About this Event
You didn't wait for permission to start using AI. Now it's time to find out if it's actually working for you. This isn't an intro to AI - it's an audit of what you're already running.
Bring the tools you use today and pressure-test them against a simple framework: what stays, what gets refined, what gets cut, and where the real risk sits.
Join us for a hands-on workshop where you'll leave with a map of your systems, a framework for your next tool decision, and guardrails you actually trust.
This lab is for...
Founders already using AI tools who want structure behind that use, and early-stage teams feeling the sprawl after adopting AI one tool at a time. You should be able to name how you use AI today and what problem it solves — if you have not started yet, take a 101 session first. Bring the stack you are running today.

🤝 Platform Calgary partnered with OnStack AI Labs, because they wanted founders learning from founders who learned this the hard way, and did something about it.
OnStack's co-founders, Ev Oputa and Moose Abdelhag, work with organizations every day on the exact call this session is built around: what's ready for AI, what isn't, and where the risk actually sits.
- Co-Founder, OnStack AI Labs · Founder, Begine Fusion
Ev co-founded OnStack AI Labs, a Calgary applied-AI lab, after 13+ years across IT, financial services, fintech, marketing and nonprofits. He works with organizations on AI readiness and on getting systems into production - not just into slide decks.
- Co-Founder & AI Systems Architect, OnStack AI Labs · Founder & CEO, SIYS
Moose co-founded OnStack AI Labs, where he architects responsible AI systems for organizations. He also founded Struggle Is Your Success, a Calgary nonprofit that has supported 650+ young people, and holds Harvard Business School credentials in design thinking and disruptive strategy.
