How It Works

1. A conversation and a sample

Most firms start by talking with Dave. If it looks like a fit, we build a free sample brief for your firm from public information, so you can judge the quality on your own business before you pay anything.

Questions, or want a sample built for your firm? Email dave@engineeringforesightai.com.

Pay by annual invoice (bank transfer, card or check) or monthly by card. See Pricing.

3. A short onboarding questionnaire

About 15 questions, roughly 20 minutes: your service lines and markets, offices, key clients and competitors, the software you rely on, where you are with AI today, your top strategic priorities, and any topics to avoid. You also name the one address that will receive your briefs, for example the CEO or a shared address such as ai-intel@yourfirm.com.

4. Your briefs arrive twice a week

Each brief covers four to six developments, most relevant to you first, plus your Competitor AI Watch and the Valuation Trend Line. Distribute it inside your firm however you like: forward it, post it on your intranet, use it in leadership meetings.

5. It gets sharper over time

We keep a private record of what we've told you and what you've told us. Reply to any brief with corrections, questions or topics you want covered, and the next edition reflects it. Each quarter you receive a "State of AI at your firm" summary.

How each brief is made

Research. We scan the AEC, water, environmental, regulatory and financial press, vendor newsrooms and your competitors' announcements every week. The full list of standing sources appears at the end of every brief.
Analysis. Briefs are researched and drafted with AI tools under Dave Bennett's editorial direction. We read every source we cite.
Labels. Verified facts, vendor claims and our own analysis are marked as such. Where we are inferring something about your firm, we say so.
Quality checks. Every brief passes automated checks for broken links, unsourced claims and any mention of another subscriber before it is sent. During our pilot period, every personalized brief is reviewed by a person before it goes out.

Confidentiality

Your brief is sent only by email to your firm's designated address. Firm-specific briefs are never posted on this website.
Your profile, questionnaire answers and briefs are kept separate from every other subscriber's and are never used to write anyone else's brief.
We never use information about any firm Dave advises, and we never share yours. See our Privacy Policy.

What it is not

Engineering Foresight AI is strategic intelligence, not engineering, legal, financial or investment advice. Decisions remain yours and your professional advisors'.
