AI consulting for small businesses
AI consulting for small businesses is a written plan for where AI can take work off your team, which tools to buy and which to build, and what each will cost to run every month. It is for owners of small and mid-sized businesses who want to use AI without guessing. It takes 4 to 6 weeks from the signed scope to the finished plan.

What you get.
- A map of the work in your business that repeats, with the hours each part takes today
- A ranked list of where AI can take over or speed up that work, with the reasoning for each
- Buy or build for each item: the tool we would buy, or what we would build and why
- The monthly running cost of each recommendation, written out line by line
- A risk note for each item: what data it touches and what happens when it gets something wrong
- A written roadmap in the order we would do the work, and a review call to walk through it
What it is not.
- A plan, not a build. Building any part of it is a separate scope (AI agents and automation, or web apps).
- Training your staff on the tools is not included unless the scope names it.
How a job runs.
One call
Thirty minutes with the founder about the problem, not a pitch.
Scope in writing
What we build, what we do not, the price and the date.
Paid upfront
Full payment against the written scope. No hourly billing.
Build and hand over
We ship, show you how it runs, and stay on if you want us to.
Questions.
Do I need to have data ready?
No. We start from how the work is done today. If a recommendation needs data you do not keep yet, the plan says so and says how to start keeping it.
Can you build what the plan recommends?
Yes, as a separate written scope once the plan is done. You are not obliged to have us build it.
How much does it cost?
After the call we send a written scope with one fixed quote. You pay it upfront and there is no hourly billing.
Is AI consulting worth it for a small business?
It is when people spend hours every week on work that repeats. The plan starts by measuring those hours, so you see what AI would save before anything is bought or built. If the hours are not there, the plan says so.
What does an AI consultant actually do?
Finds the work AI can take over in your business, picks the tool to buy or the thing to build for each part, and puts a monthly running cost on each. Here the result is a written plan you keep, and we walk you through it on a call.
Start with a 30 minute call.
