Who is it for?

For companies that are already experimenting with AI – or feel the pressure to do so – but don't have anyone with the authority, judgment and time to lead it. Hiring a full-time CAIO is unfeasible due to cost and talent shortages.

Problem it solves

AI is already inside your company; what is missing is someone to lead it:

• Scattered pilots who never climb or translate into results.
• Each area uses tools on its own, with company data and without control (shadow AI).
• Dozens of possible use cases and no criteria to decide where to invest.
• The board asks about 'the AI plan' and no one can present it with solvency.

Solution

An experienced AI manager, 1–2 days per week: defines the vision and roadmap, establishes governance and policies, prioritizes initiatives for business impact, leads teams and suppliers, and reports to your steering committee. The fastest-growing executive role in 2026, in a way SMEs can take on.

Expected results

• AI governance operational in 90 days: policies, inventory, and committee functioning.
• Prioritized portfolio of initiatives with business case and ROI reported every quarter.
• Ongoing compliance with the AI Act (risk classification, literacy).
• The same executive level as a staff CAIO (120,000 €/year), for a fraction of the cost.
