How we start
Three steps from first call to Field Plan.
01
30-minute call
Free
Is Fieldwork a fit? We plot your first 5 use cases, and take a baseline: where your people are with AI, and your AI strategy today.
You leave with: Your first 5 use cases, ranked, and where your team stands.
02
Use-case session
Free, by invitation
90 minutes with your leadership team, in your office. Every idea on one map: where AI pays, and what to leave alone.
You leave with: Your use-case map.
Offered after the call, when there's a fit.
03
Field Plan
Priced to your team
Your fluency program and the builds worth doing, scoped and priced in one plan. The same structure every time, built around your map.

How it works
Every AI to-do list has a line.
Left of it, your team does the work. Right of it, we build it. Our training moves the line.
The AI Diagnostic
Where do you actually stand?
Two sliders, one for you and one for your company. Pick the level that fits. We'll show you what we'd work on next.
FOR YOU
Where do I stand?
Lv 2 · Prompter
"I use AI daily. I've gotten real value but it lives in browser tabs."
What we'd focus on
- →Stop tab-hopping. Move into a Claude Project or custom GPT for your top 3 tasks
- →Capture your context once, reuse it everywhere
- →Pick one decision you make weekly and codify the framework
→ Together we'd map which of your weekly tasks are worth handing to AI.
FOR YOUR ORG
Where do we stand?
Lv 2 · Decision support
"Our numbers assemble themselves. We read them and decide, instead of collecting them."
What we'd focus on
- →Find the report somebody rebuilds by hand every Monday
- →Make every number show its source. Nobody trusts a number they can't explain
- →Attach a next step to each item that surfaces. A flag alone changes nothing
- →Decide which workflow behind those numbers deserves a real rebuild
→ Together we'd map your decision spine, then build the first one that pays.

The AI revolution is happening. Most people are watching it on a webinar.
Three things are true at once. The tools are getting better every month. The cost of building is collapsing. And the gap between people who use AI and people who operate it is widening fast.
Most of what's on offer doesn't help you cross that gap. Online courses you'll never finish. SaaS wrappers that lock your data behind someone else's UI. Big-firm consultants who hand you a deck and disappear. Vibe-coded prototypes nobody can maintain.
You don't need any of that.
You need a team that trains your people and builds what's actually worth building, then hands it over running, so your people own it and operate it. Your data, your prompts, your tools. Portable. Yours.
That's what we do.
“People worry AI means we stop using our brains. It’s the opposite — it lets us stop doing the things that don’t use our brains. Stop the tedium.”
What makes Fieldwork different
Own your AI. Or someone else owns your business.
01
In-person AI fluency, not just tech.
Everyone trained on their own work, at their own keyboard, before and after we build. A team that understands the system uses it. One that doesn't works around it.
02
You own what we build.
It runs in your systems, under your accounts, with your rules. No seats to rent and no platform to be locked into. What we build is yours to keep, change, or run without us.
03
Led by an experienced operator.
MIT engineer. $10M+ capital raised. Four boards managed. Payroll made. Companies started and sold. Rocks missed. Fieldwork's founder, Gabe Blanchet, has run a business like yours.
The method
We show up in person, train your team, and build what's worth building.
Most AI consulting ships a chatbot and leaves. We do the opposite. We work on-site with your team, and three things happen. Often all at once.
Train your team, in person
We're in the room — with your exec and the people who actually do the work. Hands on keyboards, your real tools, your real workflows. The whole team levels up together, not just the person who signed the contract.
Map your data and where AI pays off
We inventory your systems and what their data can actually support, trace how work moves between them, and baseline today's numbers. Then we rank where the money and the hours are hiding.
Build what's worth building
When a workflow is worth automating, we build it and hand it over running. The training makes your team fluent enough to operate it, push it, and know when it's working. The heavy engineering stays with us, so you get something production-grade, not a half-built prototype.
The AI-Native Guarantee
Your team moves up the AI-Native scale in 60 days. Or we keep working, free, until it does.
One promise, and it's measurable. Train with us and your team moves up at least one level on the 0–5 AI-Native scale. Measured the same way on Day 1 and at the Day 60 review. Here's how we hold ourselves to it.
01
The whole team, not a hero.
We measure the team — from the exec who signed to the people doing the work. Everyone we train moves up, or the guarantee isn't met. No leaning on one power user to carry the score.
02
Measured, not vibes.
Day 1, your team rates itself on the 0–5 AI-Native scale, the same one in the calculator at the top of this page. Day 60, same rubric, same questions, next to the usage data. No moving goalposts.
03
Or we keep working, on us.
Haven't moved up at least one level by Day 60? We keep coaching, free, until you do. The risk is ours, not yours.
The fine print: this covers training engagements. If you bring us in purely to build an automation — no training, no upleveling your team — the guarantee doesn't apply, and we'll both know that going in.
Haven't rated yourself yet? Scroll up — the calculator at the top of this page is the same one the guarantee runs on.
What we do
Four ways to work together.
All deliverables are yours to keep — code, docs, prompts, configs. No retainer required after handoff.
Selected work
Real artifacts. Real businesses. Yours when we're done.
Commercial real estate · Boise
Rafanelli & Nahas
Decades of lease terms lived in documents nobody could query. We indexed thousands of them across dozens of properties, inside the firm's own SharePoint, where the corpus already lived. Tenants, premises, economics, dated obligations, document lineage. Ask it a question and trust the number.
Mediation practice · California
Arriaga Mediation
An attorney inquiry arrives. A reply is waiting in his own Outlook drafts before he opens it. He reads it, changes what he wants, sends it. Nothing goes out that he didn't send.

What people say
“Gabe is the rare one who can do all three things that usually don’t live in the same person: coach a team through real change, build the systems himself, and roll them out so they stick. He closes the whole loop — from strategy to working system to adoption. The teams he touches come out faster and clearer than they went in.”
Luke Larkin
Owner, Larkin Systems
“We had a team spread all over the map on AI — from skeptics to daily users. Fieldwork brought everyone to the same capable baseline, building with skills and projects on their own work.”
Scott Schoenherr
Managing Partner, Rafanelli & Nahas
“I’m just laughing at the drafts that are created. They’re 1,000 times better than anything I could come up with — and in no time.”
Matt Arriaga
Owner, Arriaga Mediation
Who we are
We build with your team, not for them.
Fieldwork is an AI training and implementation firm in Boise, founded by Gabe Blanchet — MIT engineer, and an operator who has built and sold software companies for a decade.
Every engagement runs with two people on-site: a facilitator who trains your team, and an engineer who works the table. The coaching comes from scars, not slides.
Boise, Idaho. Husband, father of two, builder by training.
