Synapse Fusion AI Value Briefing

Synapse Fusion · The AI practice of Synapse

Turn AI spend into hours back.

Synapse Fusion helps organisations get measurable value from the AI they already pay for. We build that capability in your own executives, managers and teams, and we measure the result in hours and euros.

New · Executive Insights

See where leadership time goes, and what AI gives back.

Executive Insights is a module of the Fusion AI Value Tracker. Leaders log their own time-consuming work and can ask the AI coach for a personal plan for it.

  • A personal AI plan for each task: what AI can prepare, what you still check and decide, and a ready prompt for the AI assistant your organisation approves.
  • Try one idea for two weeks, then record your hours before and after. Only results you time and record before and after count as time given back.
  • A leadership view in totals: where leaders’ hours go and what has been given back. It shows totals, not one person’s entries, and no ranking.

The problem

Most AI pilots never pay back.

Companies have bought the licences and run the pilots. Very few can say what their AI is worth. The gap is rarely the technology. It is that the people who own the work were never shown how to use it, shape it and measure it.

95%of enterprise generative-AI pilots showed no measurable P&L impact in MIT NANDA’s 2025 study: a learning gap, not a model gap.
LicencesAI already sits inside the tools you pay for. Most teams have never been shown where, or what it is good for.
Art. 4The EU AI Act asks organisations to support AI literacy for the staff who use AI (Article 4, applying since February 2025, as amended in 2026).

What you get

Four results your finance team can see.

How we get there is our own method, delivered inside each engagement. What you see is the result.

1 · ClarityKnow where AI can pay backA clear, costed view of where AI can return time and money across your organisation, built with your people and in line with EU rules.
2 · DisciplineInvest where the numbers sayEvery AI initiative has a business case before money is committed, and results your finance team can audit.
3 · CapabilityYour people, building with AIExecutives, managers and front-line teams who can use AI, shape it and build with it on their real work.
4 · MomentumValue that keeps compoundingAdoption that keeps growing after we leave, owned by your leadership and visible in your numbers.

Track record

Participation beyond headcount within three months, and leadership took ownership.

In a ~200-person organisation at a global technology company, Jacques led an AI enablement programme that gave leadership a costed map of where AI could buy back time and cut spend. On the strength of those results, he was asked to extend it to an organisation of about 400 people.

Founder’s experience

Published research

Jacques co-authored a published technical disclosure on measuring the real productivity impact of AI tools: the net time people actually save once the hidden cost of checking and correcting AI output is counted. It is the same question every Synapse Fusion engagement answers for your organisation.

On-device Measurement of Impact of Artificial Intelligence Tools on Productivity, Technical Disclosure Commons, December 2025.

Who it is for

Every level, in the right order.

Executives

“Separate AI value from noise, and decide where to bet.”

Middle managers

“Turn AI into workflows my team actually uses, with numbers.”

Front-line teams

“Build my own AI tool, and get time back from tomorrow.”

Working with us

From a first conversation to measured results.

Fixed fees, stage-gated, and part of our fee tied to the value measured. You can stop after any stage.

What you keep

When we leave, the system stays.

VisibilityA live log of time-consuming workEvery task, its hours and its yearly cost, in one place.
ActionA plan anyone can followOptions and step-by-step guides a beginner can use, ready to hand to the AI assistant you already use. A person always checks the result.
ProofA finance view of valueValue found versus value delivered, and the hours given back.
PeoplePeople who carry it onTrained champions, a weekly working group, and a ready-to-run hackathon kit.

How we work

We don’t fish for you. We teach your people to fish.

AI is an enabler, not a replacer. Your people build; we teach, coach and measure, so the capability stays in your organisation instead of leaving with a consultant.

No technical skills needed. Anyone can log a task that eats their time, get a plan they can follow step by step, and let the AI they already have do much of the work. Your people direct it and check it.

  • Your data stays yours. Tools and data rules agreed with your IT team before anything starts.
  • Tool-neutral. We work with what you already have, including European options where sovereignty matters.
  • People first. We never use AI to monitor or rate individuals.

Questions

What leaders ask us first.

What happens in the AI Value Briefing?

It is a conversation, not a pitch. You tell us what concerns you about AI: cost, risk, adoption, or what it means for your people. We listen, respond with practical solutions and, where it makes sense, propose a path forward that fits your organisation.

Will you build the tools for us?

Your people build them, with their AI assistant doing much of the work and us coaching. For bigger builds we prepare the brief your engineers or a partner work from. That is why the value lasts after we leave.

Which AI tools do you work with?

The ones you already pay for, first. We are tool-neutral, and can include European options where sovereignty matters.

How do you measure value?

Realised hours and spend against a baseline, reported to finance. We never mix what could be saved with what was actually saved.

Can you share your method?

Our frameworks are proprietary. Clients receive them as part of an engagement, and keep everything their people build.

In which languages, and where?

French and English, on site or remote.

You’re already paying for AI. Let’s make it pay you back.
