Engagements & method · 4 questions

How Visian
works.

From a few weeks of framing to a 12-month build — the method and the rituals.

Q10What types of engagement does Visian offer?
Three horizons:
  • Strategic framing, a few weeks, data vision and trajectory.
  • Design & build, 3 to 12 months, architecture, platform, products.
  • Operation & handover, lasting execution, transfer to internal teams.
Visian also offers three packaged AI offerings, Cost-killing, Performance, New business — three business levers activated by AI, built on a single technical foundation (stack, dedicated MCPs, support).
Q11What is the average length of an engagement?
Engagements last on average 6 to 9 months ; build programmes run from 3 to 12 months. The AI offerings start with a short framing before launching the right workstream.
Q12Does Visian work only in Paris?
No. The head office is in Paris (Tour Europlaza, La Défense) and a secondary office in Marseille, but engagements take place all over France and Europe. Hybrid working: regular client presence, remote for technical phases.
Q13How does a first conversation work?
30 minutes, no commitment. Understanding the context, identifying the right contact, then proposing — or not — a framing. Visian would rather say no than sell a pointless engagement. Contact: contact@visian.fr.
04
AI Training · 4 questions

Training
teams.

A role-based programme to make teams self-sufficient in generative AI.

Q14Does Visian offer AI training?
Yes. Visian offers a generative AI training programme, modular and organised by role: 6 profiles covered, 3 cross-functional modules and 18 core-role modules — 21 modules in total. Sessions are led by consultants who deliver data & AI projects every day.
Q15Which roles does the AI training cover?
Six roles : 4 functional profiles — PO, Data Analyst, IT BA, Project manager — and 2 tech & build profiles — Data Engineer, Developer. Each profile follows 3 core-role modules, complemented by the shared cross-functional modules (reverse documentation, testing, workshops, reporting, watch, framing, communication).
Q16Is the AI training certifying?
Three formats are available: à la carte module (½ to 1 day), certifying role track (a profile's 3 modules + cross-functional, with assessment), and tailored coaching. Durations range from ½ day to 3 days, and certification is available on complete role tracks.
Q17How does it differ from the AI offerings?
The AI offerings transform the business (cut costs, gain performance, open new growth drivers); the AI training makes teams self-sufficient in AI. The two complement each other: training flows naturally into operational support — pilot, framework setup, handover.

Eco-design & CSR · 3 questions

Sobriety
& commitment.

RGESN, frugal AI, 115 best practices — sobriety at the heart of the data approach.

Q18What is eco-design at Visian?

Q19What is frugal AI?
Frugal AI means designing artificial-intelligence systems that maximise their usefulness while minimising their resource consumption (compute, energy, data). At Visian it's a principle applied from the framing phase: choose the simplest model that solves the problem, measure the footprint, optimise inference and training.
Q20What is the RGESN?
