Leveraging AI for consistent productivity
AI enablement across Marketing, Sales and Implementation functions in a late-stage EdTech startup.
Client: Late-stage EdTech startup. Marketing, Sales and Implementation functions.
Challenge: Multiple AI subscriptions were provided, but adoption was inconsistent and inefficient. Teams lacked shared workflows, data relevance, and clarity on “safe and useful” usage.
What Coucal did:
Ran leadership alignment sessions on AI value, guardrails, and role expectations
Designed bespoke role-based learning (leaders and teams) with practical exercises from real work
Implemented workflow patterns enhanced by Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): analysis, drafting, QA, and review norms
Established adoption rhythm and metrics (usage, quality, time saved)
Outcomes:
Reduced cycle time for selected workflows in Sales and Implementation by 50%+
Improved perceived usefulness and confidence substantially
RAG hugely enhanced analysis capabilities across Marketing and Sales
Capability built:
Internal enablement playbook
Role-based training kit
Measurement model
