AI&U Canvas -
Your AI Strategy Blueprint
AI&U Canvas captures on one page the most significant factors of your AI solution. These factors are categorized in 8 fields on the canvas. Three fields on the right (green) lists customer facing areas for the solution. Three fields on the left (blue) capture internal considerations for creating the solution. Two fields in the center (yellow) capture the value. Capturing and categorizing these factors in fields provides a practical and visual approach in mapping out the solution in its constituents and facilitates a constructive discussion among various stakeholders.

Google Venture SPRINT: AI&U
In only 5 days to your AI solution - based on the popular Google Venture SPRINT.
Understand – a review of AI’s origins, evolution, key concepts, and current implementations help bring the team to a common understanding and sets the stage for the next phases of the workshop.
Identify – facilitated discussions and a series of ideation exercises are used to generate a robust list of opportunities to apply AI to existing products, services, operations, corporate processes, marketing activities, etc.
Assess – the list of opportunities are assessed via both qualitative and quantitative methods, incorporating real-time market data, interviews with experts, and analysis. The list is then paired down and top ideas are consolidated into a short list of prioritized strategic initiatives.
Apply – the leading strategic initiative is validated through development of a realistic prototype that is “good enough” to demonstrate the solution to five customers (internal or external depending on the selected solution). These customers are interviewed to gain immediate feedback on the solution, helping to quickly kill the costly implementation of a bad idea or, more likely, support the refinement and full development of a great idea.
