We capture what your team needs as they describe it.
Something working exists before the first session ends.
The 3-Day Challenge
Bring us one business problem. Have it solved by day three.
Give us a problem your teams have been circling. If we accept the challenge, a Forward Deployed AI Engineer sits with the people who own it and delivers a working solution in three days. Not a slide deck. Not a roadmap.
Introductory fixed price: £3,000 + VAT. Guaranteed to finish, at no extra cost.

The three days
Built in the room, with your team steering.
There is no specification phase. Our engineer works alongside the people who hold the problem, and they react to working software from the first day.
We build against your real data and real processes.
Your team sees it, uses it, and we change course in minutes, not through change requests.
We harden the solution and hand it to your team.
Security, testing and maintainability are engineered in. Your people leave understanding what was built and why.
Governance
Fast, and still answerable to your security team.
Speed is no excuse for fragility. This is how the challenge fits inside the controls a larger organisation already has.
An engineer accountable for every line
AI writes the first draft. A named engineer reviews and stands behind everything that ships.
Real data, real safeguards
We work on real data because sanitised examples produce sanitised solutions. Access and data handling are agreed with you before day one.
One problem, one sponsor
The scope is a single bounded problem with a named owner, so there is no programme to stand up and nothing to unwind.
A fixed introductory price
£3,000 + VAT for the challenge. It is an introductory price for a first challenge; any follow-on work is quoted separately.
A guarantee to finish
If we accept your challenge, we finish it. Should it need more than three days, the extra days are at our cost, not yours.
Evidence, not a business case
You finish with a working solution, a record of every decision made along the way, and a plain statement of what production would take.
The Intentive approach
Why three days is enough.
Intentive development removes the layers between the person with the problem and the person building the answer. These are the values we work to.
- ✓Intent expressed in the roomover requirements written for later
- ✓Software people can react toover specifications they must imagine
- ✓The people who hold the problemover intermediaries who translate it
- ✓Changing course in minutesover change requests in weeks
What we accept
“If we accept” is the important part.
We do not take every challenge. We review each submission and say yes only when we believe a working solution is achievable in three days with the people and data you can make available. If it is not a fit, we tell you why.
Submit a challengeWe will say no to replacing a core system of record, or to a problem nobody in the business owns.
Questions we expect
Before you set us a challenge.
Is this a proof of concept?
It is a working solution to the problem you set, built on your data. Day three also tells you what scaling it would involve.
What do you need from us?
The people who own the problem, in the room, and access to the data they work with. Without both we will not accept the challenge.
What are we signing up to?
One challenge at a fixed £3,000 + VAT. There is no retainer and no obligation to continue afterwards.
Set us a challenge
Describe the problem. We’ll tell you whether we can solve it.
Choose a slot for a short call and talk us through the problem: who owns it, what it costs you today, and what “solved” would look like. We will tell you whether we can accept it.
