Next Billion Lab

The next billion will be built by people who know AI.

Not the people who have AI — almost everyone does now. The people who know how to think with it. We measure that capability, then build the workflows that turn it into growth.

The idea

AI is now a commodity. Knowing how to think with it is not.

Everyone has the same models. The advantage has moved — from who has access, to who has capability. The teams that pull ahead aren't the ones with the best tools. They're the ones who know what to point AI at, how to drive it, and when not to trust it. That's a measurable, buildable skill. It's the whole of what we do.

Measure your people

The AIQ Assessment

AIQ scores your team across 4 dimensions of real AI capability. Not self-reported. Not a survey. You see who is ready to build and who needs a different starting point.

  • Four dimensions — Delegation, Description, Discernment, Diligence — one score from 200 to 1000, benchmarked against their sector
  • Tests real behaviour: catching where AI fails, driving the tool, knowing its limits
  • Rolls up to a department view — and the capability gap in real money
  • Built for finance, education, real estate, healthcare, retail and more

Build the workflows

The AI Lab

Once we know where the capability gap is, we close it. Build the real thing. Leave with proof.

  • Not a course, a lab — every week you build with AI on your own files, workflows and numbers
  • Facilitators are builders, not lecturers — practitioners working at the intersection of business and AI
  • Teach · Build · Assess — 45 min framework, 45 min real work, capstone graded by a human
  • Leave with a Proof Pack — the AI tool you shipped, its measured impact, and your verified AIQ score
  • Stackable credentials — NBL Claude Practitioner (Level 1) and Anthropic Academy certificates

How it works

Measure. Build. Compound.

AI isn't a topic you can teach in a classroom — it's a skill people build by doing. We measure where your team stands, put them hands-on with a real business problem, and hand the wheel over so they lead the AI implementations from there.

STEP ONE

Measure

Your team takes the AIQ assessment. In minutes you see exactly where they're strong, where they leak value, and how they compare to their sector.

STEP TWO

Build

In the lab they work on their actual job. Their actual bottleneck. Something that used to take hours gets done in minutes. That moment is the one that changes behaviour. Not the training.

STEP THREE

Compound

Your people leave equipped to lead the AI implementations themselves. We're not the vendor shipping a product — we're the coach who got them fluent enough to run the next one without us.

Find out how your people think with AI.

It takes 12 minutes. It's tailored to your role. And it ends with exactly where to start.
