YOUR TEAM'S BEST DAY

Find the AI product opportunity that is actually worth building.

Personally prepared and facilitated by Quinn O'Briant Heller. AI product, experience strategy, and responsible innovation leader.

AI capability is moving faster than product judgment.

Most teams are not short on AI ideas.
They're short on answers to three questions: where AI creates real customer value, which opportunity best supports business priorities, and when to commit major resources.

AI-powered tools can create real value, for customers and for the business. A scattered approach won't work. Let's focus on what will. 

What the day delivers

Six outcomes your team walks out with.

01

Clarity on where AI may create real value

Identify the customer problems where AI has the strongest potential to create meaningful value.

02

A well-supported priority recommendation

Evaluate opportunities against customer value, strategic fit, feasibility, trust, and risk, then identify the strongest for further investment.

03

A tangible concept by the end of the day

Create a concrete experience concept, future-state journey, or lightweight prototype that stakeholders can review and test.

04

A faster path to stakeholder alignment

Bring product, design, engineering, risk, and executive stakeholders into the same decision process, surfacing tradeoffs and unresolved concerns early.

05

A practical validation plan

Define key assumptions, customer questions, and next steps to determine whether the concept should move forward.

06

Trust and risk considered from the start

Responsible AI, accessibility, and customer-trust questions are built into the concept and decision process rather than discovered late in review.
