See AI work on your own stories before you commit.

Black Sheep Meedia builds AI tools for publishers and media teams. Start with a hands-on workshop: your leadership picks one real problem, and we build a working prototype on your own content.

A 15-minute intro call. No preparation needed, and you decide what comes next.

Why pilots stall

Why newsroom AI pilots stall

Generic tools don't know your newsroom

ChatGPT has never read your archive, your style guide or your CMS, so every answer needs checking from scratch.

Strategy decks don't ship

A consultancy roadmap still leaves someone to build the thing, and that someone is usually busy.

Your tech team is already booked

AI experiments queue behind the paywall, the app and the next CMS migration.

So the pilot stays a pilot, and nobody can say what AI is worth to your readers.

Hands-on AI workshop

Start with one problem. Leave with a working tool.

A hands-on AI workshop for your leadership, run on site with your editorial and technical teams.

01

Map

Where AI helps, and where people decide

We sit with your editors and tech team, map where AI could help, and agree on the rules: where AI acts and where a human approves.

02

Choose

One use case, with a reason

We score each idea by expected gain and build effort, then pick one to prototype. You keep the ranked list for later.

03

Prototype

Proof on your own content

We build it together on your real articles and workflows. Your team uses it in the room, so you judge results instead of slides.

04

Production

Scoped after it works

If it proves its value, we scope architecture, integration and support. You agree on fees after you've seen it work.
