AI That Actually
Ships to Production.
The Advisory Practice
The Pilot Worked.
Now What?
Most teams have run an AI experiment. A few have run three. Almost none have shipped something that survived long enough to matter — because the hard part is never the demo.

Where Teams Get Stuck
No Clear Owner After the Pilot
Vendor built it, consultant left, lives in Notion. No one accountable for keeping it alive or scaling it further.
Fragmented, Costly Workflows
4 steps instead of 1. Error-prone repetitive work that burns hours and still generates mistakes your team has to catch manually.
Tool Sprawl, No System
ChatGPT, Make, Zapier — none of them talking to each other. Expensive subscriptions, duplicated effort, zero coherence.
Our Promise
"We help pioneering companies turn AI ambition into lasting advantage—identifying the opportunities worth pursuing, building the systems that matter, and mobilizing the right ecosystem to make adoption stick."— Josh Kriger, Co-Founder, Edge of AI Advisory Services
How We Work
Embed, don't consult
We work inside your team's process, not above it — real systems, not strategy memos.
Build for adoption first
The best AI system is the one your team actually uses. We design for the human before the stack.
Credited to what you build
Your $5,900 Edge Audit fee credits directly to any implementation engagement. No sunken cost.

Business Development · Robotics
We built a BD function from scratch. Then we handed it back.
A robotics company needed a qualified commercial pipeline — not a list of names, but a governed structure with documented qualification logic, evidenced outreach, and clear prioritization by commercial route. We built that function from zero and delivered results that held to a consistent, defensible standard.
Proof of progress
What changed
The client now has a repeatable BD function with a documented qualification standard — not a list, but a governed pipeline with clear ownership and commercial logic.
Most AI projects don't fail because the technology doesn't work. They fail because no one made it the team's job to keep it working.
A vendor hands off a system. A consultant writes the strategy. A pilot runs for eight weeks and generates a deck that lives in Google Drive. And then the team is back to doing things the old way — because nothing anchored the change to how the business actually runs.
We build differently. We start by finding the one or two places where AI genuinely changes the math — not where it's interesting, where it compounds. We build those systems inside your process, with your team, so the knowledge stays when we leave. We measure adoption, not delivery.
The companies winning with AI right now aren't the ones with the most tools. They're the ones who made one system work — and then made it the foundation for the next one. That's what we help you build.
Identify the opportunities worth pursuing. Build the systems that matter. Mobilize the ecosystem that makes adoption stick.
The Engagement Path
Clear Scope.
Defensible Pricing.
One fixed-fee diagnostic. A build scoped to what it's worth. An optional retainer only if you want it. You keep everything we build.

Edge Audit
$5,900 100% credited to your buildA structured discovery that surfaces exactly where AI can help — and what to ignore. Before you spend serious money on a build, know what you are building and why. Every dollar of the $5,900 credits directly toward your implementation — so if you engage for a Build Sprint, the audit costs you nothing net.
Then build
30 days standard
up to 12 weeks for Transformation
Build Sprint
Your $5,900 audit investment applies in full toward whichever Build Sprint you select — making the diagnostic effectively cost-neutral when you move to implementation.
We implement the systems the Audit identified. Real integrations, real documentation — not slides. Scoped precisely to what you need. You own everything we build: code, systems, and decisions.

Edge Care
An optional ongoing partnership to operate, measure, and extend what we built. Not every engagement needs one. We'll tell you honestly if yours does — and what it would actually cost given your scope.

From listening to building
Running AI in your business and ready to go deeper than theory? That's exactly what Edge of AI Advisory Services is built for.
Audience & Reach
250,000+
followers across platforms.
A practitioner audience — founders, operators, and investors who listen because the conversations are substantive. Built over years, not campaigns.
The same team that built this audience advises your AI strategy — which means client work benefits from direct access to the founders, investors, and operators we have in our network and on the show.
The Team
Operators Who've
Done It Before.
Co-Founder
Josh Kriger
Josh brings 25+ years of consulting experience to every engagement — grounded in emerging technology and a career-long commitment to working at the frontier of what's next. As a full-time founder, he has built the Edge of Company ecosystem from the ground up, including The Edge of Show, one of the longest-running AI and Web3 interview series in the space.
His advisory work draws on deep pattern recognition developed through 500+ episodes, 35+ global events, and direct relationships with the founders, investors, and operators shaping where AI is heading. He brings that network and that knowledge into every client engagement.
Clients benefit from a practitioner who has operated across strategy, implementation, media, and business development — not a generalist consultant, but a founder who has shipped the work and lived with the results.
Partner & AI Systems Lead
Audrey Pichy
Audrey leads AI systems design and client delivery across Edge of AI engagements. With a career-long background in emerging technology and startups, she brings the operational rigor that turns strategic direction into systems teams actually adopt and own.
Her focus is on Client Excellence — ensuring every engagement delivers what was promised, on time and with full documentation. She specializes in AI system architecture, workflow mapping, and enabling client teams so they're more capable at handoff than they were at kickoff.
Audrey has led project delivery across legal, media, Web3, and professional services sectors. Her approach is grounded in project management discipline and a builder's instinct: prototype fast, document thoroughly, and never leave a team dependent on us to keep things running.
Team Capabilities
Strategy & Opportunity Identification
Diagnosing where AI creates genuine leverage — and where it doesn't. We've seen enough implementations to know the difference.
AI Systems Design & Architecture
Building workflows that fit how your team actually operates, with clear ownership, documentation, and adoption baked in from day one.
Business Development & Outreach
AI-augmented BD functions: qualified pipeline, governed outreach, measurement infrastructure, and activation programs across affiliate, partner, and investor channels.
Media, Content & Events
Thought leadership infrastructure, content strategy, and event presence — including production, sponsorship, and media partnership development.
Client Excellence & Project Delivery
Rigorous delivery management across complex, multi-workstream engagements. From kickoff to handoff — nothing dropped, nothing undocumented.
Network of Experts
Beyond the core team, Edge of AI clients benefit from a curated network of 100+ AI practitioners, researchers, and operators developed through five years of producing one of the sector's most substantive interview series.
When a client engagement requires specialized depth — a particular sector, a specific technology stack, a domain-specific compliance perspective — we draw on those relationships to put the right expertise in the room. This isn't a contractor bench. These are people we've had real conversations with, whose thinking we trust, and who know us.
