AI training for teams

AI training that has to stick.

Bespoke workshops and ongoing advisory for teams that can't afford for the training to fade by Friday.

01 What your team gets

Three things other training won't give you.

  1. 01

    Training that stays.

    Most AI workshops evaporate the week after. Yours include tailored materials your team can revisit, prompts they can keep using, and an advisory rhythm built around the engagement so the skills compound, not fade.

  2. 02

    Taught by a builder.

    I'm not a course author. I ship AI products (GuideKit, OtterLog, ClipShield) under Papi Labs and have built 100+ tools in the last three years. Your team learns from someone deploying this work for a living, not narrating it from slides.

  3. 03

    Responsible by design.

    Every engagement is governance-aware: what to use, what to avoid, how to evaluate, and how to defend the decisions you've made when someone asks. Real fluency, not theatre training.

02 How it works

Bespoke workshops, ongoing advisory.

Live workshops

In-person or remote, sized to your team. Half-day, full-day, or a multi-session arc spread over weeks. Tailored to your stack, your roles, and the work your team is actually trying to do.

Ongoing advisory

The workshop is the start, not the deliverable. Materials your team keeps, follow-up sessions to unblock real adoption, and an advisory rhythm sized to your goals — so AI fluency compounds inside the company instead of fading the week after.

Some clients also pilot GuideKit, the team learning platform we're building, as a continuity layer. Mention it on the call if useful.

The wedge: most AI training is a single workshop that fades. This is shaped to your team, built around what they're trying to do, and stays useful long after I've left the room.

03 What they said after

From the people I've worked with.

Saman ran a fantastic session with our team that opened my eyes to the good that AI is bringing to the world. It made me reframe my view on how it can be a force for good.
Ashley H. Assistant Communications Manager Ben & Jerry's
Super inspiring talk on the positive benefits of responsible AI.
Antonia Head of Innovation Ben & Jerry's
This was an excellent introduction to AI from a clear and knowledgeable host. I'd thoroughly recommend Saman to anyone interested in this topic.

04 A note on pricing

Every engagement is custom-quoted to your team's size, the depth of training you need, and the timeline that suits you. Mission-led and impact-driven organisations: there's always room to find a way.
