AI advisory that actually works.

We help established businesses discover where AI creates the most value, implement the right solutions, and keep improving over time. Three tiers. Each one builds trust before the next commitment.

Start small. Prove value.
Then go deeper.

Enterprise consulting firms charge $200K+ for AI strategy—built for companies with $1B+ in revenue. We bring the same strategic rigor to businesses generating $1M–$20M. Three tiers, each one proving value before you commit further.

Most clients start with Tier 1—a focused discovery that maps your operations and identifies where AI can make the biggest impact. From there, you decide what's worth pursuing. No pressure, no long-term commitment required upfront.

Each tier builds naturally on the previous one. You'll see measurable results before deciding to go further.

AI Discovery & Roadmap

“What should we actually do?”
📅 3–4 weeks
👥 2–3 discovery sessions
📊 Includes CLARITY Assessment

Cut through the AI hype and identify the specific opportunities that will create real value for your business. You'll leave with a clear, prioritized plan—not generic recommendations pulled from a template.

We start with our proprietary CLARITY Assessment—the same type of comprehensive diagnostic that Fortune 500 companies pay six figures for—163 questions across 7 operational areas, designed specifically for businesses with 5–200 employees. We then conduct discovery sessions with you and your key team members to understand where time gets lost, where information gets stuck, and where AI can make the biggest difference.

What You Get
✓
Current State Assessment—Where your time goes, what's manual, and what's causing friction
✓
AI Opportunity Map—Specific use cases ranked by impact and feasibility for your business
✓
Readiness Evaluation—Your data, tools, and team capabilities assessed honestly
✓
Prioritized Roadmap—Phased implementation plan with estimated ROI for each opportunity
✓
Tool Recommendations—Specific solutions matched to your situation and budget

Tier 2

AI Implementation

“Let's build it right.”
📅 8–16 weeks
⚙ Phased rollout
👥 Team workshops + owner sessions

Execute the roadmap. We select the right tools, configure them for your business, integrate them into your existing workflows, and train your team to actually use them. We don't just recommend—we help make it real.

Implementation follows a clear principle: start with the highest-impact, lowest-risk opportunity. Prove value before expanding scope. Build your team's capability, not dependency on us. Document everything so it's sustainable after we leave.

Consider a 25-person firm where proposal creation takes 12 hours a week. Harvard Business School research shows AI-guided workflows can reduce task time by 25% and improve output quality by 40%. That's the kind of operational gain Tier 2 targets—specific to your business, measured against your baseline.

What You Get
✓
Tool Selection & Setup—Evaluate options, configure chosen solutions for your specific operations
✓
Workflow Integration—Connect AI tools to your existing systems and processes
✓
Process Documentation—Updated SOPs reflecting your new AI-assisted workflows
✓
Team Training—Hands-on sessions so your people actually use the tools with confidence
✓
Adoption Monitoring—Track usage, identify resistance, and course-correct early
✓
ROI Measurement—Before-and-after metrics on time saved and quality improved
Client Outcome
Working AI-enhanced processes, a trained team, documented workflows, and measurable results you can see in daily operations.
Implementation Principles
▶Start with the highest-impact, lowest-risk opportunity first
▶Prove value before expanding scope to additional areas
▶Build internal capability, not dependency on us
▶Document everything so it's sustainable after we leave
▶Measure results at every phase so you know it's working
Tier 3

AI Advisory Retainer

“Keep getting better.”
📅 Monthly retainer
📞 60–90 min strategic review
🔄 Quarterly opportunity refresh

A full-time AI strategist costs $150K–$250K per year—and most businesses in the $1M–$20M range don't need one full-time. The advisory retainer gives you ongoing strategic guidance at a fraction of that cost.

AI moves fast. Your business keeps changing. The advisory retainer gives you a trusted partner who keeps your AI tools optimized, evaluates new opportunities as they emerge, and ensures you stay ahead—without requiring you to become an AI expert.

Each month includes a strategic review session, ad-hoc guidance between sessions, and quarterly reassessments to keep your roadmap current.

What You Get
✓
Performance Review—Are your current AI tools delivering expected value?
✓
Optimization Guidance—Tune prompts, workflows, and configurations for better results
✓
New Opportunity Identification—What else in your business could benefit from AI?
✓
Tool Landscape Updates—What's new, what's relevant, and what's just hype
✓
Team Capability Building—Ongoing training and best practice sharing
✓
Problem-Solving—When something isn't working, we help fix it
Client Outcome
A trusted advisor keeping you current and effective with AI—without having to become an AI expert yourself.
Monthly Session Focus
▶Review AI tool usage and adoption metrics
▶Discuss friction points and new opportunities
▶Evaluate 1–2 new AI capabilities or tools
▶Plan next optimization or expansion
▶Answer questions and remove obstacles
