What Altitud does

Altitud is a Paris-based Data & AI advisory practice operating as a senior collective of six practitioners under founder Saad Amrani Joutey, with Alice Fortuné as senior project manager and Juan Antin handling creative direction. The firm delivers three integrated service lines—advisory (strategy, due diligence, maturity assessment), training (272 catalogued modules spanning awareness, literacy, practitioner, and advanced tiers), and deployment (production AI builds including copilots, RAG assistants, predictive models, and specialized LLM applications). Its core proprietary asset is the Altitud Atlas, a maintained catalogue of 746 AI use cases and 272 trainings (1,018 entries), each scored and tagged across six maturity dimensions and filterable by industry, function, budget, and time-to-value.

The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting major banks, insurers, public sector bodies, and industrial groups across France, the UK, and the US. Pricing is fixed-range and engagement-based: diagnostic from €15k, due diligence from €35k, strategy and roadmap from €60k, executive programmes from €8k per cohort, practitioner workshops from €5k per day, and deployment builds ranging €30k–€250k+ over 4–24 weeks. Customer acquisition is anchored on a free 20-question diagnostic (7 minutes, no login) that generates a personalized PDF and feeds a 20-minute enterprise scoping call. The firm explicitly rejects a staffing pyramid—all work is delivered by named senior practitioners.

Selected enterprise references include BNP Paribas, Société Générale, Crédit Agricole, AXA, Allianz, Scor, Airbus, TotalEnergies, La Poste, Marine Nationale, and Capgemini, largely reflecting the founders' prior career engagements. The firm holds GDPR compliance, hosts data in the EU via Supabase (Frankfurt) and Vercel (EU edge), and uses Anthropic as an LLM sub-processor for diagnostic personalization. There is no disclosed funding, no institutional investors, and revenue is not publicly disclosed.

Emerging players

• Faculty AI: UK-based AI consultancy combining strategy advisory with production AI engineering, focused on enterprise and government clients. Comparable senior talent model and overlap on AI deployment and applied LLM work.
• Dataiku: Paris-based enterprise AI/ML platform company with a services arm. Adjacent peer given shared French roots and overlap in AI deployment, though anchored on a platform rather than pure advisory.

Direct peers

• Ekimetrics: Paris-founded Data & AI consultancy combining data science, AI engineering, and business transformation for large enterprises. Comparable senior-led model and similar vertical focus in financial services, energy, and consumer goods.
• Slalom: US-based boutique consulting firm delivering strategy, technology, and AI transformation services to mid-market and enterprise clients. Comparable boutique positioning with senior-led delivery and cross-industry AI advisory offerings.
• Artefact: Paris-based Data & AI consulting firm serving enterprise clients across Europe with strategy, transformation, and AI deployment services. Closest direct peer given shared French roots, similar service-line structure, and overlapping buyer base in banking, retail, and industry.

Broad incumbents

• Bain & Company: Global strategy consulting firm with an expanding Data & AI practice. Competes for the same enterprise AI strategy and roadmap engagements, with established relationships in the financial services and industrial buyer base.
• Accenture: Global professional services firm with a large Data & AI practice covering strategy, build, and managed services. Competes for the same enterprise AI mandates and has the scale to absorb engagements Altitud cannot staff.
• McKinsey (QuantumBlack): McKinsey's AI arm delivers analytics strategy, AI engineering, and transformation for Fortune 500 clients. Competes for the same CDO/CTO-level engagements Altitud pursues, with the advantage of global delivery and existing master agreements.
• BCG (Gamma): BCG's AI and analytics practice offers end-to-end data strategy, AI build, and transformation at global scale. Direct competitor for the same enterprise AI advisory budgets that Altitud targets, with vastly greater staffing and brand resources.

Others

• Capgemini Invent: Capgemini's digital transformation arm, already named as one of Altitud's references, sells AI strategy and deployment to large European enterprises. Closest system-integrator peer given shared French footprint and enterprise client overlap.
