10yrs in AI-first businesses · 75% AI adoption increase · £185K capacity gained on a single workflow
Get AI working across the whole team, not just the keen few.
You know you need AI in your business, you may have invested in licenses. What you need now is for the rest of the business to use it, not just the early adopters. We're your adoption partner: we bring the strategy, sort out the processes and documentation that go around the tools, and build the capability so it stays with your team.
AI isn't like the software you've rolled out before. It changes how people think, decide and work, so getting value from it is a change in behaviour. That's why we start with your people: their work, their processes, their data, and where AI already helps or could. From there we co-create the ways of working, map tools and any shadow AI and leave you with a confident team.
To connect everything, we treat the AI in your business as a living system to manage. It's the framework behind how we work, inspired by ecology.

Stack-agnostic by design
Build fluency in the AI already in your work
Get the team confident with the AI assistants inside the tools they use every day, and how they work together using them. Not new apps to learn, the AI the business is already paying for.
Turn individual use into shared ways of working
Move from people using AI alone to teams working the same way: multiple tools combined into one workflow, sharing data and outputs so the work stays consistent and the knowledge is shared and not siloed.
Build capability your stack didn’t have on its own
Where it makes an impact, custom integrations and bespoke agents that create ways of working your tools could not do alone. We work with you and your team to design these.
Strategic AI adoption: people, processes and data first
Don’t know where to begin
You know AI matters and you know you’ll fall behind if you don’t move. You just don’t know what ‘starting properly’ looks like, or who to trust to tell you.
Licensed, not adopted
You bought Copilot, Claude or ChatGPT. The team isn’t doing much with them. The rollout didn’t start with the problem the tools were meant to solve.
Pockets of AI, no pattern
Clusters of AI use across the business. All scattered, all small-scale. Nothing joined up, no way to tell what’s working, and nothing you can scale to the rest of the team.
Uneven across the team
Some people are building agents. Others are still using AI for the odd email. You want the team levelled out so adoption is consistent, and so the early adopters aren’t pulling the rest of the business along behind them.
Used daily, but not strategically
Your team is capable and uses AI daily. But it’s still individual productivity: a faster way to do the same tasks. It hasn’t changed how the business runs or decides. You want it built in, not running alongside it.

Who you’ll work with
Dr Chloe Sharp and Simon Sharp
We work with leadership teams adopting AI across the business: automotive, AI B2B SaaS, professional and financial services. We’ve been at this since ChatGPT launched: using AI in our own work, building our own AI products, and helping leaders find their footing. Most know AI matters; they’re struggling embed it consistently. We start with your people, processes and data, to see where AI fits best.
Chloe brings the methodology: PhD in psychology, behavioural science and sociology; author of Make Products That Matter; Innovate UK Assessor; ILM7 coach; angel investor. Simon brings the enterprise implementation: 11 years at Mercedes-Benz UK, building processes that touched thousands of vehicles across the dealer network, plus shipping Sharp Insights’ own AI products.

What leaders say
“Since the hackathon, we’ve done some lunch and learn sessions, with F2F and remote participation, and I’ve definitely seen more people using AI. Someone in my team recently created a Dealer survey using AI, so it’s great to see people using it in a more positive way.”
“We co-developed a CustomGPT tailored to support the content generation and re-purposing process. This has transformed how we work as a team, increasing our capacity to meet the demands of a growing business. What used to take hours can now take minutes, allowing our marketing team to focus on higher-impact activities and creativity rather than repetitive content drafting.”
“Using the Six Thinking Hats framework, we explored AI’s opportunities and risks, identifying real use cases tailored to our needs. The day ended with an individual pledge to start using ChatGPT. We left feeling ready to start using AI by the end, and we started to see the use of AI after the workshop across the business.”

What the evidence says
Adoption fails on culture, not on tooling
of reported AI impact comes from organisational factors: culture, manager support, talent practices. Twice the share of individual factors.
of leaders say AI is deployed organisation-wide. The rest run pilots and partial rollouts, with licences paid for but adoption patchy.
of organisations now use AI in at least one function, up from 78% in 2024. Most are not yet seeing the gains they expected.
