HOWTOFLY / AI-AUGMENTED ORGANISATIONS
HowToFly analyses your strategy, your workflows and the skills of your people. Then we find, build and roll out the tools and AI-powered workflows that help them work faster, better and more cost-efficiently.
We don't replace people. We help them fly.
STEP ONE: YOUR STRATEGY
Most AI programmes start with a tool and go looking for a problem. We start with your strategy, vision and ambitions. Then we map how work really gets done and which skills your people bring, so every tool and AI-powered workflow we add pushes in the direction you chose.

Workflows where AI helps most: 42
AI shouldn't take the work out of people's hands. It should make those hands far more capable. One by one, and all together.
How we work
Five steps take you from your strategy to people who use AI in their daily work.
What does your strategy need most? We find the goals where AI can make the biggest difference.
We look at how your teams work today and spot the tasks where AI helps most.
We pick the existing AI tools that fit the job. No need to reinvent what already works.
When nothing on the market does the job, we build the tool ourselves.
We train your people on their own work, so they keep catching long after we leave.

The Aunt Linda test
No worries. Here’s the WhatsApp-style conversation I had with my Aunt Linda. She asks the questions everyone else is thinking. I explain it without the jargon.

The shift
Many AI plans start as a cost-cutting exercise or a shopping list of licences. The result is often a few pilots, a few worried people and very little change. We start with your strategy and your people, and build AI into the work so your teams get better at what they do.
Why us
We work with large enterprises such as Mars Snacking, Kellogg, UCB and P&G, and with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Big or small, we know how strategy, people and technology meet on a real Monday morning.
We've united R&D teams behind one vision after an integration, and turned it into every team plan and every personal development plan. We know where it gets difficult.
We design and build our own AI tools and platforms, for research, idea tournaments and coaching, and use them live in sessions with hundreds of participants. If we suggest a tool, we've used it ourselves.
We hand over tools, workflows and skills your people own and understand, so the gains keep coming after we've gone.
LARGE ENTERPRISES AND SMEs
Good questions
We find out what your strategy needs most and where AI can help. We pick the right existing tools, and build custom ones only when nothing fits. Then we teach your people to use them in their own work, so they work faster, better and at lower cost.
That's not our approach. We use AI to augment people, not replace them. Each person gets tools that take over routine work and strengthen their skills, so your organisation gets more out of the talent it already has.
It breaks a big goal into tasks and suggests who is best placed to do each one, across teams and countries. It also collects ideas from everyone and shows progress. AI does the organising. People decide.
Both. We use existing tools wherever they do the job. We only build custom tools when nothing fits, such as a research platform that replaces months of outside consultancy work.
Large enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that want AI to make a real difference to their strategy, not just run a few pilots. We've worked with global food, pharma, consumer goods and energy companies, and with small specialist businesses.
With a single working session. Bring one strategic ambition and one workflow that takes up too much of your team's time. We'll show where AI could make your people faster and better, and what a first tool could look like. Email gilles.rossou@howtofly.ai to book it.
