For CDOs, CTOs and GMs of Digital at enterprise brands
Get AI delivering real business results on the systems you already run.
Brownfield AI helps digital and technology leaders turn AI into faster roadmaps, lower cost per change and a team with time to think, without ripping out the platform that carries your revenue.
It's Monday morning. The board pack is due Thursday, and there's a slide titled AI.
Your teams have the tools. The demos looked great. But the roadmap still moves at the same pace, every change to the site still feels risky, and a replatform proposal in your inbox promises to fix it all for a few million dollars and two years of disruption.
You shouldn't have to rip out what works to get the benefit of AI.
What's a brownfield platform?
It's the system your business already depends on. Built up over years, customised for how you sell, connected to everything, and carrying revenue every hour of the day. The opposite of a clean, brand-new build.
Most enterprise value lives on platforms like this. It's also where off-the-shelf AI struggles most, because the tools don't know the years of decisions baked into yours. So the pilots impress, and then they stall.
Sound familiar?
AI is in use, but the roadmap hasn't moved
Licences are paid and adoption looks healthy. Delivery speed and cost per change look the same as last year.
Every change feels risky
Nobody is fully sure what a change will touch. So work slows down, reviews pile up, and your best engineers become the bottleneck.
Replatforming looks like the only way out
It's the most expensive answer on the table, and it pauses the business while it happens. Often there's a better one.
How it works
Three steps. One business outcome you choose.
You bring the outcome you're after, however vague the brief. We bring the number that shows it moved.
-
1
Audit
We find where AI will move your numbers, what your platform needs first, and what's standing in the way. You get a clear plan and an honest view, including whether to stay, fix or move.
-
2
Build
We put governed AI delivery pipelines in place, built around your platform and aimed at the outcome you care about. AI does the routine work; your people sign off what matters.
-
3
Run
On a monthly retainer, we keep everything tuned and upgraded as AI moves on, so the gains keep compounding instead of fading after the launch.
What changes
- Your roadmap ships in weeks, not quarters
- You get more from the team you already have
- Less spend on outside delivery
- More releases, with fewer incidents
- Your engineers spend their time on the problems worth solving
- Your board sees AI in the numbers
I've sat where your team sits. I initiated and delivered an AI-native transformation of a global commerce estate: roadmaps landing months earlier, the same team delivering more, outside delivery spend no longer needed, and fewer incidents along the way.
Nineteen years across engineering, commerce platforms and delivery leadership, including Fisher & Paykel, The Warehouse Group and IAG. Deep Salesforce Commerce Cloud experience, from customer interviews and solution design through to running the platform day to day.
Brownfield AI starts with Salesforce Commerce Cloud estates, where that depth is greatest, and works independently of platform vendors and systems integrators. Our only interest is your outcome.
If AI hasn't moved your delivery numbers yet, let's talk.
A 30-minute conversation about your platform and the outcome you're after. No pitch deck.
