Forward Deployed AI Acceleration

We deploy AI-native marketing teams.

Marketing is undergoing a fundamental transformation in how it works. We deploy Forward Deployed AI Accelerators embedded directly with marketing cohorts to make AI the default mode for all work. Not an occasional tool. The foundation of how every marketer executes.

The teams we deploy with are already achieving remarkable results: building their own dashboards, shipping agents that compress multi-day processes, authoring tools that accelerate workflows. We take what works and scale it across the organization.

The crisis

87%

of AI initiatives stall before scaling beyond pilot. Tools land. Adoption stalls. The platform sits unused six months later.

The gap

60%

of marketing teams are AI-aware but not AI-native. They have access to the tools. They lack the operating model.

Time to first deploy

4 weeks

from kickoff to first agent in production. Working prototypes, not roadmaps. Speed is the differentiator.

Output gain at handoff

10×

output capacity at the same team headcount. Same operators. Same budget. Ten times the throughput.

Eighteen months later

90%

retention rate. The transformation is permanent. The model compounds. The leverage stays after we leave.

The model

Three principles that change everything.

Off-the-shelf software cannot run a modern marketing team. The category needs operators who build, embed, and stay long enough for the transformation to compound. Forward Deployed AI Acceleration is a delivery model, not a feature set.

Three things separate it from consulting, implementation services, or generic AI vendors.

01 / Principle

Embedded

Specialists work alongside your team for the duration of the engagement. Shared Slack channels, weekly working sessions, joint roadmaps. Not consulting. Not contracted labour. Embedded.

The method →

02 / Principle

Custom

Off-the-shelf software cannot run your marketing. We build agents and automations against your stack, your data, your workflows. Working prototypes ship in weeks, not quarters.

What we deploy →

03 / Principle

Permanent

The team operates the deployed systems independently before the engagement ends. Self-sufficiency is the deliverable. The transformation stays after we leave.

The outcome →

The method

Four stages from diagnosis to operating capability.

Most AI initiatives fail because they treat technology as the deliverable. Tools land. Adoption stalls. The platform sits unused six months later.

The Forward Deployed model treats operating capability as the deliverable. The right agents, deployed at the right leverage points, with the right team running them. The method is sequenced for that outcome.

01

Stage one

Diagnose

Map the team's current workflows. Identify the highest-leverage automation opportunities. Score by hours saved, throughput gained, and revenue unlocked. Walk away with a prioritized deployment roadmap.

2 weeks · fixed scope

02

Stage two

Build

Deploy custom agents against the prioritized backlog. Working prototypes ship within two weeks. Production-grade systems within eight. Each ship integrates with your stack and your data, not a parallel platform.

6 to 10 weeks

03

Stage three

Train

Embedded working sessions until the team operates the deployed systems independently. Documentation, runbooks, escalation paths. Coaching that transfers the operating model from us to your marketers.

4 to 8 weeks · in parallel with build

04

Stage four

Operate

The team runs. We maintain. Quarterly upgrades, new agent deployments as workflows evolve, model upgrades as the underlying technology improves. The relationship outlasts the engagement.

Ongoing · retainer

What we deploy

Five categories of custom agents.

Every engagement deploys agents across these five categories. The specific agents are built to your workflows, but the categories cover the highest-leverage automation surface in any modern marketing team.

Engagement models

Three tiers, sized to the leverage.

Most clients start with a Diagnostic to scope the deployment. Most stay through Embed because the leverage compounds. Each tier is a clean exit; each one earns the next.

  • Discovery interviews with marketing leadership
  • Workflow mapping and friction-point analysis
  • Prioritized agent and automation backlog
  • Twelve-month deployment roadmap
  • Read-out to executive stakeholders
