Is AI right for my business?

It depends. Not on how big your company is, but on where it's losing time or money. If you have repetitive processes tying up skilled people, data no one analyzes, or a team doing avoidable manual work — probably yes. The first step is always a diagnosis: we understand your context, map the inefficiencies, and honestly tell you where AI makes sense and where it doesn't.

How long does an AI project take?

An MVP or proof-of-concept: 2-4 weeks. More structured projects: 2-3 months. We work in agile — weekly sprints, regular demos, zero black-box effect. You see progress from day one, not after months of silence.

How much does an AI consulting project cost?

We don't have a price list — automating email sorting for a 5-person team is different from building an AI-powered management system. Cost depends on what needs to be built and how complex it is. What we always do: free first call to understand the problem, then a clear quote with scope, timeline, and costs — before any code is written.

How does the work process work?

Free introductory call — we understand the problem and context. Analysis and concrete proposal with scope, timeline, and costs. If we go ahead, we work in agile: weekly sprints, demos of what works, continuous feedback. You don't receive a final deliverable after months of silence — you see progress week by week.

AI works
when you start from the right problem.

We find where your business loses time or money.

Then we build the tool that fixes it.

Only what's needed. Nothing more.

No automated quotes. Just the right diagnosis.

What we build, works every day.

The hard part isn't building. It's knowing what to build.

About Us

The AI and beyond was born from Leonardo Sarti Magi's experience: an AI consultant and software developer with a direct approach to solving real problems.

The AI and beyond is a lean structure where human expertise and AI tools work together on every project. No departments, no bureaucracy — just the right people and tools for the problem at hand.

When you work with us, you're not working with a freelancer doing everything alone. You're working with a system where every analysis, every automation, every deliverable goes through AI tools that we ourselves use every day. It's our way of proving AI works: we use it before recommending it.

Our starting point is always the same: where are you losing time, money, or control over a process? From there, we figure out if AI is the right answer. Sometimes it is. Sometimes it's not. Either way, you have a clear picture before a single line of code is written.

We've worked on systems where errors are costly: industrial maintenance, regulatory compliance, business-critical applications. This taught us one thing: technology that works is technology that disappears from daily life — no one has to think about it.

Services

What we do

Every business has processes that work poorly, cost too much, or steal time from the wrong people. We find them and fix them — with AI where it makes sense, with other tools where it doesn't. Sometimes the right combination of existing tools, configured well, changes everything.

These aren't rigid categories. They're the most common starting points. Your project might cross one, or several. And it doesn't always require building something complex: often the biggest value comes from the right tools, put together the right way. We'll figure it out together on the first call.

Featured Project

V-Move CareBot

Autonomous guide robot for people with disabilities in marinas

V-Move CareBot is an AI-powered assisted mobility system designed to ensure accessibility and safety in port environments. It integrates computer vision, LIDAR sensors, and autonomous navigation to guide people with motor or visual disabilities.

Presented at the Viareggio Robotics Festival, the project garnered national press attention and was featured in an article by La Nazione, highlighting the impact of artificial intelligence in the accessibility and nautical sectors.

The Problem

How much time do you waste every day?

2 hours every Monday

Collecting data from 4 different Excel sheets, manual formatting, endless revisions

Manual follow-ups

Clients lost due to delays, no tracking, emails one by one

Audit panic

Scattered documents, paper checklists, no visibility on status

How We Work

A transparent process

From the first call to delivery, here's how we work.

1

We Listen

First, we understand the context. We talk to those who work, not just those who decide. We map processes, identify bottlenecks, and define objectives together.

We Analyze

We study the data, workflows, and tools already in use. We assess where AI can have real impact and where it can't. Not everything needs artificial intelligence.
