The process is the same as for larger companies: first understand, then evaluate, then prioritize. The difference lies in the pace. Startups and scale-ups don't need a strategy that takes six months to mature. They need concrete results in weeks, not quarters.

PLAN D starts with stakeholder interviews across the organization to capture operational bottlenecks, existing data, and initial AI ideas. In an AI Ideation Workshop, these ideas are collaboratively developed, evaluated along concrete dimensions, and translated into a prioritized roadmap.

The result is an AI roadmap — a strategic document that shows not only where AI creates value, but also where it doesn't.
