PROCESS AND MODULES
What does the AI Design Sprint process for automation look like?
The Process Automation AI Design Sprint™ module follows a structured timeline. It begins with three initial phases: AI Mapping, Framing, and Concept Development. These phases offer three options to kickstart your next AI project, helping to identify processes suitable for AI automation and generate AI solution concepts. Following these, the Tech Check and Prototype phases come into play. During these stages, AI experts thoroughly evaluate the workshop-generated solutions, creating an initial prototype roadmap and proceeding with its development in the subsequent step. We explain everything more in detail here.
We will teach you all the AI Design Sprint™ modules necessary to run your own workshops. Additionally, we’ll explain the essential steps for the Tech Modules, which are typically handled by an AI subject matter expert. Set aside the technology and discover how the AI Design Sprint™ bridges business and AI thinking to create additional value.

TESTIMONIALS
What our clients say
We’ve trained many teams and clients all around the world. Here’s what they have to say…
Amazing workshop training experience fully remotely
Martin Backes and his team are undoubtedly skilled and qualified innovation practitioners who know what they are talking about. They gave us a great foundation in facilitation techniques and Design Sprint methodology. The quality of their teaching and facilitation and the attention to detail in the way they present their approach set them apart. There is no doubt the methodology works and it’s impressive that we could do it all remotely without a hitch. We would definitely recommend their service to everyone who wants to change their way of working and foster team collaboration with innovative ways of problem-solving, decision-making, all while de-risking strategic projects.
Working with Martin Backes and his studio was great. Awesome results!
We hired him to direct and consult us in our vision of becoming a worldwide-leading audio product. He used some custom-made Sprints to effectively align the Blinkist stakeholder team on the company’s brand and supported us in the process of becoming an audio-first company. The workshops were highly engaging and super productive. I was impressed by the amount of output we generated as a group, what would have taken months, took days. The Sprints gave our project the right boost to then go ahead and execute, bringing it to market only a few months later! In the end, we were even awarded the German Design Award for this project.
Highly recommend Martin for any training, or workshop facilitation role
I am happy to recommend Martin for his excellent work as a UX & Usability teacher, trainer, and workshop facilitator at XDi.
