THREE WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

What needs to move forward?

01 / DECIDE

Private Executive Briefing

For agency principals, marketing leaders and Heads of Audio

$4,000

Discuss a briefing

You have a specific AI-music opportunity and need to decide whether—and how—to pursue it

One decision, a reasoned recommendation

  • Focused preparation around one question and up to 3 options
  • 90-minute private session for up to 6 people
  • 8–12-slide presentation, supplied as PDF and editable PPTX
  • 3–5-page Decision Memo in PDF and DOCX: options, evidence, unknowns and next steps
  • One consolidated clarification round, up to 5 questions

Your inputs. Bring your decision, constraints and up to 30 pages or 60 minutes of agreed material

Production, implementation, legal opinions and new vendor diligence are outside this scope

Timing, payment & clarification

100% before preparation begins. Dates are agreed after scope, inputs and delivery availability are confirmed

The memo follows within 2 working days of the session. Send one consolidated clarification round within 5 working days of delivery. Responses within 2 working days. New questions or broader work are scoped separately

02 / PRACTISE

Team Operator Workshop

For studio owners, production leads and audio teams

$7,500

Discuss your team’s workflow

Your team needs a shared way to brief an AI-assisted task, challenge a weak response and hand off an approved revision

A workflow your team can repeat

  • Task and tool review, with a prepared exercise
  • 3 hours of facilitated practice for up to 8 people in 4 pairs, including a break
  • Task brief, workflow map, QA checklist and reusable participant pack in PDF and DOCX
  • One worked example, 4 annotated pair outputs, limitations log and next-test plan
  • One consolidated clarification round, up to 5 questions

Your inputs. Bring one workflow, current tools, participant experience, a permitted sample and a technical contact

This is task briefing, response review and handoff practice for music-production teams. No live DAW automation, integration or audio-production deliverable is included

Timing, payment & clarification

50% to start; 50% due 2 working days before the session. Dates are agreed after scope, inputs and delivery availability are confirmed

Working outputs and annotations follow within 2 working days of the session. Send one consolidated clarification round within 5 working days of delivery. Responses within 2 working days. New questions or broader work are scoped separately

03 / VERIFY

Custom Evidence / Vendor Brief

For innovation leads, Heads of Audio and procurement sponsors

$9,000

Discuss an evidence brief

General market information cannot settle a research or vendor choice against your criteria

Evidence, gaps and a recommendation

  • One question, up to 3 named options and 6 criteria in one deployment context or market
  • Primary-source verification of up to 18 material claims across up to 12 pages
  • Evidence table in CSV and readable PDF, comparative assessment and source log
  • 4–6-page Decision Memo in PDF and DOCX
  • 60-minute readout for up to 8 people; one clarification round, up to 8 comments

Your inputs. Bring your question, shortlist, priorities, intended use and up to 40 pages of agreed material. We first check whether the research base fits

Interviews, hands-on benchmarks, paid datasets, substantial new data collection and legal opinions need separate scope

Timing, payment & clarification

50% before research; 50% within 5 working days of final delivery. Dates are agreed after scope, inputs and delivery availability are confirmed

The research cutoff, delivery date and readout are agreed in the order. Send one consolidated clarification round within 5 working days of delivery. Responses within 3 working days. New questions or broader work are scoped separately
