An AI consultant who shows you where automation fits before you spend on it

For owners who have heard many pitches and want a straight read
Vendors will tell you AI can do everything. Staff have a list of things they want help with. Somewhere in between is a short list of projects that would pay off in your business.
Consulting is for finding that list. It suits companies of any size that want a clear plan before they spend on tools, subscriptions or a build.

What is in the roadmap
Map
Your workflows, written down
How enquiries, orders, bookings and reporting move through the business today, with the pain points marked.
Ranking
Candidates ranked by effort and value
Each possible automation is described in plain terms, with what it would connect to and what it needs from you.
Tools
Tool recommendations
Which tools suit each case, including options that are not ours, and what each costs to run.
Risk
Privacy and platform checks
Where customer data is involved, what the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and the messaging platforms' rules mean for the design.
Not now
What to leave alone
Ideas that are not worth building yet, and why.
Next
A starting point
One recommended first project with a scope outline. A build quote is available if you want one.

AI for companies of different sizes
Solo and micro
One or two processes
Often an off-the-shelf tool is enough. The roadmap says so when that is the case.
Small teams
A ranked shortlist
Opportunities ranked by effort and effect, so the first build is the one that matters most.
Mid-sized
Working with an IT lead
The scope is written so your technical lead can review it, and so it can be built by us or by someone else.
How we stay tool-neutral
Each option is scored on the same criteria: effort to set up, effect on staff and customers, the data it needs, privacy risk and running cost. When an off-the-shelf tool does the job, the roadmap recommends it. A custom build is justified only when no ready-made tool fits.
The roadmap is usable whether you build with us, with another provider or with your own team. Consulting can be bought on its own, or followed by a build scoped from the roadmap.
What it costs

Questions we get asked
Do I have to hire you to build afterwards?
No. The roadmap is yours and written so another team or your own staff could use it.
Is consulting only for large companies?
No. It also suits small businesses, where one well-chosen automation can matter a great deal.
Will you recommend AI even if I do not need it?
The roadmap includes a section on what not to automate. If a simpler fix works, it says so.
Who reads my business information?
Our team only, and we agree in writing what is shared and how it is stored before we start.
