What We Do

Strategic AI consulting. Enterprise-grade systems. Real results.

Vastrix consulting combines AI strategy, workflow engineering, and technical architecture to help SMEs and scale-ups build the kind of automated operations normally reserved for bigger corporations.

You’re not getting generic advice, you’re getting actionable systems planning built on:

  • CPMAI™ methodology (CRISP-DM + PMI best practices)
  • Advanced automation experience (n8n, custom agents, API workflows)
  • Real deployment knowledge from actual systems Vastrix builds daily

Core Consulting Pillars

Everything we do aligns with CPMAI best practices and real-world system building. These are the pillars we use to structure your AI journey:

AI Readiness & Opportunity Assessment

We audit your processes, data, bottlenecks and look for:

  • automation opportunities
  • AI augmentation use cases
  • inefficiencies that can be eliminated
  • workflow gaps
  • high-ROI quick wins

Deliverable: a clear diagnostic report showing where AI fits and where it doesn't.

AI Roadmaps & Strategy Design

Using CPMAI methodology, we create a plan for:

  • what to automate
  • what AI models to use
  • what data is needed
  • what risks exist
  • build phases & timelines
  • required infrastructure

Deliverable: a 90-day or 6-month implementation roadmap.

Automation Architecture & Systems Design

We design the actual systems that will run your operations:

  • AI agents & workflows
  • custom automation pipelines
  • internal tools & data flows
  • API-based integrations
  • smart communication flows

Deliverable: a technical blueprint of your system, ready for implementation.

Implementation Support & Project Oversight

With CPMAI-aligned governance, we help ensure:

  • proper scoping
  • proper testing
  • proper iteration
  • ethical & compliant deployment

Deliverable: guided implementation that avoids failure, scope creep, and bad AI practices.

How Our Consulting Works

A structured, collaborative process designed to move from chaos to clarity and then to working systems.

1

Step 1 - Discovery & Deep Understanding

We learn your business model, processes, pain points, and goals. No templates, we map your actual reality.

2

Step 2 - Audit & Map

We analyse your workflows using CPMAI’s structured approach, identifying what to automate, augment or remove.

3

Step 3 - Architect & Align

We design the AI systems, automations, or solutions your business actually needs, not overkill, not gimmicks.

4

Step 4 - Implement or Support

You choose: Vastrix builds it for you, your devs build it with our oversight, or a hybrid model.
