01 // How Baseline works

What used to take months now takes days.

WITHOUT BASELINE
6-week research timelines
AI experiments that don't stick
Findings buried in slide decks
Shipping features without confidence
WITH BASELINE
Insights delivered in days
Systems your team owns and runs
Research that shapes your roadmap
Building what users actually need

03 // The problem

The bottleneck has shifted.

In 2020, building was the slow part. Interfaces took months. Teams waited on design and dev.

Now AI generates them in hours. Execution isn't the constraint anymore.

But knowing what to build, what users actually need, what to cut, what's worth the investment... that still takes real work. Most teams skip it and end up shipping fast in the wrong direction.

That's the harder problem. That's what I focus on.

07 // Common Questions

Everything else you might want to know.

If your question isn't here, just ask.

What makes you different from an agency?

You work directly with me. No account managers, no junior staff doing the actual work. I scope it, I do it, I own it. You get senior-level execution without paying for overhead.

How involved do I need to be?

That depends on the engagement. Research requires some of your time for interviews and reviews. AI workflows need a few hours per week during implementation. Advisory is designed to flex around your schedule.

Do you only do project work?

No. The advisory retainer is designed for ongoing partnership. Some clients start with a project and transition to advisory. Others go straight to a monthly relationship.
