Write before the next budget is committed

What are you preparing to expose, and what decision does it need to support?

Write two or three lines: what exists, what is about to be committed, and where the reading feels weak, unclear or costly

I answer with one question, at no charge, and it is the one that locates where the position gives way

If the question is enough, take it. If it opens the right problem, the first paid format is the Exposure Check at €600

§ 00, The first step

Free · no commitment

WindowTwo lines in, one question back

The first step costs nothing

Tell me what has been built and which exposure, capital, transmission or market decision is approaching. You receive one precise question back

§ 01, When we go deeper

Three engagements, one way in

AIS™ works through a small number of engagements a year. The Exposure Check is the way in, at a fixed price. The Session and the mandate are scoped to the situation

01

Exposure Check

€600 · written verdict within 48 to 72h

Before a launch, expansion, fair, campaign, sale or public move

I read whether the position can hold the coming exposure. The answer is written, direct and usable: go, stop, or move with conditions

02

The Session

€4,500 · a half-day, Paris, Bangkok or remote

When the budget, the timeline and the stakeholders are set, but the reading is not

A half-day on one situation. You bring what exists and what is about to be committed, I bring the outside eye. We leave with a written reading and a decision your team can act on. See The Session

03

The Mandate

From €15,000 to €40,000 · most mandates fall between €18,000 and €25,000

When the position has to be built, repaired or transmitted

The mandate opens with a full Pre-Exposure Audit, a confidential reading of where the position holds, where legitimacy gives way, which audiences matter. Then the reconstruction: language, sequence, targets, refusals, documents and decisions. At the end, the position holds. Continued watch may then be proposed, depending on the situation

§ 02, Write to me

Each request is read directly. Answered within two working days

Two or three lines are enough. You do not need to phrase the problem perfectly. The first work is to locate where the position may give way

§ 03, Questions

Why isn’t AI enough?+

AI can produce language from the information it is given. AIS™ reads what surrounds that information: the social, symbolic and market pressure; what the room will hear, what it will distrust, what it will misvalue, what it will not see

Why involve you before my agency?+

It gives you the outside read first. A brief built on a position that already holds is sharper to execute, and it saves your agency time. Most agencies welcome that, the same way a second opinion is routine before surgery

Where does AIS™ stop?+

AIS™ stops before execution. The value sits in the reading and the decision that come before it: what should be made legible, what should be withheld, who should see it first, and which move should wait. I may help choose who executes next, but AIS™ does not become the team that produces the campaign
