Pineapple Blueprint · San Diego

AI Design Consulting

AI enhances human experience. Structured advisory turns strategy into measurable, governable outcomes.

01

Product Design

From strategy to shipped, measured by outcomes.

  • Product strategy
  • UX for complex workflows
  • Execution that ships

Designs products end to end: product strategy, UX across complex workflows, and cross-functional execution that ships, measured against real business outcomes rather than deliverables alone.

02

AI Transformation

AI where it creates value, not a chatbot bolted on.

  • Find the real value
  • Redesign the workflow
  • Human plus AI interaction

Identifies where AI creates real value, redesigns the workflow around it, and designs the human-plus-AI interaction: prototyping and operationalizing AI-native experiences rather than adding a chatbot to an unchanged process.

03

AI Workflow & Operations

Less busywork. People stay in the decisions that matter.

  • Map the work
  • Automate the repetitive
  • People in the loop

Maps current workflows, finds the repetitive and friction-heavy work, and redesigns the system and handoffs: choosing where automation and AI belong, keeping people in the critical decision loops, and measuring the operational impact.

Each of these runs through the engagement formats below: the Diagnostic, Adoption System Design, and the ongoing retainer.

Entry Point

AI Opportunity Mapping

Problem Solved

AI features are shipping because the model can, not because the user needs them there. Nobody owns the decision of where AI belongs in the product.

The Path

Every engagement starts with the map. Each step stands on its own:

  1. 2-Week Diagnostic: fixed scope, the map itself.
  2. Adoption System Design: the experience, designed and proven.
  3. AI Product Architecture on Retainer: ongoing strategy and design as you scale.

Ideal Fit

Product teams with AI capability live but adoption or impact flat.

30 Min

Advisory Intro Call

Purpose

A fast, high-signal conversation to establish strategic clarity around your immediate AI challenges and opportunities.

Format

30-minute structured discussion to evaluate fit, define the problem space, and determine the right next steps.

Ongoing, the Core Offering

AI Product Architecture on Retainer

Problem Solved

AI product decisions do not arrive on a project schedule. Models change monthly, and every flow you ship opens the next set of choices. You need the architect in the room, not on a proposal.

Deliverables

Ongoing strategy and AI product design: fresh opportunity mapping as the landscape shifts, experience design through your build cycles, monthly strategic reviews with KPI realignment, and design standards that hold as you scale.

Ideal Fit

Teams shipping AI now that want ongoing guidance or team augmentation: design leadership on retainer instead of another full time hire.

2 Weeks

2-Week AI Opportunity & Adoption Diagnostic (SMB)

Problem Solved

You’re using AI in a few places, but results are inconsistent. You’re not sure where AI should drive the biggest business impact next, or what to fix first.

Deliverables

  • AI impact scan across core workflows (sales, marketing, ops, support)
  • friction and adoption diagnosis (where usage drops or stalls)
  • prioritized use-case list (quick wins + growth bets)
  • practical implementation roadmap (tools, owners, sequence, metrics)
  • 30/60/90-day rollout plan your team can actually execute

Ideal Fit

Small businesses and startup teams with early AI usage that want clearer ROI, better adoption, and a focused path to scale.

You leave with a ranked backlog of AI opportunities and a clear plan to execute the highest-impact one first, so you accelerate the business instead of stalling on where to start.

Know what to prioritise
2 Weeks

2-Week AI Opportunity & Adoption Diagnostic (Enterprise)

Problem Solved

You have AI initiatives across internal orgs and/or product surfaces, but impact is uneven, ownership is fragmented, and scale decisions are unclear.

Deliverables

  • enterprise AI opportunity map (internal workflows + customer experience)
  • adoption and trust/friction assessment by org and workflow
  • prioritized use-case portfolio (quick wins + strategic bets)
  • operating roadmap (owners, sequencing, metrics, governance)
  • 30/60/90-day intervention plan aligned to adoption and business outcomes

Ideal Fit

Cross-functional teams post-pilot, pre-scale that need clear prioritization, adoption lift, and execution confidence across multiple orgs.

You leave with a prioritized portfolio of AI opportunities and a clear plan to execute the highest-impact one first, so you accelerate outcomes instead of stalling on where to start.

4-10 Weeks, Scoped in the Diagnostic

Adoption System Design

Problem Solved

You need a proprietary interface and operating system that makes your core models safe, usable, and valuable for non-technical employees.

Deliverables

High-fidelity UX architecture, custom AI interaction patterns (human-in-the-loop workflows), governance dashboards, and detailed engineering handoff.

Ideal Fit

Organizations with committed engineering resources ready to build the application layer.

Custom Format

Speaking & Workshops

Problem Solved

Your team needs alignment on AI opportunities, practical frameworks for adoption, and the capability to execute without creating operational chaos.

Deliverables

Custom-tailored keynotes, executive briefings, or interactive team workshops designed to build capability and lasting team consensus.
