Pilot purgatory is real.
MIT found 95% of enterprise GenAI pilots deliver zero measurable P&L impact. You have twelve impressive demos and nothing in production. That’s not a strategy — that’s a science fair.
95% of pilots stall — MIT
AI transformation consultancy
95% of AI pilots fail. Yours won’t.
Delzey takes enterprise AI from demo to P&L. Vendor-neutral advice, senior-only teams, and fixed fees agreed before we start — not billable hours.
Free 20-point diagnostic. No deck. No junior analysts. Ever.
01 — The problem
Enterprise AI has a shipping problem.
Your advisors are selling their own stack.
Model vendors now run consulting arms. Cloud providers embed “free” engineers. The Big 4 rent you their pre-built agents. Everyone advising you has a platform to push. We don’t.
0 platforms to sell you
Regulators stopped waiting for you.
State AI laws are already in force, EU AI Act deadlines are on the calendar, and Gartner expects 40% of agentic projects to be canceled by 2027 — mostly over weak risk controls. Governance is no longer a slide. It’s a deadline.

02 — How it works
Three steps. No fourth step where it quietly dies.
-
Assess
Step 1: Audit everything. Keep what works.
We score your pilots, data foundations, and risk posture in weeks, not quarters. You get a ranked portfolio: what to ship, what to fix, what to kill.
Weeks 1–2
-
Ship
Step 2: From pilot to production, on a fixed fee.
A senior-only team takes your highest-ROI use case live — integrated, measured, and owned by your people. No pyramid of analysts learning on your dime.
Weeks 3–12 · fixed fee

Govern & Compound
Step 3: Make it safe. Then make it better.
We stand up your AI governance program on the NIST AI RMF, then stay on to operate, measure, and improve. Production is the starting line, not the finish.

03 — Why Delzey
No logo wall. An open playbook instead.
Delzey is a new practice. Until our first clients let us name them, we won’t pad this page with invented logos — here’s what you can verify today instead.
The method is public
The 20-point diagnostic is free to run. The engagement playbooks are published end to end. Ten essays of field notes show the thinking. Judge the work before you pay for it.
Structurally de-risked
Fixed fees, stated up front. Audit fees credited toward the engagement that follows — worst case, you keep the roadmap. A hard cap of two audits a month keeps delivery senior-only.
Nothing to sell but judgment
No reseller margins, no model to push, no implementation army to keep billable. We referee vendors; they compete. The recommendation is the product.
04 — Pricing
Start free. Scale on proof.
