AI consulting for 15–500 person companies

You want AI to pay off. You're afraid of burning money and time on yet another “implementation”.

Mainbeam rebuilds business workflows around AI for companies without an IT department. We start with a fixed-price quick diagnostic: $1,000 / 3 days — where AI will pay off, and where the budget would burn, we'll tell you straight.

Book a quick diagnostic — $1,000 How we work

Quick diagnostic — fixed price, 3 days, written deliverable. The implementation decision remains entirely yours.

Why pilots never reach the P&L

The typical picture in a company without an IT department

It's not a people problem and not a technology problem. It's a missing process-owner problem: chaotic AI has no business logic.

01

Employees use AI “in the shadows”

Everyone solves personal tasks in private chats with a bot. Knowledge never accumulates, data leaks into consumer tools, and gains never compound.

02

Pilots launch but never scale

The demo is convincing; the real workflow breaks it. Per Gartner, up to 30% of GenAI projects are abandoned right after the pilot.

03

No way to measure the effect

“It feels faster” is not a metric. Without a “before” measurement there is no credible “after” — and no case for the next step.

04

The team resists change

Without clear roles and ground rules, AI reads as a threat. People keep working the old way — and the investment never pays back.

Exhibit 1. Most GenAI pilots fail to reach measurable P&L impact — the gap is organizational, not technological

The size of the gap

The Mainbeam approach

Order first. Then automation. Then scale.

We don't sell “AI implementation.” We rebuild specific workflows for your company's specific economics — step by step, with the impact measured at every gate.

1

Quick diagnostic

3 days · $1,000 · fixed price

Structured interviews plus a workflow and data map. The deliverable is a written document with priorities and potential assessment: what's AI-ready, where the real impact is, what's blocking it, and a first-steps map for the next 90 days. Enough to make an informed decision about the next step.

2

Deep diagnostic & roadmap

3–5 weeks · priced by company size

Deep-dive on the priority workflows: requirements, integrations, risks. The core: per-scenario economics validated on your own data (a mini-pilot on a real sample), with before/after numbers. The output is an implementation roadmap with budget.

3

Implementation & support

per the roadmap · scoped after stage 2

Executing the scenarios with your team or turnkey: routine automation, AI assistants, documents, analytics. We support you to a stable result — metrics are fixed before we start.

Why this works

We believe impact comes from order, not magic

AI sticks in a company without an IT department when every deployment has an owner, a process, and a metric. That's why we start with diagnostics: we measure where time and money leak — only then do we propose tools.

Our methodology is built from hands-on workflow rebuilds in small and mid-sized businesses — no long “transformation programs,” no vendor lock-in.

The diagnostic is led personally by Dzmitry Siasitski — strategy & investment consultant (commercial due diligence, financial modelling, market analysis; formerly Head of Analytics at ConTech SaaS EasyBIM). He is personally accountable for the quality of the report.

“The problem is almost never the model. It's that the process has no owner, the pilot has no metric, and the team has no rules of engagement. We fix exactly that.”— The Mainbeam approach
FAQ

Straight answers

Who runs the diagnostic?

Dzmitry Siasitski — strategy & investment consultant: commercial due diligence, financial modelling, market analysis (7 years); formerly Head of Analytics at ConTech SaaS EasyBIM (2022–2025). He leads it personally — no handoffs to juniors.

Why $1,000? Competitors charge differently

The market for quick AI audits is wide: from free “sessions” to $2,000–15,000. Our price buys 3 days of one consultant's focused work — no “transformation programs,” no upsells after.

Will you push an implementation just to check a box?

No — the diagnostic has to pay for itself. If the next stage isn't needed, you stop after stage 1: we lose the potential contract, but we don't sell what isn't needed. The decision is entirely yours.

Do you do the implementation yourselves?

Yes — stage 3, after the roadmap. During the diagnostic itself we act as advisor, not integrator: we assess workflows, potential and tool choices without pushing anything.

We don't have an IT department. Is that a problem?

Quite the opposite — it's our specialization. We don't require in-house developers: the diagnostic runs on interviews and your existing systems (CRM, documents, messengers). Recommendations are written so your team or any contractor can execute them.

What if the diagnostic shows no impact?

That's also a result: you'll save the budget an unviable implementation would have burned. You still get an honest report with priorities — even if we don't continue.

Are our data safe?

We always work under NDA — signed before any engagement begins. During the quick diagnostic we don't request system access and don't touch confidential data directly — all materials stay with you.

We already tried AI. It didn't work.

That's the typical case — and our specialty. We'll unpack why past attempts stalled, what's worth salvaging, and what should be rebuilt.

How much time will our team need?

For the quick diagnostic: 2–3 interviews of 45–60 minutes plus existing process descriptions. After that — per the roadmap, usually 2–4 hours a week from process owners.

What industries have you worked in?

The team's background is strategy & investment: ConTech SaaS (EasyBIM), media (media-for-equity), edtech, healthcare, IT outsourcing, real-estate development. The methodology is universal: sales, marketing, documents, customer service, back office. If the diagnostic shows AI isn't for you — we'll say so plainly.

How is impact measured?

Baseline metrics are fixed before we start (time per process, cost, error volume) and re-measured after implementation. That's part of the methodology, not an add-on.
