Short answer

Email justas@ainora.lt. The most useful first conversation is about one specific process rather than about AI in general – and if the honest answer is that this is premature for where you are, I will say so.

What makes a first conversation useful?

Bring one process rather than a strategy question. The ones that work best are frequent, expensive and disliked internally: intake, triage, chasing, checking or re-keying.

  • Roughly how often it happens.
  • Roughly what one occurrence costs in loaded staff time.
  • What has already been tried, if anything.
  • Who would have to accept the risk of putting a system live.

That is enough to tell within half an hour whether there is anything worth doing.

What happens next?

  1. A short conversationNo preparation needed beyond one process in mind.
  2. A written note on whether it is worth pursuingIncluding the case for doing nothing, where that applies.
  3. If it is, a fixed-scope diagnosticDefined deliverable, defined end date, no obligation to continue.

Frequently asked questions

How do I contact Justas Butkus?

By email at justas@ainora.lt, or via LinkedIn. He is based in Vilnius, Lithuania and works with companies across the UK, EU and US.

What should I prepare for a first conversation?

One specific process: roughly how often it happens, what one occurrence costs in loaded staff time, what has been tried, and who would accept the risk of going live. That is enough to establish whether there is anything worth doing.

Are you taking on new work?

A limited number of engagements at a time, at two to four days a month. Building and operating production systems is the day job and it is what the advisory work is grounded in.

Email is the fastest route

One process, roughly how often it happens, and what it costs. That is enough to start.
