Innovation Mode Limited · Dublin

We are innovating for innovators.

World-class innovation methodology has lived behind six-figure consulting budgets and the world's best-resourced innovation programmes. We're changing that. Ainna puts always-on opportunity discovery - and evidence-gated decisions - within reach of every company, from the solo founder to the global enterprise.

The company's operating context and its innovation agenda feed every loop.

The Innovation Mode framework - the published methodology Ainna runs on.

Why we exist

The world needs more products that matter - and the people building them deserve tools that match their ambition. Innovation Mode Limited is a Dublin-based startup committed to bringing structured product thinking to founders, teams and organisations. It builds Ainna (ainna.ai), AI for product discovery used by product teams and founders, and Ainna Enterprise, an innovation management platform built for opportunity discovery across the whole organisation. The name Ainna is short for AI Innovation Agent.

Vision

Innovation shouldn't be a privilege. It should be the default.

Innovation is still a privilege. World-class methodology lives behind expensive consultancies; inside companies, it runs on episodic hackathons and ad-hoc workshops.

We're operationalising the Innovation Mode - our framework for systematic opportunity discovery and assessment - as an AI system. Always-on innovation channels, open to every employee, at the speed product decisions demand.

Mission

Embed AI-native innovation intelligence into how companies innovate.

Ainna is an inclusive, always-on innovation channel: open to every employee, every founder. Autonomous agents generate, challenge, and assess opportunities continuously, with human judgment at the core. The system is engineered to say no when the evidence says no - and to show what would turn it into a yes. This is human/AI hybrid innovation for companies of any size, from solo founders to global enterprises.

Not a wrapper around a language model - a system that knows how to think about products.

Ainna for product teams and founders. Ainna Enterprise for organisations.

Ainna for Product Teams

Discover your next great product. Brainstorm product ideas, grade every opportunity with the reasoning shown, bring in your experts, then write the PRD. For whole teams, consistent opportunity framing, shared evaluation criteria and portfolio-level visibility, so resource decisions rest on evidence, not on who pitched last. Explore Ainna for product teams →

Shared Opportunity Workspace

Multiple PMs framing, assessing, and iterating on opportunities in one workspace. Consistent methodology across every team member, every initiative.

Cross-Functional Evaluation

The Panel lets cross-functional leads - engineering, design, customer success - independently evaluate and challenge each opportunity. Structured disagreement surfaces the best ideas.

Portfolio Dashboard

Side-by-side opportunity comparison with comparable scoring across every concept. See your innovation pipeline's health at a glance.

Shared Brand Standards

Define your brand once, apply it everywhere. Consistent, professional outputs across the entire team - without manual enforcement.

Priority Support

Faster response times and dedicated support channels. Issues resolved, momentum preserved.

Early Access

Get new capabilities first. Your team shapes the product roadmap through direct feedback and beta access.

Ainna for Founders

Shape the right product. Build a great startup. Bring a rough idea: Ainna frames it, grades it with the reasoning shown and tells you what would make it stronger. It brings your inner circle into the verdict, shapes your MVP and, when the idea holds, writes the pitch deck, business plan and PRD, with the strategic depth of a seasoned consultant. Explore Ainna for founders →

Strategic Framing

Structured conversation that forces clarity on the problem, the user, the solution, and the 'why now.' Ainna challenges weak assumptions and surfaces what you haven't considered - following The Innovation Mode framework.

The Judge & The Panel

AI-driven opportunity assessment grades each concept across ten dimensions, covering viability, feasibility and strategic fit. On premium plans, The Panel brings your trusted experts into the evaluation - AI analysis meets human judgment. Patent-pending architecture.

Market & Competitive Intelligence

TAM/SAM/SOM with transparent methodology, competitive landscape mapping, and persona analysis - grounding your opportunity in evidence, not optimism.

Document Generation

Twelve documents, from problem framing to pitch decks, PRDs and the system's architecture - generated from your validated strategic work, fully editable PPTX and DOCX you own forever.

Privacy by Design

Your ideas stay yours. No data retained for AI training. Documents are rendered when you download them; the only copy is yours. Hard delete on demand - no recovery.

Published Methodology

Not a wrapper around a language model. Every insight follows The Innovation Mode - systematic methodology published by Springer Nature and refined through 25+ years of innovation consulting.

Ainna Enterprise

Help the whole organisation innovate faster with AI. Ainna Enterprise is the Opportunity Discovery System for the whole organisation: it senses your markets and your own people, frames every problem to one standard, grades every concept with the Judge and your Panel, and remembers what the organisation learns in the Innovation Graph. Powered by Innovation Mode 2.0, AI, and behavioural science, it transforms how companies discover opportunities, manage portfolios, and build innovation culture. Patent-pending technology. Deployed in your environment. Explore the enterprise platform →

Organisation-Level Orchestration

Manage innovation across departments, business units, and geographies. Coordinate opportunity discovery, idea management, and portfolio prioritisation at enterprise scale - from a single command centre.

Always-On Ideation & Smart Diffusion

Foster a continuous flow of ideas from every employee. AI-powered diffusion routes ideas to the right evaluators, teams, and decision-makers automatically - turning scattered creativity into structured pipelines.

Innovation Performance Measurement

Quantify innovation for the first time. Track ideation velocity, portfolio health, team engagement, and strategic alignment with real-time dashboards - giving leadership the data to fund what works.

Culture Transformation Engine

Behavioural science meets AI. Gamification, goal-setting, and recognition systems drive measurable cultural change - turning innovation from an event into an ongoing organisational capability.

Your Cloud, Your Control

Hosted in your environment. Full data sovereignty. SSO integration, advanced access controls, audit logs, and compliance-ready architecture. Your intellectual property never leaves your infrastructure.

Most people writing about AI and innovation have done neither. George Krasadakis has done both - architecting, building, and patenting pioneering AI systems since before "machine learning" was a buzzword. Five ventures. 90+ delivered projects. 24+ patents. And a fundamental belief that innovation should be accessible to everyone, not just those with six-figure consulting budgets.

With 25+ years spanning five ventures and senior roles at Microsoft, Accenture, GSK and ResMed, George has experienced innovation from every angle - inventor, founder, corporate leader, and innovation architect. His first startup, Datamine Decision Support Systems, pioneered data-driven intelligent decision-making for 20+ multinational corporations. His patent portfolio - AI negotiation agents, voice-driven ideation systems, natural language processing architectures - reads like a present-day AI pitch deck, except he patented these systems a decade ago. His published research has been cited 600+ times.

Throughout his career, George witnessed the same patterns repeat: brilliant ideas abandoned to politics and inertia. Innovation programmes that produced impressive labs and hackathons but no real outcomes. Companies focused on appearing innovative - what he calls "innovation theatre" - rather than systematically creating value. He codified these observations into the Six Innovation Deficits, a framework explaining why most corporate innovation fails. The problem was never a lack of ideas. It was the absence of a system.

In 2020, George published "The Innovation Mode" - codifying the systematic framework that powers Ainna. The book has been adopted by innovation teams worldwide and praised as "a must-read for innovation managers, executives, and entrepreneurs." His follow-up, Innovation Mode 2.0: Designing Innovative Companies in the Era of Artificial Intelligence, was published in January 2026.

George is also the creator of the "60 Leaders" series - collaborative books bringing together diverse perspectives from global thought leaders. 60 Leaders on Innovation and 60 Leaders on Artificial Intelligence serve as essential resources for organisations seeking practical innovation wisdom, created and distributed on principles of open collaboration and knowledge sharing.

"The single most important success factor of corporate innovation is a vivid environment characterized by 'diversity of thought' and a special 'discovery mode.' In such an environment, there is both a plurality of ideas - coming from all directions and across the hierarchy - and the readiness to exploit them. For the first time, we have a platform that enables that environment at scale."

That vision extends beyond software. With over 100 published articles on innovation, AI, and product development, George is a recognised voice in the global innovation community.

With Ainna, we're proving that every product innovator, regardless of budget or organisational resources, can access the same strategic frameworks once locked inside the world's best-resourced innovation programmes. Every company can reach the "Innovation Mode." We're building the system that gets them there.
