20 Day AI Sprint

We help you take a real business problem and deliver a working AI product in 20 days. Your team works alongside ours through a rapid process of discovery, definition, build and validation. You finish with something that's actionable in your business today and setting the foundations for future growth and expansion.

Take a working hunch to a working product

A lot of other AI engagements end with some slides and a promise. The Kyan 20 Day AI Sprint ends with an AI product that you can actually run. In 20 days we go from discovery to a working AI process or product, validated against your real workflows and integrated with your existing systems.

Rapid, practical and a proven first step into AI-driven transformation. Not theory. Not strategy documents. A working model that moves the needle.

The four-week plan

The sprint is structured across four distinct steps. Every week has a clear goal and a defined output.

  1. Week 1

    Discover

    We map your workflows, understand the friction points and bottlenecks, and select the highest value problem to build around. By the end of the week, the problem is defined, the workflow is mapped and the shape of the solution is clear.

  2. Week 2

    Define

    We map the integrations, choose the architecture and technology and plan the build. What systems do we talk to, what data do we need, what does the user flow look like. By the end of the week there’s a clear blueprint for the product.

  3. Week 3

    Build

    We develop the automated process or product, connect the systems and iterate alongside your own team. AI agents, automation pipelines, user flows and data integrations all come together into a working system that runs the process end to end.

  4. Week 4

    Validate

    We test with real users and real workflows, iterate on feedback and measure the impact. Then we ship it. You finish the sprint with a working product that’s delivering value from the go and you get a clear line of sight to what comes next.

The sprint team

Automation opportunities often sit between departments. The 20 Day AI Sprint brings together operational experts, technologists and decision-makers to surface the most valuable use cases quickly. Your Kyan sprint team includes:

Facilitator

Guides the sprint process, keeping the team focused, aligned and moving forward. Ensures the right conversations happen at the right time and that progress doesn't stall.

AI Strategist

Identifies the most valuable automation opportunities and defines the roadmap for scaling. Ensures the work is grounded in business reality, not just technical possibility.

Automation Architect

Designs the AI and automation architecture. Makes sure the product integrates cleanly with your existing systems and is built to scale when you choose to take it further.

AI Engineer

Builds the agents, workflows and integrations. Turns the blueprint into a working product you can run and test against real business processes.

The sprint helped us quickly identify a high-value automation opportunity we hadn't previously considered. Within weeks we were able to see how AI could transform a key operational workflow.
