The challenge
AI won’t transform your brand
without someone driving it
Most brands know AI is changing commerce. Few have the internal expertise to build a real strategy, implement it across their stack, and keep it running.
No internal AI leadership
Your team knows AI is important but nobody owns the roadmap, the tooling decisions, or the data governance. Experiments stay scattered.
Hiring takes too long and costs too much
A senior AI Director commands €120–150k+ and takes 4–6 months to hire and onboard. You need results this quarter, not next year.
Consultants give advice, not execution
Generic AI consultants deliver workshops and slide decks. When the project ends, your team is left to operate tools they barely understand.
What’s included
NerveOps™ — four layers of AI leadership
Our operating model runs four interlocking layers. Together they ensure AI in your brand is strategic, operational, self-improving, and safe.
Strategy
Custom AI roadmap aligned to your commerce model, channels, and growth goals. Tooling decisions, model selection, and quarterly priorities — all owned by your AI Director.
Execution
Hands-on implementation across your tools, data sources, and live workflows. We build the integrations, configure the AI, and run the operations — your team focuses on outcomes.
Enablement
Your team learns to use AI, not depend on us. Prompt libraries, workflow playbooks, and hands-on training sessions that compound over time — so AI grows with your people.
Governance
Monthly performance reviews, ROI tracking, data privacy, tool consolidation, and ongoing optimization. AI that stays aligned with your business as the market shifts.
How we compare
AI Director vs. the alternatives
Hiring in-house or using a generic consultant both have real costs beyond salary or project fees. Here’s the full picture.
| In-house hire | Generic consultant | Epinium AI Director | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time to first results | 4–6 months (hire + onboard) | 1 workshop, no implementation | 30 days to live AI workflow |
| Ongoing operations | Yes — if they stay | No — project ends | Yes — embedded every month |
| Commerce specialization | Varies widely by candidate | Rarely e-commerce native | 500+ brands, Amazon-certified |
| Team enablement | Ad hoc, depends on person | Workshop only, then you’re alone | Structured playbooks + training |
| Continuity risk | High — all knowledge walks out | High — project scoped, then done | Zero — methodology stays with you |
| NerveOps™ methodology | No | No | Yes — 4-layer operating model |
| Monthly commitment | €10k+ (salary + taxes + tools) | Variable per-project billing | Flat retainer, scoped to fit |
How it works
From audit to live AI director in four steps
Week 1
We audit your current tech stack, data sources, team workflows, and existing AI tools. Output: a clear map of gaps, quick wins, and 90-day priorities.
Week 2–3
We build your custom AI roadmap and deploy the first live workflow — usually the highest-leverage process from the audit. Your team starts using AI immediately.
Week 4
Hands-on training, prompt library handoff, and a live session where every team member works with real AI tools on real tasks. No slide decks — actual practice.
Month 2 onwards
Monthly strategy reviews, usage analytics, new workflow deployments, and governance checks. Your AI practice compounds every month — it doesn’t stay still.

We use Epinium every day to monitor the status of all our ASINs across all marketplaces and improve our SEO very productively. An indispensable tool that lets us manage a much larger catalog than we imagined. Worth every penny.

It is impossible to calculate the hours Epinium has saved me managing customer catalogs. I've modified catalogs of up to 3,500 SKUs and run SEO audits comfortably from the same panel.

Is this a software subscription or a service?
It’s a service. You get a dedicated Epinium team that operates as your embedded AI Director — building strategy, running implementations, enabling your team, and managing ongoing AI governance. No platform subscription is required, though Epinium Platform clients benefit from faster integrations.
Do we need technical staff in-house?
No. The AI Director role covers the technical layer — tool selection, API integrations, workflow configuration, and data governance. Your team participates in training and uses the resulting workflows. You don’t need an engineer on your side to get started or to keep things running.
How is this different from hiring a consultant?
A consultant delivers a project — a report, a workshop, a setup — and then leaves. An AI Director stays embedded. We run the operations every month, track the results, train the team continuously, and evolve the strategy as your business changes.
What if we already use AI tools?
The readiness audit maps everything you already have. Most brands have three to six AI tools running in silos. We audit which are delivering value, which are redundant, and where the real gaps are — then build a unified strategy on top of what works.
What does it cost?
Pricing is structured as a monthly retainer, scoped to your team size and the depth of AI coverage you need. Scope is defined in a free discovery call — we don’t quote a number until we understand your situation. The first audit session is free.
Is our data safe?
Yes. All engagements run under NDA. Your data stays within your infrastructure or Epinium’s secure EU-hosted environment — never shared with third parties. Tool recommendations are privacy-first.
