PROCESS AND MODULES
What does the AI Design Sprint for products and services look like?
The Product and Services AI Design Sprint™ module follows a specific timeline. The initial phases, AI Mapping and Concept Development, are two different options to start your next AI project. These phases help uncover valuable product opportunities and create AI solution concepts. Next come the Tech Check and Prototype phases. During these stages, AI experts carefully evaluate the workshop-generated solutions to create an initial prototype roadmap and develop the prototype. We explain everything more in detail here.
You will learn every AI Design Sprint™ module required to conduct workshops on your own from us. We’ll also explain the key steps for the Tech Modules, which are typically handled by an AI subject matter expert. Put the technology aside and learn how business and AI thinking can be combined to create additional value for your organization with this Sprint framework.

TESTIMONIALS
What our clients say
We’ve trained teams and clients worldwide. 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. Martin has a talent for explaining complex concepts in a clear and simple way, making it easy for students to understand.
