The Discovery Call

Twenty minutes. No cost. No obligation. We use it to understand the business, the pressure points, and where AI might genuinely move a metric. By the end of the call, you know whether Keystone is the right fit. If we're not, we'll tell you that, and we'll tell you why.

This is not a sales call dressed up as a consultation. It is a diagnostic. We ask specific questions about your workflows, your revenue model, your team, and your biggest operational pain points. The output is an honest read on where AI can and cannot add value for your specific business.

What we cover Your top operational pain points. Where revenue is slipping. What your team spends time on that a system should handle.
What you leave with A clear, honest read on whether your business is ready for AI, and where we'd start if it is.

The Discovery Report

Before the report is written, we run a 1–2 hour deep-dive call with you and the people closest to the workflows that matter most. That call is what the report is built on: specific workflows, real numbers, named systems. The written report follows within 48 hours.

What you get back is decision-grade material. The highest-value AI opportunities in your business, what each would cost to build, and the projected financial return. Take it away and build it yourself. Hand it to another team to build. Come back to us. The €1,000 is credited in full against the build cost if you do.

1–2 hour deep-dive call Held within a few days of the Discovery Call. We sit with the people doing the work and map exactly where the time is going.
Workflows mapped Top three AI opportunities specific to your business, in priority order, with the rationale for each.
Costs & returns Build cost for each workflow. Expected annual saving or revenue uplift. Payback timeline. Numbers, not theatre.
Delivered in 48 hours The written report lands within 48 hours of the deep-dive call. Yours to act on however you want. €1,000 credited against the build if you proceed.

Workflow Development

We build the core intelligence hub for your business. Fixed scope, fixed price, typically four weeks. The same people who scoped the report are the ones building it, no handoffs to a delivery team, no account managers playing telephone. The hub goes live on your real data with your team using it from day one.

The first workflow becomes the foundation everything else gets built on. It connects to your existing systems, holds your data, and runs the agents we identified together. From day one, it's working on real operations inside your business.

One core hub A single intelligence layer connecting your existing systems. Reusable across multiple workflows and, in time, multiple businesses.
The first agents go live The highest-priority workflows from the Discovery Report, built into the hub and running on day one.
Built for your operation Configured to your data, your systems, your way of working. Not generic software you have to adapt around.
Fixed price, no surprises Scope, price, and delivery date agreed in writing before any build starts. We build exactly what we scoped.

Continued Development

Once the hub is running, new agents and workflows go on top of it. And because the hard part (the data, the connections, the intelligence layer) already exists, each new app is faster and cheaper than the last. The more you run the hub, the more it compounds.

The hub also extends across multiple businesses. If you run several companies, the same core layer can serve all of them. One hub. Many businesses. Each new application using the data and patterns the others have already established.

Compounding economies of scale Every new app benefits from the data and infrastructure the hub already has. Build cost drops with every iteration.
One hub, many businesses If you run more than one company, the hub can serve all of them. The intelligence travels with you.
Quarterly priorities We work with you to identify the highest-value next app, build it on the existing hub, and measure the result.
Stop whenever you want No retainers, no lock-in. The hub keeps running whether we're building on it or not. You decide when there's another app worth commissioning.
What You Get

Not a report. A working system.

Every Keystone engagement ends with something running in your business. Something you can point to, measure, and build on.

01

Working Software

A live AI workflow built specifically for your business. Not generic software you have to adapt. Not a demo. Something running on your data, in your systems.

02

Documented Scope

A written scope that defines exactly what was built, how it works, and how to operate it. Clearly documented for your team.

03

A Trained Team

The people using the system know how to use it. Not from a manual. From having used it alongside us during deployment.

04

Measured Results

Data showing whether the system is delivering against the metrics agreed at the start. Honest, specific, and yours to act on.

05

A Roadmap Forward

A clear picture of the next highest-value workflow to build, informed by what you've learned from the first. Not a theoretical plan. A practical next step.
