Frontier Watch · by subscription

Your AI radar and sounding board.

Someone who follows the frontier for you, translates it to your stack, your roadmap and your policy, and is there when a choice comes up. A monthly briefing, a standing line to us, a quarterly decision session with your board.

Annual subscription, billed monthly. Details and price in the information pack.

Why a radar

The frontier moves monthly. Your decisions can't wait for it.

New models, new tools, new rules, every month. Most of it doesn't matter to you. Some of it matters a lot, and it rarely announces itself. Nobody in your organisation has the time to follow it all, and the decisions get taken anyway: a renewal, a policy, a build. Frontier Watch is the radar those decisions deserve, from people who aren't selling you a platform.

"We renewed a licence we should have switched."

"Two teams built the same agent, on two different tools."

"We can't tell what is real and what is a wrapper."

What you get

Four things, every year.

The ninety minutes a month are the visible top of it. The product is the translation: our reading of the frontier is one effort; what it means for you is the work.

Every month

The briefing

Ninety minutes with your leadership team or AI lead, prepared with a note: what changed, what it means for your stack, your roadmap and your policy, what we'd do and what we'd ignore.

In between

The line to us

A standing line for the questions the month raises: a tool a team wants, a vendor's claim, a policy call. Asynchronous, with a fixed capacity per month and a straight answer.

Every quarter

The decision session

The Executive Briefing, on subscription: a session with your board and an updated tooling and capability roadmap, so the big decisions get taken on time.

Once a year

The refresh

Refreshed lab material for every Academy format you have run, so what your people learned last year still matches the tools they use this year.

Two tiers: Team, with the note, the line and the quarterly session, for organisations that want the radar without the monthly meeting; and Organisation, with everything above. Both in the information pack.

Who it's for

For organisations already underway, and the people who own the decisions.

The organisation

Already underway.

You have tools, a plan or a programme, and a leadership team that would rather decide on time than by surprise. Whether you got there with us or without us.

The people

A CEO, CIO or AI lead.

Someone who owns the AI decisions and wants a second opinion that isn't selling a platform, a licence or a build.

Not for

Anyone who wants a newsletter.

There are excellent free ones. This is a retainer for decisions, written for one organisation at a time, and sized to a small number of them.

How it starts

It starts with a briefing.

1

The intro briefing

An Executive Briefing for your leadership team: the state of AI for your industry and your organisation, and your three decisions. If it stops there, it was still worth two hours.

2

Your first note

Within the first month: your organisation's note. Your stack, your roadmap, your policy, and what we'd watch for you.

3

The rhythm

The monthly briefing, the line, the quarterly session. Cancel at the end of the year, or keep the radar.

Start with an intro briefing

Stop following the frontier on the side.

Tell us who owns the AI decisions in your organisation and what's on the table this quarter. We'll come back with the pack, and with a straight read on whether the radar is what you need.

What comes back
1

The information pack

What's in a month, the two tiers, the price. A few pages, no deck.

2

A straight read on fit

Including "not yet" when a Foundations day or a Scan would serve you better first.

3

A proposed start

Subscriptions start on the first of a month, with the intro briefing in the weeks before.
