AI and creative production

AI is making more of your assets. Someone still has to own the result.

Commercial and operational advice for brands, agencies and production businesses using AI to create, adapt and produce marketing content, from first draft to print-ready file.

The problem

Generative AI now produces adaptations, resizes, copy variants and imagery in minutes. Work that agencies and production partners used to price by the hour or by the asset is heading towards zero, and brand teams are buying AI tools faster than they set the rules for using them.

The result is more output and less control. Assets drift off-brand, legal and regulated copy goes out without a clear sign-off, and AI-generated artwork reaches the printer with the wrong colour set-up, missing pack copy or a barcode nobody checked. The saving on the production line comes back as rework, reprints and risk.

For suppliers there is a second problem: the commercial model. If the client is paying less for each asset, the business needs a different way to earn its margin.

What we do

  • Review where AI already sits in your workflow, from brief to finished file, and where it should and shouldn't be used
  • Set the inputs AI works from: brand rules, approved copy, templates, product data and past performance, so the output starts in the right place
  • Design the guardrails and approval points: who signs off brand, legal and regulated copy, and what a person must check before anything goes live or to press
  • Build print and packaging checks for AI-generated artwork, covering colour, die-lines, mandatory pack copy and barcodes
  • Reprice the work, moving from hours and asset counts to managed-service and outcome-based models that hold their margin as unit costs fall
  • Link output to commercial results, so you can see which content performs and refresh it before it stops working
  • Reshape roles, moving people from routine asset production to insight, brand judgement and client leadership

Who it's for

Three different starting points

Brand owners

You're using AI for content and need it under control

We set the rules, sign-offs and supplier terms, so AI speeds up production without putting the brand or compliance at risk.

Faster output you can stand behind

Creative agencies

Adaptation and production income is under pressure

We help you reprice, reposition and restructure around the work clients will still pay for: ideas, judgement and accountable delivery.

A model that keeps its margin

Print and production businesses

Artwork and prepress margins are being squeezed

We help you turn print-readiness and quality control of AI-made files into a service clients value and pay for.

Expertise sold as a service

What changes

Content produced faster and at lower cost, with clear ownership of quality and risk, and a commercial model built for how the work is now done.
