Real-world AI execution: strategy, development, and adoption

This most AI initiatives stall between proof of concept and enterprise adoption. Sole helps organizations identify high-value use cases, build practical AI solutions, and put the governance, operating model, and adoption muscle in place to make them work at scale.

Plan

For leaders who want to understand options

AI strategy & roadmap

Where to start, what is worth building, and how to sequence it across the business — grounded in your data, talent, and risk posture.

Opportunity prioritization

High-signal opportunities scored on value, feasibility, and risk. We narrow a portfolio to the few that justify executive air cover.

Build

For leaders who are clear on what they want and need help making it real

Solution development

Custom AI applications built end-to-end — agents, copilots, retrieval, evaluation — to solve a defined business problem in months, not quarters.

Workflow transformation

Redesign workflows around AI — processes, roles, controls, and handoffs — for compound value.

Scale

For leaders who need to scale AI across the organization

Agent CoE

A repeatable platform for designing, shipping, and governing AI agents — patterns, eval pipelines, observability, and operator playbooks.

AI adoption

Adoption that sticks. Workflow integration, enablement, measurement, and the change muscle that turns license counts into real usage.

AI operating model design

The org, talent, and rituals required to run AI as a capability — not a side project. Federated, central, or hybrid, sized to your shape.

Insurance · Chief AI Officer

Building a custom agent factory at a 10,000-person company

A large insurer needed to ship dozens of AI agents safely across claims, underwriting, and contact center. We designed the agent platform, ran the first three builds end-to-end, and stood up a governance and evaluation pipeline the team now operates without us.

Copilot at scale across a regulated workforce

Took a stalled 12,000-seat Copilot rollout from compliance gridlock to a measured, governed program with weekly adoption telemetry surfacing to the CIO.

C-suite use case prioritization

Ran a 6-week portfolio sprint with the executive team to cut 47 candidate AI use cases down to 9 worth funding — with sponsor, owner, and risk profile attached to each.

Why Sole

Doing AI right is mostly a people and process problem dressed up as a tech problem.

We have seen the failure modes from inside. We are built to avoid them.

01
Operators, not slide factories

Every engagement is led by people who have shipped AI inside large enterprises — not pure strategists, not pure engineers.

02
Build the muscle, not the dependency

We aim to leave. Every deliverable comes with the runbook, the operator, and the cadence to keep going without us.

03
Governance, risk and adoption from day one

Successful AI requires more than great technology. We help clients address governance, change, and adoption alongside implementation—not as an afterthought.

04
Practical partnerships

Every engagement is tailored to the problem at hand, with a scope and delivery model that fit project goals.
