Use-case Discovery & ROI
Turn a long list of AI ideas into a few business cases you can defend, with baselines and success measures.
/ 01The business problem
Why this matters
AI business cases often fail because the baseline was never measured. Teams estimate time saved without knowing how long the work takes today, ignore the cost of review and exceptions, and forget running costs such as model usage and support.
Discovery fixes that by mapping the real process, measuring it and modelling the AI-assisted version honestly, including the parts that still need people.
Who it is for
- Business owners preparing an investment case
- Finance partners who need defensible assumptions
- Product teams choosing between candidate use cases

- 03Data availability and quality check
- 04AI-assisted process design including exceptions and review
- 05Cost model covering build, run and support
- 06Success metrics and measurement plan
/ 03Technical approach
How we work on it
Measure the baseline
We sample real cases and time the work, so savings are calculated from facts.
Model the whole process
The future state includes review effort, exception handling and failure modes, not only the happy path.
Agree the scorecard
Before anything is built, sponsors sign off the metrics that will decide whether the initiative continues.

- 4
Delivery
Iterative sprints with demos and evaluation results at each milestone.
- 5
Handover or run
Documentation, runbooks and training, or ongoing operation by our team.

/ 06FAQ
Common questions
What if the numbers do not justify AI?
Then we say so. A no-go decision based on evidence is a good outcome, and simpler automation is sometimes the better answer.
Do you need access to production data?
A representative sample is usually enough, handled under an agreed data protection arrangement.
