# A part-time AI advisor for ongoing decisions, without hiring a full-time AI team

> Too many AI proposals and nobody to judge them? APPSOLN gives you an experienced part-time AI advisor to set priorities, check vendor claims, and keep AI projects on track.

Fractional AI advisory gives you a regular, senior person to help with AI decisions. We help you decide what to do next, check proposals and vendors, keep AI projects tied to real business goals, and keep an eye on risks as you grow.

## Who it fits

- AI ideas keep popping up across teams with nobody owning them.
- You want independent advice on vendors, pilots, and build decisions.
- You have started one AI project and need a plan for what comes next.

## Problems

- AI experiments and vendors spread across teams with no owner
- Slow decisions because everyone has a different opinion
- Projects drifting away from the original business goal
- No regular check on risk, adoption, and results

## Deliverables

- Regular advisory sessions with a set agenda
- A prioritised list of AI initiatives and a decision log
- Help reviewing vendors and proposals
- Guidance on integration, rules, and measurement
- Short status notes for leadership after each session

## Process

- **Agree the role.** Agree who decides what, how often we meet, and what is already underway.
- **Review.** Look at current projects, proposals, risks, and results.
- **Advise.** Recommend next steps, owners, and when to stop something.
- **Follow up.** Keep the priority list, decision log, and actions up to date.

## Client involvement

- A named senior sponsor
- Access to project owners and relevant vendors
- Willingness to pause or stop weak projects
- Shared view of results and open risks

## Success measures

- Fewer AI efforts running without a clear owner
- Faster, better-documented decisions
- Projects tied to business results, not novelty
- An up-to-date view of risks, adoption, and next priorities

## Systems

- Current AI projects
- Vendor proposals
- Business dashboards
- Decision logs

## Security and access

Everything discussed stays confidential. Advice on vendors and data follows the same safety standards we use on our own projects.

## Human control

Your leadership makes the decisions. We recommend priorities, stop points, and safeguards; we do not replace your authority.

## What you leave with

You get a regular decision rhythm, an up-to-date priority list, and clear notes after each session. Build work is scoped separately when an idea is ready.

## Common questions

### Is this unlimited development work?

No. Advisory is decision support. Building something is scoped as a separate project when you are ready.

### How is this different from a one-off workshop?

A workshop gives you a plan once. Advisory keeps giving you judgment as real proposals, pilots, and results come in.

### Who is this for?

Business owners, managing directors, operations leaders, and IT leaders who want ongoing AI advice without hiring a full-time AI team. It works for a small firm and for a department inside a large company.
