Hands-on training on your own tasks, automations built together with your teams, and measured results. Not lectures about the future, but ways of working that work on Monday morning.

01 / Where things stand

Your staff have already started using AI. The question is whether they know how.

80%

of professionals in the Icelandic labour market use AI at work

34%

have received AI training from their employer

Careless use is not just a missed opportunity. Research shows it can make experienced people slower and increase errors. The difference is the training.

02 / How it works

The AI Sprint: two weeks that change how your department works

Week 1

Skills

Three lectures for everyone and hands-on workshops in small groups by role (8–15 people): finance practises on finance tasks, marketing on marketing material. Everyone goes home with at least three working use cases in their own job — and clear rules for safe use.

Week 2

Application

We build automations with your teams in your own systems. The teams choose the workflows, we build them together. At the same time we train 2–4 in-house specialists ("champions") who keep the development going after we leave.

Day 30

Measurement

We measure the baseline before the sprint. On day 30 we measure the same workflows again. You get your own numbers, not statistics from foreign reports.

03 / The research

What does proper training deliver? The research is clear.

25–56%

faster completion of individual tasks

higher quality of work

improvement among those with the least experience

And some of the workflows we automate do not get 30% faster — they disappear entirely.

04 / Safety

Safe use is not a side note, it is the foundation

In week 0 we shape an AI policy with your technical and legal people. You get a finished, tailored usage policy — a job that takes many companies a whole year.

  • Which data may go into which tools
  • Which tools are approved
  • How staff verify results
  • When not to trust AI

[ Funding ]

Vocational training funds reimburse up to 90% — we handle the application

The training part of the sprint qualifies for grants from Iceland's vocational training funds. Starfsafl, for example, reimburses companies up to 90% of training costs, capped at 4 million ISK per year. In the free assessment we map out which grants are available to you — and we prepare the application for you.

06 / Pricing

Fixed price. No hourly rates.

For comparison, an open 18-hour AI course for managers costs 299,000 ISK per person. Vocational training funds can also reimburse a large share of the training cost.

Trial day

A full-day hands-on workshop for one team (10–25 people). A good way to start small.

07 / About us

We are not consultants who stopped coding. We build every day.

Vestra AI was founded in January 2025. Since then we have built more than 50 AI solutions and created Slapp — a social network that reached over 20,000 Icelanders in under three months. Everything we teach, we used ourselves that same week.

What most people ask

No. The sprint is designed for every department — finance, marketing, customer service, operations, HR. The workshops are tailored to each role. For development teams we have a separate, deeper programme.
