How it works

A 90-day kickstart. Three phases.

Then the mentorship moves to a rolling monthly retainer, for as long as it keeps paying its way.

Understand your position

Where your business sits today: AI readiness, current risks, missed opportunities. An honest assessment in plain English, no jargon.

2

Build your strategy

3

Lead the change

Implementation guidance, team alignment and ongoing support as you move from strategy to results. Steven works alongside you, not ahead of you.

From the mentored

In their own words.

Steven at Summone Consulting mentored me through building my company, Leadhaus. This wasn't generic advice, it was expert mentoring from an AI consultant who pointed me at where the real opportunity was and guided the build from idea to a live lead-generation business. If you want AI consulting from someone who helps you ship something real, not just talk about it, this is him.

Tahar AliEntrepreneur, Founder of Leadhaus & AI Consultant

I've had AI consulting and mentoring from Steven at Summone Consulting and the acceleration is unreal. He takes you from dabbling with AI tools to using them like a professional. Genuine expert mentoring from someone with real enterprise experience, highly recommend for any business serious about AI.

Ali KhanFounder, TheCog.fit & AI Consultant

Real expertise, 25 years of experience shows. No corporate waffle. If you're a Scottish business looking to get ahead with AI, Steven's the real deal.

Garry LynchDirector, Bear Media & AI Consultant

Steven has mentored me on AI development. In a single session of expert mentoring, he had me running Claude Code properly with parallel sessions and a long-term memory set up. Years of experience compressed into an hour and a half. If you're looking for an AI consultant or AI mentoring, I would highly recommend, he's the best I've worked with and simplified the whole process.

Questions

Asked and answered.

Who is the AI mentorship designed for?

Senior leaders in regulated businesses who need to understand AI strategically, not technically. CTOs, operations directors, MDs and founders in sectors like financial services, legal and healthcare. If you make decisions about AI investment, adoption or strategy, this is for you.

How much does the mentorship cost?

Investment starts from £1,000 + VAT per month for a minimum three-month engagement. The exact retainer depends on the size and complexity of your organisation, so pricing is confirmed after a short discovery call. The 10-place limit keeps the programme genuinely hands-on regardless of who joins.

Why are there only 10 places?

Because this is genuinely one to one. Steven works directly with every client, and more than 10 active clients would compromise the quality of that access. When places are full, the next intake does not start until one becomes available.

What happens after 90 days?

Most clients continue on a rolling monthly retainer. The 90-day kickstart builds the foundations and the working relationship. After that, ongoing mentorship keeps your strategy current as AI moves fast. You can continue or stop with 30 days notice.

I am not technical. Is this relevant for me?

Yes. The programme is built for decision-makers, not developers. You do not need to understand how AI works technically. You need to understand what it means for your business, your risk and your competitive position. That is exactly what this covers.

What if I do not see results?

No quantifiable results or time saved? We keep working until there is, and we add a free month to your three-month engagement at no extra cost.
