What's the AI use case?

A few sentences are enough. We'll come back with the right questions — not a generic discovery template.

We typically respond within one business day.

What happens next

  • 01

    We reply within one business day

    A real response from the Lastmile team with specific questions about your use case — not a templated 'thanks for getting in touch'.

  • 02

    30-minute discovery call

    No slides, no pitch deck. We listen, ask hard questions, and tell you honestly whether Outpace is the right fit. Often the answer is 'not yet, here's what to do first'.

  • 03

    Scoped engagement memo

    Within a week of the call: a written memo with scope, timing, owners, and price. Fund, defer, or kill — your decision, with everything you need to make it.

We're best-fit when you have

  • An AI use case stalled between pilot and production
  • A board asking for a defensible AI governance posture
  • An audit or regulator query you can't answer in 24 hours
  • A complex environment that needs embedded engineering, not a framework hand-off

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

We primarily work with enterprise and mid-market organisations — typically companies with 50+ employees that have real operational complexity where AI can make a meaningful difference. We're not the right fit for early-stage startups looking for a basic chatbot, but if you're a growing company with genuine AI ambitions, we'd love to talk.

It depends on scope, but we move fast. A focused AI strategy engagement typically runs 2-4 weeks. An automation or custom AI development project usually takes 6-10 weeks from kickoff to production. Our AI-native delivery model means we consistently deliver in a fraction of the time traditional consultancies quote.

Yes. While we're based in Melbourne, we work with organisations across Australia and internationally. Most of our collaboration happens remotely, with on-site visits for discovery workshops when it adds value.

A 30-minute conversation where we listen to your challenges, ask questions to understand your situation, and share relevant experience. We'll give you an honest assessment of where AI could help — and where it might not. There's no pitch, no proposal, and no obligation. The goal is to figure out if there's a genuine fit.

We structure engagements around outcomes, not hours. Depending on the project, this might be a fixed-price engagement tied to defined deliverables, an outcome-based model where our compensation is linked to measurable results, or a retainer for ongoing advisory and optimisation. We'll discuss the right structure during our discovery conversation — every client's situation is different.
