Meet Medi, your co-facilitator

You can't run the room and be in it. Medi runs it for you.

Someone has to guide the conversation, structure the discussion and keep the session on track. Medi does that, out loud, so you stay in the conversation instead of managing it.

  1. 01

    Holds the structure

    Medi moves the session through each step, so no one has to referee and the discussion doesn't wander.

    “Let's park that and come back to it.”

  2. 02

    Brings in every voice

    Medi guides participation and draws in the quiet people, so the loudest person doesn't decide by default.

    “Lena, what are we missing?”

  3. 03

    Challenges assumptions

    Before anyone votes, Medi asks what would have to be true and flags the risks and blind spots.

    “Do we know that, or are we hoping?”

  4. 04

    Writes it down live

    Ideas, decisions, risks and next steps are captured on the canvas while you talk. Nobody takes minutes.

    “Who owns this, and by when?”

The question

How do we make the e-bike fleet profitable in year one?

We decided

Switch from per-minute rides to a subscription with field battery swaps.

Why: commuters ride daily and churn less, and swaps cut the biggest cost line. Strongest option on the wall, 3 of 3 votes.

The price

A facilitator costs $5,000. Medi costs $399.

Most planning sessions don't need a day rate, a discovery call and a travel budget. They need someone to run the room and write down what you decided.

Questions

Before you start

How much does a facilitator cost compared with Medi?

A strategic-planning facilitator typically charges around $5,000 for a day, before prep, travel and the write-up. A facilitated session with Medi is $399, with unlimited participants and a 100% outcome guarantee.

What kind of planning sessions can Medi run?

Strategy and planning sessions built on a proven framework: SWOT to clarify your positioning, the Business Model Canvas to map how you make money, the Beachhead Matrix to pick your ideal customer and the Bullseye Framework to choose your growth channels. Each runs 45 to 90 minutes and ends in a decision record.

Is an AI facilitator as good as a human one?

For a focused planning session, Medi does the core of the job: it holds the structure, brings in every voice, challenges assumptions and writes up the decision. It doesn't run weeks of stakeholder interviews or mediate a team in open conflict. For those, hire a person.

How do I get started?

Click Start a session and log in or create your account, then pick the session type on your computer. It's free to try with one teammate. To bring the whole team, unlock the room for $399 and share the link. Want to pay ahead? Buy a Team Session pass from your account and use it whenever you're ready.

Who can join, and do they need accounts?

Your whole team, with no cap on participants. Guests join from a link with just their name. No account and no payment needed.

Can we keep our Zoom, Teams or Google Meet call?

Yes. Methodiq has video built in, but you can stay on your usual call and run the session in a browser tab alongside it. There's nothing to install.

We plan every quarter. Is there a better deal?

Methodiq Pro is $199 a month for unlimited facilitated sessions, with a 2-month minimum ($398 upfront). A Team Session purchase can cover your first two months of Pro, once.
