VERSTA DISCOVER
Three well-founded AI opportunities in one week
Find the ideas with a strong business case and a realistic route to implementation. We work with your team to assess the value, practical requirements and next steps for your most promising opportunities.
€4,500 + VATOne company or business unitLed by a Versta consultant
We aim for three strong cases and recommend only those the assessment supports. The working week starts after preparation, with workshop times agreed in advance.
WHAT YOU TAKE AWAY
What you receive from a Discover assessment
A business case you can examine
Annual benefit estimates, delivery requirements and an assessment of cost and effort. The important assumptions and questions to validate are visible beside the scores.
A clear next decision
An executive summary and a discussion of what to test, prepare or pursue. Decide whether to use your own team or explore external implementation support.
A FOCUSED WORKING WEEK
How we work with your team during the assessment
You do not need an AI strategy or a technical brief to start. A coordinating contact, the people who know the work and available business information are enough to prepare the assessment.
- 01BEFORE THE WEEK
Agree the scope and prepare.
Choose the business areas, gather existing information and book the sessions. We agree participants and dates in the offer.
- 02DURING THE WEEK
Find and evaluate the ideas.
Approximately three focused team workshops, followed by consultant analysis. We examine what would improve, how to start and what still needs to be established.
- 03AT THE CLOSE
Review the priorities together.
Discuss the leading cases, the evidence behind them and what should happen next. Partner search can follow if you choose it, with its timing agreed separately.

05Report draftingExisting solution€12,500/ year · estimate41.2/ 100
The idea
Prepare a monthly operating report from team updates. Source definitions and reporting practices first need to be agreed.
Information retrieval & synthesisNext step
Agree source data and reporting practices.
Illustrative estimates before implementation and running costs. Scores help compare ideas; they do not predict returns or success.
Why knowledge search comes first
Illustrative AI findings supporting the recommendation.
- A useful starting point
Approved source documents give the trial a clear starting point. Retrieval research supports testing answers grounded in relevant sources.
Lewis et al. · 2020 ↗ - A manageable first step
The existing software offers a way to start without building a new system. This is an inference from the fictional case.
- Something to verify
Performance varies by task. The trial needs to establish whether reliable answers release useful time in this team.
HBS · 2023 ↗
Research informs the assessment; it does not validate this fictional company’s benefit estimate.

OPTIONAL IMPLEMENTATION-PARTNER SEARCH
Finding implementation partners suited to your project
When you are ready to explore implementation, we can find up to three potential partners for the leading projects. We match the shortlist to your industry, the type of solution and the experience the work requires.
You decide whether to use this optional step and which partner to choose. An in-house team may also be the right fit. Versta receives no implementation-provider commission.
Industry and process knowledge
Relevant experience with the work, its terminology, exceptions and quality requirements. We look for comparable delivery examples and references.
Technology and integration
The ability to work with your systems, data and access controls. We consider whether an existing product, an integration partner or a specialist developer is the appropriate route.
Delivery and ongoing responsibility
A credible approach to testing, staff adoption, support and maintenance. We examine who would be responsible when the system or the underlying work changes.
Costs and commercial terms
Setup and running costs, licensing, data terms and supplier dependence. The provider must make sense for the scale and economics of the case.
Partner search is an optional final step of Discover, with its timing agreed separately. We record the candidates and why they fit. Detailed proposal comparison, procurement and implementation are separate work.
A DEFINED SCOPE
The scope and price of a Discover assessment
Discover covers one company or a defined business unit, with agreed workshops and deliverables. It includes an initial look at safety and legal considerations. The goal is a useful investment decision, with the follow-up work clearly identified.

Benefit estimates guide the decision. Implementation costs and supplier terms need to be confirmed before committing to an investment.
When a case needs more work
Deeper validation, detailed architecture, supplier-proposal comparison and procurement support can be scoped and priced separately. Implementation is delivered by your own team or chosen provider.
