KAIROS

What we do

Two ways to start. One operating system.

We start with product and engineering, because that is where AI investments stall first. The same operating system extends to marketing, sales, operations, and finance.

What we mean by operating system

Kairos is a combination of methodology, measurement, and hands-on software that replaces the ad hoc way your teams work with AI today.

Specs that execute. Evals that survive model swaps. Workflows designed around AI, not retrofitted. Delivered by senior operators, running on the Kairos platform.

Two flagship engagements

A sharp entry point. A flagship transformation.

2 weeks

AI Delivery Diagnostic

The fastest way to understand why your AI investment is not compounding and what to do about it. Structured interviews, workflow mapping, spec and eval review.

What you get

  • AI Failure Stack diagnosis
  • AI Maturity Model placement
  • Prioritized 90-day roadmap
  • 90-minute leadership readout

8 weeks

AI PM Ladder Sprint

The transformation engagement that takes product teams from consuming AI to building AI products that work in production. 6 modules on the Kairos platform. Open enrollment for individual PMs or enterprise cohorts.

What you get

  • 6 modules, live plus async, 8 weeks
  • Kairos platform access for the full cohort
  • Production-ready artifact per participant
  • Open enrollment or enterprise cohorts (4-12)

Outcomes

What your team can do after.

  • Ship AI features without engineering explaining what RAG is for the fifth time.
  • Identify a failing AI system by layer in under 5 minutes.
  • Write specs your engineers can actually build from.
  • Measure AI quality over time with evals that survive model swaps.
  • Move faster with synthetic data that mirrors your production.
  • Make build-versus-buy calls backed by measurement, not gut feel.

For PMs and product leads

See the full curriculum (6 + 4 enterprise)

The first 6 modules ship in the open PM cohort. Modules 7-10 are reserved for Embedded mode and Team Training engagements, where the work runs against your real product.

01

AI-Native Personal Workflow

Rewire how a product leader works, thinks, and ships with AI in the loop.

02

Prompt Architecture and Probabilistic Thinking

Move from one-shot prompting to designed, testable prompt systems.

03

Build as a PM

Ship working prototypes without waiting on engineering.

04

AI Systems Thinking

Design AI features as systems, not features. Inputs, retrieval, reasoning, outputs, feedback.

05

AI Interface Design

Design for probabilistic outputs. Trust, legibility, and graceful failure.

06

Evaluation Systems and Feedback Loops

Measure AI quality over time. Offline evals, online evals, regression prevention.

07

Context Engineering and RAG

Get the right context to the model. Retrieval, chunking, relevance, grounding.

Enterprise track

08

Orchestration and Agent Flows

Compose tools, memory, and planning into reliable agent workflows.

Enterprise track

09

Spec-Driven AI Development

Write executable specs that engineers can ship against. End the translation tax.

Enterprise track

10

Knowledge Graphs and GraphRAG

When vector search hits its limits, structure beats similarity.

Enterprise track

For CTOs and engineering leaders

See the Kairos platform

Prompt Lab

Design, version, and test prompts at scale.

Orchestrator

Compose agents, tools, and workflows.

RAG Builder

Context retrieval without the infrastructure work.

Eval Suite

Offline and online evaluation, regression tracking.

Data Forge

Synthetic datasets that mirror your production.

Knowledge Graph

Structured retrieval for high-precision domains.

Trace

See exactly what happened at every step.

Learn

Every module has a live playground with synthetic data.

For program leaders

See the three tracks

Team Training

8 weeks live plus async

The full program. 10 modules on the Kairos platform, staged capstone, baseline and post-program capability assessments, instructor office hours twice a week plus Slack.

Best for: Teams of 4 to 12 PMs who own AI features on the roadmap.

Executive Track

2 to 3 half-day workshops

For CPOs and VPs. AI systems thinking, evaluation strategy, build-versus-buy. No 8-week commitment.

Best for: Product executives who need the decision frame, not the hands-on build.

Embedded Mode

8 to 12 weeks

Kairos instructors co-work on a real roadmap feature. The capstone becomes a production-ready feature. Premium tier.

Best for: Teams that want accelerated delivery, not just training.
