Small on purpose.
FYORD Works is an operational AI advisory, automation, and enablement practice in Kansas City. Most firms will sell you an AI project and work out the hard part later. We start by working out whether it is worth building at all.
You get the person who does the work, on every call.
We tell you what not to build
The fastest way to lose money on AI is to build the wrong thing well. If you are not ready, that is what we will tell you.
Built by the person advising you
Nobody gets handed off to a junior. Whoever is on the first call is the person writing the code and running the training.
A launch is not the finish line
A tool nobody opens is a loss. The real test is whether your team is still using it a quarter later.

I do this work inside a business every day: AI direction, tooling, and training for around 140 people, plus advisory work for an $80B+ enterprise putting AI into its own product.
I came up through network engineering, so I can get into the details with your engineers and still explain the value to whoever signs off on it. That shows up most in the AI Readiness Audit, where the job is telling you which ideas are worth the money.
