/Innovation department
You do not need to build an innovation department to have one.
/second is an always-on, on-demand innovation department for ambitious SMEs. Most SMEs cannot justify hiring innovation, product, AI, finance and growth profiles. With /second, that capacity is available when an opportunity needs it.
01What you get
- Innovation (Morgane): Finds, frames and challenges opportunities.
- Product & AI (Thomas): Turns opportunities into concrete propositions, products and systems.
- Finance & Viability (Vito): Makes sure ideas deserve investment.
- Growth (Cas and Karst): Two complementary growth profiles helping ideas find traction, validate demand and scale what works.
Every one of them works with AI assistants for research, preparation, testing and review. People make the decisions.
02Available today
Five experts, supported by specialised AI assistants, working in short iterative loops.
You can start with a fixed-price starter, or send us a problem and get a short analysis back, free. /second brain, the always-on front door, is being built and not live yet.
03On the roadmap
Innovation department as software. More of the repeatable work becomes agentic over time. The people remain where judgement matters. We do not claim that any part of the department runs on its own today.
04How you engage
- /second opinion: Bring one important question. Get an outside perspective and a concrete next step. EUR 495 excl. VAT.

05What you are buying
Not consulting hours, developers, workshops or AI licences. Innovation capacity: innovation expertise, product expertise, ai expertise, financial and viability thinking, growth capability, and a team that moves from question to execution.
