where Deployed works with your business and technology teams to understand your goals, workflows, data environment, AI maturity, and current experiments. You leave with an AI readiness snapshot, use-case map, priority opportunities, and recommended next steps.

Can we really build an AI roadmap in 1 day?

The 1-day workshop gives you a clear starting roadmap with priority use cases, readiness gaps, and recommended next steps. For deeper ROI modeling, solution architecture, governance planning, and delivery sequencing, Deployed can extend this into a roadmap planning engagement of up to 3 weeks.

Who should attend the workshop?

The workshop is designed for business, technology, product, operations, data, and innovation leaders involved in AI decision-making. It is especially useful for teams that already have AI ideas, pilots, or internal requests but need clarity on what to build next.

How do you prioritize AI use cases?

We evaluate each use case based on business value, feasibility, data availability, implementation effort, risk, governance needs, and expected ROI. This helps your team focus on opportunities that are practical to build and likely to create measurable impact.

Do we need mature data before starting?

No. You do not need perfect data to begin. Part of the workshop is identifying which data is usable today, where gaps exist, and what needs to be improved before AI can move into proof of value, MVP, or production.

What happens after the roadmap is created?

After the roadmap, Deployed can help you move into proof of value, production AI MVP, or AI Pod delivery. This means the selected use case can be built, tested, launched, and handed off with clear KPIs, integrations, monitoring, governance, and adoption support.

How does AI Pod fit into this service?

AI Pod is the delivery path after discovery and roadmap planning. It gives you a focused team of AI architects, engineers, designers, and specialists to build, launch, and hand off one working AI solution around a defined use case, KPI, and fixed price.

Can Deployed help with Agentic AI use cases?

Yes. Deployed helps identify and build agentic AI use cases such as workflow automation agents, knowledge agents, compliance monitoring workflows, customer support agents, agentic QA systems, incident response agents, and operations-focused AI systems that coordinate tasks across business tools.
