Service design with AI and the Stingray method

Are your services evolving at the same pace as customer expectations?

Practical internal training for service managers and teams, where you will learn how to develop customer-centric services faster and smarter with the help of AI.

The team using AI

Does your service create value for the customer?
enough moments of enjoyment?

Do you sometimes feel that:

  • Service development is delayed because there is no common understanding of where to start and what creates value.

  • Customer expectations are changing faster than the service can keep up.

  • The potential of AI tools remains untapped because there is no clarity on how to apply them effectively.

  • The service is functional, but it doesn't leave a memorable impression on users or create an experience.

If any of these speak to your team, you may benefit from developing your service design skills with AI.

AI and the Stingray method help develop services faster and smarter

Service teams are facing increasingly complex expectations and rapid change. AI tools and the Stingray method help make better decisions, engage the team, and develop services that create value and moments of delight for the customer.

AI-powered service design helps:

  • Map service gaps and customer journey bottlenecks more quickly.

  • Create ideas and prototypes using AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT, Copilot, Figma AI).

  • Design and test memorable experiences that customers will truly remember.

  • To enhance collaboration and shorten the time from idea to working solution.

The result is more systematic and faster-moving service development, focused on what creates real value for the user.
