The practice

Three ways to engage Ajna Research

Each engagement is private, bespoke, and designed for one principal. We do not productize. We attend to your mandate.

01
Advisory

The standing retainer

A continuous advisory relationship. We attend your mandate, week by week, for as long as the engagement serves you. The work evolves with the context - never static, never on autopilot.

  • Weekly intelligence dispatch, calibrated to your sector and decisions
  • On-call access for decision-critical moments
  • AI systems maintained and adapted as your context evolves
  • Absolute confidentiality - no names, no third-party indexes

02
Build

The bespoke system

A private artificial intelligence, designed end to end for one user - you. Not a tool you configure - a system that was built for you, trained on your world, and never shared with anyone else.

Unless you wish us to, of course - we can link it to your enterprise or team as well.

  • Discovery: deep-intake on the mandate and decision architecture
  • Architecture: system design tailored to one principal
  • Build: fully private, never productized, never reused
  • Handover: documentation and standing support option
Duration
8–16 weeks
Best for
Executives with a specific, defined intelligence problem

  • Scoped intake and precise definition of the research question
  • Primary and AI-augmented secondary research
  • Executive-length document: clear, not padded
  • One round of refinement included

A note on process

Every engagement begins with a short intake conversation - not a sales call. We want to understand your mandate before proposing anything. If the work is not a fit, we will say so plainly. If it is, we will tell you exactly what we would build and why.
