Training first, then tools
Adoption fails when staff are handed software without understanding. AIVERSE trains people before it builds for them: its AI Capacity Training Programme at IUK trained 130 students, half of them women, and was submitted to the ITU Digital@UNGA Awards 2026.

04How we start
How we start
AI readiness starts before the tool: data, people, process, policy and a pilot. We start with one workflow, measure it for 30 days, and only then scale.

Recent projects.
01What is AIVERSE?
AIVERSE is the AI practice of Esoteric Strats. It trains people to use AI well and builds applied AI products, such as the AI behind Mafuriko and the Miisaan fiscal assistant.
02Where should an organisation start with AI?
With one repetitive workflow, not a strategy deck. Record how long it takes today, run a pilot for 30 days and compare.
03Do you train non technical teams?
Yes. Basic AI awareness for everyone, hands on practice for each team, and one champion in every department.
What’s slowing your team down?
Walk us through it. We’ll come back with what a fix could look like, and what it would take.
