Why palito exists

AI adoption is moving fast.

Tools are in use across teams. Licences are accumulating. And there is no clear picture of which use cases are worth pursuing, which are creating risk, and what to do next.

palito is an independent voice in that conversation. We help you identify what is worth doing, sequence it correctly, and make sure adoption is responsible from the start.

Good AI adoption starts with knowing which problems are actually worth solving with it.

Our approach

Three steps. Correctly sequenced.

Every engagement begins by mapping what is actually in use and which use cases are worth pursuing. Governance is built in from the start, not added at the end.

01

Map what is actually in use

We start by understanding your current AI footprint. What tools are in use, how, what is working, and what is creating risk. This is the foundation for everything that follows.

02

Identify and prioritise the right use cases

For each use case, a clear assessment of business value, feasibility, and risk. A prioritised roadmap with sequenced next steps. What to tackle first and what to leave alone.

03

Implement responsibly

When the path is clear, we build it with governance embedded from the start. Policies, ownership, review cadence, and documentation. Not bolted on at the end.

The starting point
£3,000 from · 1 to 2 weeks · written report

Most engagements start with the Discovery.

A structured 1 to 2 week engagement for leadership teams managing AI adoption. We map what is in use across the organisation, identify which use cases are worth pursuing, and tell you what to prioritise. And what to leave alone.

You leave with a clear picture. A written report follows within five working days.

The difference

Senior counsel without the vendor pitch.

No affiliations, no tool bias. Recommendations that serve you, not a partner programme.

01

Independent.

No vendor affiliations. No tool bias. Recommendations serve you, not a partner programme.

02

Discovery-first.

We start by mapping which AI use cases matter and how to govern them. Not by selling you implementation.

03

Senior, not theoretical.

Over fifteen years inside large organisations making technology change happen. We have done this before.

04

Responsible by design.

Governance, ethics and compliance are built into every recommendation from the start.
