ABOUT
One standard: it has to work on Monday morning.
Makia Labs started from one observation: most corporate AI trainings stop at the demo. Teams leave impressed and… change nothing. Our MAKIA framework and CRAFT prompt method (Context · Role · Action · Format · Tone) are built for the opposite: you leave the room with working prompts, a configured Project, and a 90-day plan.
Research-grounded, active pedagogy, and one stated bias: we'd rather find one use case that saves 30 minutes a day than show ten slides about the singularity.

WHITEPAPER · FREE
Generative AI in SMEs: what works, what doesn't.
In February 2025, AI training became a legal duty across the EU. Most SMEs haven't noticed. This 28-page playbook explains what changed, what to do about it, and how the MAKIA framework filters the 80% of AI projects that don't belong in your business from the 20% that do.
Let's talk about your AI adoption.
30 minutes. No slides. We look at one of your use cases and tell you what we'd do.
