1,200 AI use cases.
Now your playbook.
Melitta. KAEFER. Böllhoff. Ritter Sport. We've shipped 1,200+ AI use cases into production for the German mid-market over 8+ years. The method that got them there is now yours — applied to your business in one day, with ROI modeled in euros.
We compress 1,200 production use cases into your five highest-leverage AI bets.
Your actual workflows, your real stakeholders, your data questions, your business problems. Not a generic AI lecture.
A ranked set of AI initiatives with ROI math, a 6-month roadmap, and the one bet you should ship first.
What worked at scale, applied to your context.
Five bets with leverage. The rest cut.
ROI in euros. Not in vibes.
A path forward your team can walk.
Business case. Engineering reality. One table.
Most AI workshops separate the two questions that matter most: where is the measurable value, and can the use case actually work in your data, your systems, and your process reality? We answer both. At the same table. At the same time.
We don't want you leaving with ten nice ideas. We want one use case clear enough to deserve a Q1 budget line.
We start with your processes, your decision-makers, and the friction points your CFO already feels.
We tell you which use cases don't deserve workshop time. Honestly. To your face.
The output has to work inside your company. Not just sound good in a deck.
Connects strategy, growth, and the AI value your CFO can model in euros.
Drops AI into existing IT landscapes — without breaking security, integration, or your weekend.
When the workshop produces a defensible use case, you don't hit a wall. We can move it into a 4-week proof of value, a custom build, or a full growth program. One company, one bill of materials.
These projects taught us the method. Now you get the method.
Eight years inside large AI programs. Compressed into one focused day, written for your business.
Real outcomes. Real customers. Real numbers.
Three production wins we shipped with our customers. The workshop is your structured way into the same method — compact, in one day, fitted to your context.
2,000+ employees use AI in their daily work — with measurable impact in marketing, service, and production. What carried the rollout: a clear use-case prioritization along the value chain, and an adoption strategy that built buy-in instead of forcing it.
"Their expertise and creativity led to a solution that resonates across the entire company."
Scaled past 1,000 active users in under 6 months — no adoption crisis, no shadow IT. What made the scale possible: a roadmap signed off by management and a governance model that built data protection and compliance in from day one.
"With Plotdesk we scaled to over 1,000 users in record time. Adoption is outstanding."
One week after kickoff, the use case was in production — 40,000+ articles fully indexed, with a measurable impact on quote turnaround in technical sales. What makes one-week deployment possible: clear prioritization of the single biggest pain point. Not ten use cases in parallel.
"Roll-out completed within a week. First prototypes within minutes."
Every one of these wins started with the same three questions: Where is the highest leverage? Which use case first? What does the roadmap look like? Exactly the questions we answer in your workshop.
Five concrete outcomes. Acted on Monday.
No deck. No "we'll look into it." Five concrete outcomes your leadership team can act on the next morning.
Ranked by ROI
For each: description, effort, estimated annual ROI, prerequisites. In writing. Defensible to your board.
When each use case ships
Quarterly roadmap with owners, resources, and stakeholders. So everyone knows what comes next.
Where to start first
A written, personal recommendation from us: which use case delivers the first measurable ROI in 4 weeks — and why this one.
Governance starter
Data-processing templates, EU AI Act mapping, role-and-rights concept. Operational, not academic.
Aligned leadership team
Management, IT, and the business units leave with the same understanding. End of endless strategy loops between departments.
The workshop is more than the workshop day.
We prep before. We work hard during. We deliver the report that makes the difference after.

What our customers say. In their own words.
Real customers. Real results. No marketing speak.
Their expertise and creativity led to a solution that resonates across the entire company.
With Plotdesk we scaled to over 1,000 users in record time. Adoption is outstanding.
Plotdesk frees up our team, raises our close rate and produces happy customers.
We'd rather walk away than waste your day.
Plain talk now saves us both pain later.
This works if you:
- Own management, innovation, digital, or IT — with the authority to actually decide
- Run 50+ FTEs and real business processes where AI can move the P&L
- Are willing to put your real pain points on the table
- Have time to act on the output — internally or with us
- See AI as a strategy question, not an IT procurement line item
Skip this if you:
- Want ChatGPT-for-employees training (we don't teach that here)
- Need a "we did a workshop" line for the board with no follow-through
- Love 80-slide decks more than 5-page action plans
- Expect a deployed AI system by 5 PM (that's the proof of value, not this)
- Believe AI prints money without clean data and clean processes
Questions you'd ask if we were already on the call.
Consultants leave you a deck. We leave you a plan with ROI modeled in euros — and the team to ship it. Strategy and execution from one company, instead of handing strategy off to the next department. We speak business and tech because we build both.
That's often when it pays off the most. Licenses without a use-case strategy usually lead to low adoption and unclear ROI. In the workshop we figure out where your existing tools actually create impact — and where you need extra building blocks.
A 60-min briefing call, a stakeholder survey (15 minutes per person), and a few existing process, data, and tool overviews. Nothing more. We come prepared — you don't need to do consultant homework.
No. This is for leadership and decision-makers. We can run user training for your teams separately — but this here is the strategic reset, not employee onboarding.
4 to 10 people. The right ones: management, IT, innovation, and whichever business units have the most to gain. Fewer than 4 makes it a meeting. More than 10 dilutes the depth.
Within 5 working days: the report, the roadmap, the governance starter, and a written "where to start" recommendation. After 4 weeks: a 60-min follow-up call. If you want us to ship the first use case, we offer a Proof of Value: four weeks, one production use case, fixed price. If not, you keep everything and run it internally.
Usually 2–3 weeks from the discovery call. Remote-only means no travel logistics — we're flexible on dates.
That's what the discovery call is for. We qualify together. If we're not convinced we can deliver, we say so — instead of selling you a workshop that won't.
30 minutes on a call.
Then we both know.
You talk. We talk. Honest assessment. If we don't think the workshop fits, we say so — instead of selling you one. You speak directly with a Plotdesk strategist. Never a sales rep.
