How can AI help if we've already optimized everything?

Our AI sees what human eyes miss in your "already optimized" operations. We consistently find 3-8% EBITDA improvements even in companies that have gone through multiple cost-cutting rounds.

How long does the AI Value Discovery process take?

30 days. Our rapid implementation approach focuses on quick wins first, delivering measurable improvements within days while building toward your complete vision.

What makes C² Insights different from traditional consultants?

We're not traditional consultants. We're technical co-founders who build systems, not PowerPoints. Our clients own everything we create, and we focus on implementation over documentation. No vendor lock-in, no lengthy discovery phases.

Do I need an internal AI team before starting?

No. Our Phase 1 Discovery is designed for companies without AI capabilities. We bring the expertise and technology, analyze your operations, and deliver a clear roadmap. Many clients then engage us to guide implementation or serve as their fractional AI CXO.
