Applied AI for serious places. Run by practitioners.

I built the firm I wish had existed when I started shipping AI inside large organisations.

Over a decade I shipped more than sixty AI systems for banks, insurers, public-sector teams, and a couple of unicorns that no longer exist. The pattern was always the same. The models worked. The humans around them did not know how to scope, measure, verify, or refuse.

Every failure I've seen close-up was a human failure. Not a technical one. Somebody automated a mess. Somebody shipped plausible when plausible was not enough. Somebody did oversight cosplay while the model silently broke trust with its real users.

Cohorte started in 2022 with two people in a room in Paris. Nearly four years later, the firm has trained over two hundred practitioners across thirty-eight countries, ships a weekly newsletter to fifteen thousand readers, and has accepted exactly zero euros of sponsorship. The last number is the one I am proudest of.

We teach the boring work. Scoping. Measurement. Verification. Governance. The courage to say "this cannot be automated yet." Taste is the last human moat. We make it teachable.
