AI consulting services for small businesses

Advise. Teach. Build.

Think of these as a ladder, not a menu you have to finish. Most clients start with a conversation, and go exactly as far as their business needs — no further.

01 · Consulting — the front door

Figure out where AI actually helps your business

Every week there's a new tool you're "supposed" to be using. Most of it doesn't apply to you, and some of it would actively waste your money. Consulting is how we cut through that together.

If you landed here searching for a small business AI consultant, this is the front door: we find the repetitive work, decide whether AI belongs there, and build a practical next step.

Who it's for

Owners and ops leaders at 10 to 500 employee businesses who are curious about AI but skeptical of the hype — and rightly so. You don't need a technical background. You need to know your own business, which you already do.

What you get

  • A walkthrough of your actual workflows to find the repetitive, time-eating tasks worth automating — and the ones that should stay human.
  • A plain-language read on which AI (or non-AI!) approach fits each one. Sometimes a simple script beats calling AI entirely — cheaper and more reliable. We'll tell you when.
  • A practical, prioritized plan you can act on — with us or without us. You own it either way.

02 · Training & upskilling

Learn to direct AI to build your own tools

The goal isn't to turn your team into programmers. It's to teach people how to use AI without blindly trusting it: how to ask precisely, verify the answer, spot when ChatGPT is making things up, and turn a real work problem into a small useful tool.

Who it's for

Ops teams, managers, and individuals who want to become the ones at work who actually "get" AI — especially when the current pattern is "ChatGPT said this" followed by nobody checking whether it is true.

How the training is built

  • Excel first. Nearly everyone already lives in a spreadsheet, so that's where we start — it's the fastest early win, and the moment AI stops feeling abstract and starts feeling real.
  • Asking precisely is the centerpiece skill. The gap between a useless AI answer and a useful one is almost always the question. We drill this hard, because it's the skill that transfers to everything else.
  • IT as an ally, not an obstacle. We teach the sanctioned way to build things — the safe alternative to risky "shadow IT" workarounds that get people in trouble. Your IT department will thank you.
  • Capstone: a real browser extension. By the end, you direct AI through building a genuine tool you'll actually use — proof to yourself that this is real.

03 · Ad-hoc development

Or skip the learning curve — just have it built

Sometimes you don't want a plan or a course. You want the spreadsheet that fills itself in, the report that writes itself, the file mess that sorts itself out. Fair enough — that's what this door is for.

This is also the door for the work people have written off as "this can't be done" or "this would take forever." Sometimes they are right. Often, the manual version would take forever, but the automated version is a small script.

Who it's for

Businesses that know exactly what's eating their time and would rather point at it than build it themselves.

What you get

  • Small, sturdy tools built for your actual work: scripts, data tools, simple internal utilities.
  • Built the honest way — if a plain deterministic script does the job better than AI, that's what you get. No paying a "token tax" for AI calls a simple script makes unnecessary.
  • Tools you own, with a plain-language explanation of what they do and how to run them. No lock-in, no mystery boxes.
