  • August 5, 2025

Artificial Intelligence holds immense promise for driving innovation, but finding your starting point can feel overwhelming. That's exactly why we developed Shift’s AI solutions mapping process, to help companies pinpoint their AI North Star and navigate the path forward.
We start by figuring out where your data lives and how complicated it really is. Using our AI Radar, we work with your team to get a clear picture of your data across operations, admin, customer-facing areas, and risk. This helps us understand what’s realistic and what could make the biggest difference.

Next, we create a focused blueprint that maps your team’s workflows and customer experiences, pointing out where AI can add the most value. Then, we use a simple scoring system to prioritize those opportunities based on how aligned they are with your goals, how easy they are to do, and the impact they’ll have. This gives you a clear, customized roadmap.
But planning isn’t enough. We also assess whether your team is ready to take on AI. We look at leadership support and data systems to available skills and compliance needs. We flag common traps early such as starting projects without a clear goal so you get real results, not just shiny tech.

By the end of our solutions mapping you will leave not only more focused but with a detailed understanding of where your company needs to go, a full report detailing next steps and possible initial solutions, and guidelines of when and how to start. We don't just leave you when we are done. We give you a roadmap and help you to implement a guide to your company’s AI North Star.

At Shift, we believe great technology begins with clarity and ends with measurable impact. Our AI solutions mapping isn’t just a strategy—it's your first step toward confidently harnessing AI for sustainable, scalable growth.

Ready to find your AI North Star? We're here to guide you.
