Professional team discussing AI strategy

Launch AI in your business—without losing control, trust, or accountability.

No pitch—leave with actionable next steps.

The AI Hype is High. The Results? Often Underwhelming.

Most businesses are stuck in "pilot purgatory"—cool demos with no scaled wins. You don't need more tools; you need full PMO capabilities—opportunity analysis, ROI modeling, leadership alignment, change management, and risk mitigation. We bridge the gap between technological potential and real-world business impact.

Sky-High Expectations

“AI will change everything” promises outpacing proof

Mixed Results

Cool demos, but few scaled, measurable wins

Real Challenges

Bias, privacy, security, trust, and change management issues

Collaboration between humans and technology

About Craig Platt

The Steady Hand for Your AI Future

I'm Craig Platt, and I've spent over 40 years delivering business results by collaborating with business leaders, leveraging my executive leadership skills, business process expertise, and technical knowledge. I've seen technology waves come and go, but I've never seen anything with the business-changing potential—or the potential for chaos—of Artificial Intelligence.

We focus on results, accountability, and ROI—not algorithms and models. Our approach centers on measurable business outcomes that matter to your bottom line.

Businesses in Greater Cleveland are being told that AI will change everything, yet most are stuck with "cool demos" that don't actually move the needle on revenue or productivity.

I bring the discipline of a high-stakes PMO to the fast-moving world of AI.

My philosophy is simple: Humans-In-The-Lead™—AI should be your most powerful teammate, not a replacement for your judgment.

My mission is to give you the “Project Rigor” needed to launch AI initiatives that are safe, responsible, and—most importantly—measurable.

Let's build an AI initiative you can actually run.
