Turn your knowledge assets into competitive advantage
MarketingSherpa has teamed up with parent company MeclabsAI to produce a research study. We are granting ten AI engineering vouchers worth $7,500 each to eligible companies. The goal is to test this hypothesis: Companies can rapidly build and scale high-value products and solutions by properly combining AI agents with Human experts.
Research questions include:
- What is the ideal ratio between AI agency and human expertise?
- How does this combination shorten time-to-results? (Can a high-value solution or product be built in under 21 days)
- Which knowledge assets (SOPs, checklists, templates, data sets) convert into high-value AI products with the least engineering effort?
We are accepting ten firms for this fully funded pilot. And this study will be published as a Marketing Sherpa Case Study.
Imagine the problems you can solve
Together we will discover the optimal way to leverage the power of AI. We believe that you don't need to risk your data or make “big technology bets”. You can create new solutions and products that drive measurable results. See what other companies are already doing to solve problems like these:
