Most "AI app" engagements stall in scoping. Here's the three-week structure we use to go from a rough idea to a live, working tool every time.
Week one: scope ruthlessly
We cut the idea down to the one workflow that matters most, and we build only that. Everything else is a "later."
Week two: build in public with the client
Daily check-ins against a working build, not a deck. The client sees real progress, and we catch scope drift before it costs us a week.
Week three: harden and ship
Edge cases, error states, and a demo script built around the moment that actually sells the tool internally.
