30+ offices across Australia, part of the Steadfast network — one of the country's largest insurance broker groups. We ran an executive AI uplift workshop for the whole leadership team — broking, compliance, operations and more.
You don't need more software. You need jobs done. Start with a 45-minute assessment to find the highest-leverage one, a workshop that teaches your team to build it themselves, or hand it straight to an AI team member we build and run for you.
We know we need to do something with AI. We just haven't landed on what.
Everyone's playing with ChatGPT. Nothing has changed about how we actually work.
I can see the vision. I don't have the time — or the team — to map it out.
We bought the tools. Nobody opens them.
My best people spend half their week on work nobody hired them for.
The one on their job description — advising clients, winning work, delivering. And the other job: the chasing, the re-keying, the follow-ups, the formatting.
Nobody applied for the other job. It just piles up — and it always lands on the people you can least afford to lose. You can't hire your way out: the jobs are too small to justify a hire, too constant to ignore.
That's what our AI team members are built for. We take the other job off your team entirely — so they spend the week on the one you actually hired them for.
How much of your week is the other job?
Find the highest-leverage fix. Build it into the real workflow and prove it. Then it runs itself — and frees capacity for the next one.
AI on top of a broken process just breaks faster. So we go deep on how work actually moves — where time leaks, where the process breaks — before anything gets automated on top.
We build the highest-leverage fix from your Blueprint into your real workflows, with your real team. A result in weeks, not months.
We measure what changed, keep it improving, and move to the next highest-leverage fix — for as long as you want us in the room.

GranolaWe build with whatever fits the job — and it runs in your accounts, under your control, not ours.
We work with founders and owners — the people actually running the business. If most of the left column sounds like you, we should talk.

A lean legal team spending hours on work that never needed a lawyer. We're rebuilding intake through matter delivery with AI embedded at every layer.

15 years delivering aged care and NDIS services, 150 carers, enquiries pouring in from three different channels. We built the lead-management system that captures, routes, and follows up on every one — so nothing slips through.
The same AI uplift model as our VC work, adapted for a family office — so AI supports decisions and reporting, not just one person's workflow.

AI uplift for a fashion brand — building capability into brand, creative process, and how the business runs behind the scenes.

Australia's biggest independent events company. We're automating the coordination behind their festivals, freeing the team to focus on delivering the event.

A full-day AI uplift workshop — turning a few early adopters into a whole team using AI across every property development workflow.

AI uplift built for a VC firm — from deal flow to portfolio support, so the whole team moves faster in their daily workflow.
Three ways in — the difference is how involved you want to be. Pick the sentence that sounds like you.
I want to know what's possible before I commit to anything.
A paid 45-minute discovery call, then a written report: where your team's time is actually going, and exactly what gets it back.
I want my team to be able to do this themselves.
A hands-on half-day on site with your team — built around your real work, not generic AI theory. Everyone leaves capable.
I just want it handled.
We build your AI team members and run them — ongoing sessions, measurement, and the next fix always in motion, for as long as you want us in the room.
Not sure which sounds like you? — take it first.
Most teams have only met AI personally — a search, a research report, a slide deck. Using it inside a business, on real client work, is a different job. It needs guardrails, and someone in the room who actually understands it — and most businesses don't have that person in-house.
That's the gap the Team Workshop fills: built around your business, taught hands-on, with your real work on the table.
Before this, our experience with AI was pretty surface-level — using it personally to search for things, get a report done, or put a presentation together. Bringing it into the business as something my team actually uses is a different challenge. You need guardrails, and someone who understands it well enough to guide you. What stood out was that it wasn't a generic AI demo. It was built around exactly what we do, and Jonathan sat with us one-on-one to show us how to actually use it. Jonathan is also someone who's genuinely on top of where AI is heading.

Most businesses know AI could probably help somehow, but not where to start or what would actually move the needle. That's the work before the build — understanding how the business actually runs, and finding the foundation worth building first.
For Just For U Care, that became a lead and enquiry system built for how they actually operate — not everywhere at once, the highest-value job first.
Before AIX Lab, we knew AI could probably help our business somehow, but we didn't know where to start. They took the time to understand how our business actually runs, and helped us see exactly where AI could provide the most value — not everywhere at once, but the foundation that made sense first. They focused on the highest-value work, and the working sessions meant our team was genuinely part of building it. We now have a lead system and dashboard that gives us visibility we never had before, and a real foundation to build on.

Three minutes. See how much of your team's week goes to the other job — and the first one worth handing over. Then, if it makes sense, we talk.
Answer a few questions about how your business runs today. We'll show you how much of the week the other job is taking — and the first one worth handing over.
What works, what stalls, and what's changing — for people who run the business.

The firms getting real AI adoption aren't shipping smarter output. They're shipping output that matches how their people actually read.

Most businesses are still running version 1.0 of themselves. What 2.0 actually looks like, and why the jump is a thinking problem before it's a technology one.

No tool ever embedded itself into a company. Someone at the top decided it mattered and made it normal. AI is no different, and the leaders treating it that way are pulling ahead.
