Meet the humans training the machines
Gyroscope is a ‘Professionals as a service’ team assembled for focused deliveries.
Pooria and Joe are the founding partners of Gyroscope.
It is common for our team to grow in order to deliver.
We:
Respect your staff’s time Use a foundation of data Create more than prototypes
We balance thinking + making
THINK
You didn’t pick the teams working on your projects at random. We consider their industry and category knowledge years and assume they have ideas and hypotheses to test. We don’t start from scratch with every project.
A Gryroscope maintains direction while traveling at speed.
MAKE
AI tools can increase the number of ideas at higher fidelity. No two organizations use the same set of tools in the same way—much less have the same guidelines for AI. We embrace constraints to deliver on your goals.
