AI and agentic consulting · Lisbon
We help organisations and product teams turn AI into strategy, skills and products. Specialists with a long history in AI research and development, product management and product strategy, who build agentic products of our own.
What we do
From the boardroom strategy to the team that has to make it work on Monday.
A strategy you can act on: where AI and data create value for you, what to build, buy or partner on, and the data foundations it all needs.
Workshops that get teams using AI well, then help it spread: practical skills, safe habits and shared ways of working, from the first team to the whole company.
Workshops on redesigning work with agents at the centre: which processes change, which roles change, and where to start.
For product managers and leaders: how to apply the frontier of AI across your portfolio, and how to build the product vision and strategy around it.

Why us
A long history in this field, on both sides of the work: the research that makes AI possible and the products that make it useful.
Decades of research and development in machine learning and AI, building systems that have to work outside the lab.
A long history in product management, product vision and strategy: deciding what to build, for whom, and why.
We build an agentic product of our own, Host², so what we advise comes from building, not from slides.
We practise what we advise
Pair hosting for short-term rental hosts: the host and an AI agent that knows the house, working as one. Answers in seconds, a house ready on time, five-star stays, and the host's evenings back.

Our story
We host guests in our own houses, in Mafra, north of Lisbon, and in Fuseta, in the Algarve. Answering guests and coordinating cleanings didn't fit our lives with kids, so we applied what we know and started building an agent that does. That became Host².
It is how we approach every client too: start from a real problem, then build.
How we work
Value first, technology second. Every recommendation ties to work that matters.
Agents do the work; people see it, steer it and step in at any moment.
Answers come from your own facts, and each person sees only what is theirs.
