Every company needs an AI strategy leader.
When you hire a fractional CAO from Avolis, you're not getting a solo advisor. You're getting a strategic leader backed by an entire AI team. Every tool, every engineer, every playbook we've built is at their disposal, and yours.
AI without strategy is just expensive experimentation.
Most companies are buying AI tools with no plan. They're drowning in pilots that never scale, wasting budget on solutions that don't fit, and falling behind competitors who have someone at the helm.
A Chief AI Officer doesn't just evaluate technology. They align AI to revenue, operations, and growth.
The question isn't whether you need one. It's whether you can afford to wait.
How the engagement works.
A structured, transparent process that delivers value from week one.
- Week 1-2
Discovery & Assessment
We embed with your leadership team to understand your operations, tech stack, and strategic priorities. You get a clear picture of where AI can drive the most value.
- Week 3-4
Strategy & Roadmap
Your fractional CAO delivers a prioritized AI roadmap with quick wins and long-term plays, complete with budget estimates, timelines, and success metrics.
- Ongoing
Implementation & Oversight
We lead the execution: managing vendors, training teams, and iterating on deployments. You get C-suite AI leadership without the C-suite price tag.
- Quarterly
Optimize & Scale
Regular strategy reviews ensure your AI initiatives evolve with your business. We identify new opportunities, sunset what's not working, and double down on what is.
The difference is who's still in the room after launch.
A consultant hands you a deck and leaves. An agency ships a project and moves on. A fractional CAO owns the outcome across the whole arc.
Executive AI leadership, without the overhead.
A full-time Chief AI Officer commands $300K-$500K+. Our fractional model gives you the same strategic firepower at a fraction of the cost.
Skip the 6-month executive search. Your CAO is in your leadership meetings and delivering value within the first two weeks.
Your CAO arrives with Avolis engineers, playbooks, and tooling at their disposal. One seat at your table, a full bench behind it.
What leaders ask before they start.
They own AI at the executive level: setting priorities tied to revenue and operations, building the roadmap, leading implementation, managing vendors, and training your team. They sit in your leadership meetings and defend their calls, the same as any other executive, just not on a full-time payroll.
A consultant hands you a deck and leaves. An agency ships a project and moves on. A fractional CAO owns outcomes across the whole arc: the decisions, the builds, the training, and the accountability afterward. If something underperforms, it's their job to fix it, not yours to chase them.
Engagements are scoped to your stage, but every client gets an embedded executive rhythm: standing leadership check-ins, working sessions with the people closest to the workflows, and availability when a decision can't wait. It feels like an executive on your team, not a vendor checking in.
No. We build with the team you have. Part of the engagement is developing in-house AI experts from your existing staff, so the systems keep improving after we step back.
By then the roadmap's first phase is live and your team is trained on it. Most clients move to a sustain rhythm: monthly optimization, quarterly strategy reviews, and new opportunities scoped as your operations evolve. The goal is a team that runs AI without us, with us still accountable for results.
I worked with John to build out a full Sales AI system for my clients, and the results have been nothing short of transformational.
