how we work
The ROI and Shine Implementation Methodology
Most AI projects fail because the sequence is wrong. Strategy without implementation is a PDF. Implementation without governance is a liability.
- 1
Phase 1 · Audit & Discovery
Map what exists: AI tools already running (including Shadow AI nobody approved), processes consuming the most time, margin trapped in manual work.
→ AI tool inventory · Shadow AI register · Process map with automation scoring · Quick-win identification.
- 2
Phase 2 · Strategy & ROI Modeling
Model the ROI with your actual cost structures, team capacity, and margin targets. Not generic benchmarks.
→ ROI model per use case · Prioritized roadmap (30/60/90 days) · Vendor comparison · Board-ready business case.
- 3
Phase 3 · Safe Setup & Governance
Governance before deployment. AI Charter signed, compliance documents generated via AI and Shine, hosting verified, prompt library established.
→ AI Charter · EU AI Act compliance package · DPA reviews · Prompt library with audit logs.
- 4
Phase 4 · Build, Deploy, Measure
Deploy prioritized solutions with measurement from day one. No vanity metrics. ROI dashboards your CFO can read.
→ Working agents and automations · Stack integration · ROI dashboard · Team training · Handoff docs.
- 5
Phase 5 · Optimize & Scale (ongoing)
Periodic reviews, compliance document regeneration, new use case identification, scale what works.
→ Monthly reviews · Living compliance via AI and Shine · Capability building · Handoff documentation.

what we build
Implementation examples — from pilot to production.
These are real categories of work we deliver for clients. Each represents a proven implementation pattern with measurable ROI.
RAG for Your Company
Connect an LLM to your proprietary knowledge base — policies, product docs, playbooks, transcripts. Your team asks in natural language, gets sourced answers with citations to the original document.
How: Document ingestion into vector database → hybrid search (semantic + keyword) → frontier LLM (Claude/GPT) with guardrails → source attribution on every answer.
ROI: 40–60% reduction in time-to-answer. Onboarding time cut by half. Support tickets resolved 2x faster.
✓ Works with Notion, Confluence, SharePoint, Google Drive · ✓ EU-hosted option · ✓ Role-based access · ✓ Full audit trail
Em-one — Proprietary Intelligent Internal Linking
Our embedding-based engine analyzes every page on your site, generates semantic embeddings, and identifies the most relevant internal link opportunities — by meaning, not keyword matching.
How: Embed full site content → build semantic similarity graph → score by topical relevance + strategic value (pillar → cluster) → generate implementation-ready recommendations with anchor text and placement.
ROI: 15–30% organic traffic increase within 90 days from internal linking alone. Improved crawl efficiency and authority distribution.
✓ Any CMS · ✓ Scales to 100,000+ pages · ✓ Auto-updates with new content · ✓ Enhances existing architecture
Claude Cowork Agents
AI agents deployed inside your actual workflow, Slack, email, project management, CRM, executing real tasks with human oversight. Not a chatbot on a webpage.
Agents we deploy:
- Meeting Intelligence: transcribes, extracts actions, updates boards, drafts follow-ups.
- Research: monitors news, competitors, regulatory changes, delivers tailored daily briefings.
- Content: drafts posts, emails, campaigns from your brand guidelines.
- Operations: processes requests, routes to teams, fills templates, flags exceptions.
ROI: 3–5 hours saved per employee per week. Response times cut 60%. Meeting follow-up in 10 minutes.
✓ Human-in-the-loop · ✓ Prompt library with version control · ✓ Audit trail · ✓ EU AI Act compliant
SEO on Autopilot
Governed content pipeline: AI generation + human editorial control. From keyword research to publication, 20–50 articles/week optimized for both search and generative AI citation (GEO).
Pipeline: Keyword clustering → AI content briefs with competitor analysis → First draft with brand voice → Human review + fact-check → Technical SEO (schema, meta, internal linking via em-one) → Publish + track.
ROI: 5x output at 40% previous cost. Organic traffic +40–80% within 6 months. Content in AI citation pools within 3–5 days.
✓ Human editor on every article · ✓ Plagiarism + AI detection checks · ✓ Schema + GEO on every page · ✓ Any CMS
Process Automation with Agentic AI
End-to-end automation using AI agents that reason, decide, and act — not just follow rules. Unlike RPA, agentic automation handles context and exceptions.
Examples: Invoice processing (any format → PO match → approval routing) · Vendor onboarding (docs → compliance check → DPA analysis) · Report generation (multi-source → formatted with insights) · Support triage (classify → draft → escalate).
ROI: 60–80% reduction in manual processing. Error rates down 90%.
✓ Custom frameworks · ✓ Human-in-the-loop · ✓ Full audit trail · ✓ Scales without headcount
Safe AI Implementation Program
Complete organizational framework: Shadow AI Audit → AI Charter → EU AI Act Compliance (via AI and Shine) → EU Hosting Verification → Model Use Documentation → Prompt Library with Logs.
ROI: Full visibility over your AI portfolio. Audit-ready compliance. Reduced legal/reputational risk. Foundation for safe scaling.
✓ Every tool classified · ✓ Compliance docs in hours · ✓ EU hosting verified · ✓ Living governance, not one-time project

faq
Frequently Asked Questions.
What industries do you work with?
We work across e-commerce, marketplaces, FMCG, pharmacy and life sciences, finance and fintech, professional equipment, logistics, HR, SaaS platforms, and analytics. Our implementations are sector-specific — a RAG system for a pharmaceutical company has fundamentally different compliance requirements than one for an e-commerce platform. We don't do generic.
What is the EU AI Act and does my company need to comply?
The EU AI Act is the world's first comprehensive AI regulation, fully enforceable since August 2026. If your company operates in the EU and uses any AI-containing tools — that includes your CRM, your marketing automation, your recruitment platform, your chatbot — you need to comply. Non-compliance carries fines up to €35 million or 7% of global turnover. Our AI and Shine platform automates the compliance process.
What is a Shadow AI audit?
Shadow AI is AI tool usage within your organization that IT, compliance, or leadership doesn't know about. An employee using ChatGPT to draft client emails. A marketing manager using an AI image generator without checking licensing. An HR tool with AI screening that nobody classified under the EU AI Act. Our Shadow AI audit surfaces every AI tool in use — approved or not — and provides a risk-scored inventory with clear next steps.
What is RAG and why would my company need it?
RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) connects an AI model to your company's proprietary knowledge base — internal documents, policies, product specs, customer data. Instead of the AI guessing or hallucinating, it retrieves real information from your sources and generates answers with citations. It's the difference between a generic chatbot and an AI assistant that actually knows your business. We deploy RAG systems connected to your existing tools (Google Drive, Confluence, SharePoint, Notion).
What is em-one?
em-one is our proprietary intelligent internal linking engine. It uses semantic embeddings to analyze your entire website content and identify the most relevant internal link opportunities — not based on keyword matching, but on actual meaning. It scales to 100,000+ pages and updates automatically as new content is published. Internal linking is one of the highest-ROI SEO and GEO levers — em-one automates it.
How do you ensure AI implementations are safe?
Every engagement starts with an audit. We follow our Safe AI framework: AI Charter as governance foundation, EU AI Act compliance from day one, EU hosting verification, transparency documentation for every model, centralized prompt library with version control and audit logs, and Shadow AI audit to surface ungoverned tool usage. We use the AI and Shine platform for compliance documentation and ongoing governance.
What does a typical engagement cost?
Discovery Call: free (30 minutes). Strategy Day: starting at €5,000. AI audit and compliance: from €5,000. Full implementation projects: €25,000–€80,000 depending on scope. Monthly advisory retainer: from €3,000/month. AI and Shine platform: separate pricing (Foundation / Compliance / Enterprise plans). We don't take engagements where AI can't deliver clear ROI in 90 days.
How long does AI implementation typically take?
Audit and strategy: 2–3 weeks. First implementation: 4–12 weeks depending on complexity. Compliance documentation (via AI and Shine): same day for tool registration, 1–2 weeks for full compliance package. Ongoing optimization: continuous. We deliver measurable ROI within the first 90 days.
Can you work with our existing tech stack?
Yes. We integrate with whatever you're running — WordPress, Shopify, custom platforms, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Make.com, n8n, Salesforce, HubSpot, and more. We don't force vendor lock-in. Every implementation includes handoff documentation.
Do you train internal teams or only deliver?
Both. Every implementation includes team training so adoption sticks. We deliver done-with-you, not done-for-you. The AI and Shine platform includes AI Literacy training courses for the entire organization, and we run specialized workshops for specific teams (marketing, HR, leadership, engineering).
What languages do you work in?
Polish, English, and French as native delivery languages. The AI and Shine platform generates compliance documents and AI Literacy training materials in all 26 EU languages.
