Co-Innovation

We build with startups, corporate leaders, and technologists to shape ideas into impactful solutions.

Shaping the Future

Co-Innovation is how we connect advanced technologies to real-world challenges and convert powerful ideas to working solutions. We engage with startups, corporates, and engineers to build, test, and scale what matters.

Whether it’s building an AI prototype in the lab, bringing a business idea to life, or integrating new capabilities from a rising startup, we bring clarity to ambiguity and momentum to vision.

Where Ideas Take Root

How It Works

As a founding partner of the Microsoft AI Co-Innovation Lab in Wisconsin, we help turn high-value use cases into working AI prototypes. You’re in the build with us, shaping what matters and setting the stage for real deployment.

Clarify the Challenge

We help you identify the use case that’s worth solving, one that’s high-value, proprietary, and not solvable with off-the-shelf tools.

Ready the Inputs

You’ll align data, standard operating procedures, and team context so the AI model can be built for how your operations actually work.

Build with Us

Over the course of several days, you’ll work directly with Microsoft engineers to develop a functional prototype that is tangible, testable, and tailored to your environment.

Leave with a Plan

You don’t just walk away with a prototype. You'll leave with a roadmap, a trained team, and the confidence to carry AI further in your organization.

We build with you, not for you. The pace is fast, but the work runs deep. And everything we build is grounded in your world: your data, your workflows, your people. No off-the-shelf fixes. Just meaningful progress, made together.

AI in Action

Real problems, real prototypes

—co-developed by corporate teams, startup thinkers, and Microsoft engineers.

AI-Powered Farm Assistant for Hydroponic Management

Fork Farms, an agtech innovator, worked with TitletownTech and Microsoft to design an AI assistant that helps users manage planting, maintenance, and crop scheduling. Built with real sensor data, SOPs, and farm best practices, the tool provides proactive insights through a conversational interface. The result? A scalable, data-driven platform that makes indoor farming more accessible.

“The setup lends itself to a true forcing function for innovation...we had breakthroughs we wouldn’t have achieved on our own.” - Kevin Boyle, Director of Emerging Business, Fork Farms

Who Should Engage

If you're ready to build, we’re ready to partner.

Startups

You're developing AI-powered tools or frontier tech and looking to prove them in real-world environments. We help you shape use cases, gain traction, and build with industry alongside you.

Corporate Teams

You’re facing a real operational challenge or exploring a bold new idea. Whether it’s your first AI initiative or a push to scale innovation across the org, we help you move from concept to working prototype with speed, clarity, and strategic alignment.

Small & Midsize Manufacturers

You don’t need a full data science team to explore AI. We help you identify high-impact use cases, build working prototypes, and unlock efficiencies through technology that fits your workforce and operations.

Researchers & Technologists

You’ve got expertise. We help you apply it. The Co-Innovation Lab is a chance to shape, test, and stretch technical approaches in ways that matter to users and industry.
