Case Study

Case Study

Vancouver Startup Week

At Vancouver Startup Week 2026, our founder ran a workshop on the question every owner is asking: does your business actually need AI? No hype, just what works and what does not.

Year:

2026

Industry:

Workshop

Audience:

Founders & business owners

The Question

Owners hear that they need AI everywhere, but few have a way to tell where it will actually help.

Owners hear that they need AI everywhere, but few have a way to tell where it will actually help.

Most AI advice starts with a tool. Owners in the room wanted a simple way to look at their own business and decide where AI fits, where it does not, and what to try first.

The Workshop

We walked through our AI adoption framework: start with the task, not the tool.

We walked through our AI adoption framework: start with the task, not the tool.

Attendees mapped their own tasks on two questions, how repetitive the task is and how costly a mistake would be, and saw which tasks are ready for AI today. The session also covered how early-stage startups can find their first customers. The full workshop is on our YouTube channel. Key takeaways: - Start with the task, not the tool. - Automate what is repetitive and low risk first. - Keep people on the decisions that matter.
