Dani Forword · AI strategy & adoption
For teams whose AI has stalled.
Let's get it moving
Been planning AI for months with nothing to show for it?
I'm the person who keeps it moving. As a partner in residence, I work alongside your team to get from good intentions to tools people actually use.
A precision team for AI that's stalled.
I come in, find the few small wins that actually matter, ship them fast, and prove they worked with real numbers.
I can work alongside your AI agency to keep things moving, or bring my own engineer for a targeted build.
Then I stay on as your fractional AI lead until someone inside can own it.
Where it could help
Proposals & decks
Concepts and pitch decks drafted faster, on brand.
Your past work, on tap
Search your own archive, suppliers, and past projects by theme, client, or season.
Plans & run-sheets
A brief turned into production checklists and timelines.
Staffing & resourcing
Plans built from the actual scope, not instinct.
Supplier & invoice admin
Invoices matched and chased without the inbox spiral.
Briefs & recaps
Client intake up front, polished recaps after.
Three ways to work together.
Start small, keep going if it helps.
No tool demos, no jargon. Just more time for the clients and the moments you're actually good at.
01 · Half day
The session
For a retreat or team day. No laptops. We map how the work really moves, decide what's craft to protect and what's admin to lighten, and spot the opportunities together.
You leave with a short readout, quick wins, and a first pilot.
02 · 2 to 4 weeks
The roadmap
Deep dives with sales, design, production, and ops to find where the hours go, from first proposal to final delivery.
You leave with a prioritised plan, the right tools, and a realistic timeline.
03 · 4 to 8 weeks
The pilot
A small group tries the first idea on real work. I stay for the training and the awkward first weeks, so it actually sticks.
You leave with time saved, measured, and a team that wants to keep going.
Also on offer
Workshops
Hands-on sessions for your team, built around your real work rather than generic demos.
Partner in residence
A standing seat at the table for a season. I'm in the room when decisions get made, not just when things break.
Fractional AI lead
The ongoing version. I own the AI agenda until someone inside is ready to, then I hand it over properly.
Straight answers
Who is this for?
Teams that have been planning AI for months with nothing to show for it. Usually there's a pilot that never shipped, a tool nobody opens, or a deck that's gone around twice. I come in and get it moving.
Do you replace our AI agency?
No. I can work alongside your agency to keep things moving, or bring my own engineer for a targeted build. The point is momentum, not a changing of the guard.
Where do we start?
With the session: half a day, no laptops. We map how the work really moves and spot the small wins that actually matter. If it helps, the roadmap and the pilot follow. Start small, keep going if it works.
How do we know it worked?
Real numbers. Time saved, measured, on work you actually do, with a team that wants to keep going. If it didn't move anything, I'll say so.
What happens after the pilot?
I stay on as your fractional AI lead until someone inside can own it, then I hand it over properly. The goal is for you not to need me.
Let's talk.
A short message is plenty. Tell me what's stalled and roughly how big the team is, and I'll come back with a straight answer on whether I can help.
