Where conversations start

Bring us the question you keep putting off.

Most of our work begins with one of these. Pick one to see how we'd approach it.

    AI

    Where will AI actually save us money?

    We map where time and money go today, then test AI against the most expensive tasks first. You get a ranked list with costs and payback, not a vision statement.

    How we work

    From a second opinion to a seat at your table.

    Three ways in, in order of how closely we work with you. Most clients start with the first.

    1

    Advice

    A sounding board for the CEO, board or investors. Strategy, due diligence, and a second opinion before the big decision.

    Ad hoc or monthly retainer
    2

    Build the first version

    For AI ideas that need proof. We build a working version so you can see it run before anyone writes a budget, and train your team on it.

    Fixed scope, weeks not months
    3

    Fractional CIO, CTO or CISO

    A part-time seat at your leadership table, backed by the team. We own the roadmap, the suppliers and the audit, and build the in-house team that takes it on.

    One to three days a week
    Both sides of the table

    We've been the ones being audited, and the ones asking the questions.

    KPMGDeloitteNorth HighlandOpenAI

    Across SOC 2, NIST 800-171, CMMC, FedRAMP and ISO 27001, we've worked through audits with KPMG, Deloitte and North Highland, and joined their teams as associate consultants on focused projects. On AI, our founder is an OpenAI ambassador. So we know what an auditor will ask, what the tools can really do, and what it takes to have the answer ready.
