The Propel Way

At Propel Ventures, we’re AI and product management-led and proud of it.

Unlike traditional consultants, we’ve been in the trenches, delivering exceptional products for real-world companies. We’re practitioners first—building and shipping products is in our DNA. We’re not just here to advise; we deliver, and we help you deliver like us as we work.

We have helped a range of big and small companies to increase their product capability either in a consulting capacity or by embedding Propel's AI-enabled product engineering teams.

Stacy Skeptical

“I hear AI is important, but I don’t get it”

Neil Not-started-yet

“AI is important, but I don’t know where to start”

Debra Decisive

“AI is our future, we know where we are going and we need help getting there”

In just two weeks, Stacy and her senior team went from zero to confident. They began with hands-on education, quickly uncovered practical use cases, and identified real opportunities. With Propel’s AI specialists, they brought one to life — from idea to impact.

Over the course of a structured engagement, Neil and his team built confidence and capability from the ground up. They began with tailored education to build a shared foundation, developed a clear AI strategy aligned to business goals, and then moved into implementation — delivering tangible outcomes that proved real-world value. From awareness to execution, they now have an end-to-end AI capability in motion.

With a clear vision already in place, Debra’s team engaged Propel to accelerate execution. They refined their roadmap, structured their delivery program, and partnered with experts to design and deploy the right solutions. From architecture to pilots, the focus was on building real, scalable capability — fast and with confidence.
