You see beneath the surface
You notice details that change the outcome: equipment fit, itinerary constraints or an error in the data. You want to understand, not settle for a standard answer.
AISTART360 · JOIN THE LAB
Know your field deeply and see questions without ready answers? Here, your expertise can meet a real challenge, other disciplines and a testable idea.
Your specialism and curiosity are enough to start a conversation. No previous lab experience is needed.
One question. Different ways to find a solution.
You notice details that change the outcome: equipment fit, itinerary constraints or an error in the data. You want to understand, not settle for a standard answer.
You ask why, compare explanations and enjoy turning an idea into a prototype. You can change your mind when observations point elsewhere.
You bring practical experience, technology, a hypothesis or a challenge. You want to combine expertise and build something that works.
Human × AI × Business
An expert knows a plausible answer is not yet a useful solution. A practitioner checks feasibility, an engineer builds a prototype and a researcher helps distinguish an effect from coincidence. The lab connects these roles around one question.
Two research contexts. The hypotheses below are proposals for testing; team composition, data access and terms are agreed separately.
HONOR · CLIENT CASE
Equipment guidance, product data and repeat purchases. The implemented system is distinct from new hypotheses.
Equipment practitioner × AI engineer × experiment analyst
1 MLN KM · OUR OWN LAB
Itineraries, geodata, personalisation and value testing. Research directions without a promise of a finished product.
Route practitioner × geodata specialist × UX researcher
Start with one of three areas. Each contains specific tasks and relevant experience. If your specialism has a different name, describe it in your own words.

See a familiar problem through the eyes of an engineer, practitioner, analyst or customer.
Agree on a deliverable: a prototype, evaluation set, comparison method or data review.
Start a collaboration through a shared question and mutual care for the quality of the work.
Tell us what you know deeply and which questions interest you. A polished portfolio is not required.
Offer your expertiseDescribe an observation or idea you want to test. You do not need a finished experiment plan.
Propose an ideaShow where customers, time or money are being lost and which change matters.
Bring a business challengeYour name, contact and specialism. A work example and a hypothesis help, but can be discussed later.
We compare your interests and experience with the research question and clarify whether a suitable task is available.
If there is mutual interest, we discuss contribution, resources, payment, authorship, rights and data access.
Agree the first deliverable and criteria. Then decide whether to continue, change the approach or stop.
Define hypothesis and business owners, the test lead and technology and measurement responsibilities. Roles may overlap. Agree on payment, budget, code and material rights, confidentiality, data permissions, publication, handover and exit. Publish participants’ names and results only with permission.
We discuss domain knowledge, one relevant example, data skills, testable thinking, communication and availability. We do not automatically score CVs. Any practical assessment has an agreed scope; substantial production work requires a separate payment agreement.
Help with a defined question: reviewing a method, checking quality or interpreting results. Bring a clear approach, careful conclusions and documented handover.
Introduce your expertiseOwn a bounded task with an agreed deliverable. Define scope, resources, acceptance criteria and collaboration terms before starting.
Introduce your expertiseBring technology, an integration, infrastructure or a research method. Check fit, security and how to measure usefulness.
Discuss a technology partnershipShare your skills and interest in future tasks. Further involvement requires mutual agreement; it is not a promise of work or a project.
Introduce your expertiseYes. Practical experience, curiosity and willingness to test ideas matter more. Start with a problem you know from your work; you do not need to call yourself a researcher.
Not for the first conversation. Your specialism and contact are enough. Describe one example in your own words, without client names, confidential data or a public profile link.
No. The briefs describe potential research tasks. Recruitment is labelled separately only after the responsible owner confirms it.
Before starting, agree the task, contribution, deliverable, timing, payment, rights and data access. An application is not employment or a promise of payment without an agreement.
Yes. Choose a future project in the form and describe the question, one relevant example and a test approach. Contact about other tasks requires separate consent.
You do not need a finished idea. Bring depth in your craft and a desire to investigate together.
The catalogue presents potential research directions. A published hypothesis does not imply open recruitment, an approved budget or data access. We agree on each task’s terms before work begins.
