    We review your company and the context you share, so the conversation starts with relevant questions and ideas.

We started working AI into a real company in 2022, investing our own money and learning through failed demos, pilots we stopped, and builds that survived. Before that, I ran a forty-division company, advised families on where serious money should and shouldn’t move, and produced films that sold to Netflix and HBO. Every recommendation leaves with my name on it.

Built in practice

Our own work.
Our own lessons.

Our AI practice began inside ANVL Entertainment, where we built and tested tools against real production and development work. That experience shapes how we judge what is useful, what needs supervision, and what survives beyond a demonstration.

AI decision intelligence FAQs

The questions people ask before booking. All 26 answers are on the FAQ page.

What is AI decision intelligence?

At DeepMoat, AI decision intelligence means helping people make consequential choices about AI: what to prove, buy, build, govern, pause, or stop. We start with the business outcome, the people accountable for it, and the consequences of getting the decision wrong. We then compare practical routes against evidence, cost, data boundaries, implementation needs, and operating control. The result is a reasoned next move, which may involve your existing team, another provider, or separately scoped work with DeepMoat.

What happens in Signal Triage—and what does it cost?

Signal Triage is a private, prepared, 45-minute Zoom review of the AI commitment in front of you. At least two core team members join, with advance research into your company and the context you share. You can book and pay immediately. The optional AI intake can help focus the meeting before or after you book; do not submit credentials or sensitive records through it. Bring a high-level summary of the proposal or demo, decision deadline, and known constraints. You leave with the decision clarified, plausible routes compared, material unknowns surfaced, useful ideas, and a recommended next move. A written meeting summary captures the ideas discussed and recommended next steps. The price is US$375 plus applicable tax, credited toward your next accepted paid DeepMoat scope, which can include Signal Briefing. It is not a roadmap, legal opinion, security audit, or implementation plan.

What do we receive after Signal Triage?

You receive a written meeting summary capturing the ideas discussed and DeepMoat's recommended next steps. The conversation clarifies the decision, compares plausible routes, and identifies important unknowns. The summary gives you something to return to and discuss with your team. You can use that guidance whether or not you hire DeepMoat again. Technical diligence, a detailed roadmap, a prototype, and implementation are separate deliverables that require their own agreed scope.

Do we need to complete the AI intake?

No. You can book directly. The optional AI intake asks five focused questions about the situation and turns your answers into an Intake Clarity Brief: your situation, where the complexity appears, what matters to your team, what remains unclear, and what Signal Triage will clarify. We use it to prepare the meeting. Keep it high level; we will agree how to handle sensitive material before requesting it.

How do Signal Triage payment, rescheduling, and fee credit work?

Signal Triage costs US$375 plus applicable tax. Payment is nonrefundable except where a refund is required by law, and one reschedule is included. The fee is credited toward your next accepted paid DeepMoat scope, which can include Signal Briefing. A later engagement remains optional and is scoped separately. Review the booking page and checkout terms before completing your reservation; no later purchase is required to use the ideas and recommendations from your session.

Review booking details and terms

If DeepMoat may later help build, how can the first recommendation be independent?

Signal Triage is separately paid and scoped around the decision—not a pre-committed build or staffing sale. The recommendation may be to use your existing team or vendor, choose another specialist, narrow the effort, wait, or stop; you can act on it without hiring DeepMoat again. Any later DeepMoat build is optional and separately proposed after the decision.
