The AI Framing Worksheet
A downloadable worksheet that walks through the eight questions to ask before you scope an AI project. Use it on your next project. The questions pull up richer information, surface options you would not have considered, and leave you with a sharper perspective on how to build the solution.

Webinar: Ship Your AI Project, 3 Questions
Three questions before you start your next AI project: what decision are you supporting, which approach is right, and how will you know if it worked. The talk covers System 1 vs. System 2 thinking for AI, the Oracle Test for business impact, the atomic unit and the simplicity test, and how to set success and kill criteria with leading indicators before you build. Includes a baseline section on human baselines and pre-mortem moves for catching failure before it happens.
The projects that shipped, that created real value, that made it to production, all took time early to frame things properly. This is the part most teams skip.
Webinar: Going Beyond AI Evals, Diagnose and Decide
Your evals look good. Is that the whole story? Most teams hit their accuracy targets and still fail to drive adoption. The webinar walks through how to tell the difference between a model problem (keep tuning) and a framing problem (the eval is measuring the wrong thing), using quick diagnostic moves drawn from working on hundreds of AI projects. It then closes the loop: once you have a diagnosis, how to decide whether to continue, pivot, or stop.
Pairs directly with the Diagnose stage of the framework.
In the cohort
The four-week Maven cohort goes deeper than the public material can. Included:
- Eight live sessions across four weeks (two per week, run in different timezones)
- Recorded lessons (audio and video) with lifetime access - (1-2 hours a week)
- A 250+ page reference manual covering ML, GenAI, and agentic systems
- A database of more than 200 AI case studies with framing analysis
- Course-wide worksheets and checklists for diagnostics and pivot decisions
- Office hours with the instructor
