Legible
We explain what AI can and can’t do for your business in plain language — no buzzwords, no black boxes. You’ll understand every recommendation well enough to stand behind it.
AI strategy for small & mid-sized business
Make AI legible enough to bet your business on.
We’re the strategy firm for companies that don’t have an AI plan yet. We find where AI actually earns its keep, build the privacy and safety guardrails a regulated world demands, and hand you a plan you understand — and own.

The gap
You know AI matters. You just don’t have a plan for it.
Most small and mid-sized businesses are told AI will change everything, then left to figure out where to start. The tools are noisy, the advice swings between hype and homework, and the stakes — customer data, reputation, real money — are too high to guess. We exist to close that gap: to make AI legible, safe, and genuinely actionable for a business like yours.
Safe
Privacy and compliance are designed in from the first conversation, led by a practising AI and privacy lawyer. What you adopt should be safe to put in front of customers and regulators.
Actionable
You get a prioritized plan you can start on — sequenced by impact and effort, scoped to your reality, and yours to keep and run without us in the loop.
Where we help
Real problems, not AI for its own sake.
We start from the work you actually do and the friction you actually feel. These are the areas SMBs most often find AI earns its keep — but the honest answer sometimes is “not here, not yet,” and we’ll say so.
Marketing & sales
Turn scattered marketing effort into a repeatable engine — drafting, personalization, lead triage and follow-up that run in the background while you do the work only you can do.
Operations & automation
Find the repetitive, manual steps quietly eating your team’s week and replace them with automation that keeps a human check exactly where it counts.
Customer communications
Answer faster and more consistently — support replies, FAQs, and intake that stay on-brand and know when to hand off to a person.
Contracts & documents
Review, summarize, and draft routine documents in a fraction of the time — with the privacy and accuracy guardrails a legally-minded team insists on.
Data & analytics
Make the data you already collect answer plain-English questions, so decisions rest on what’s actually happening rather than a hunch.
Something else
Most businesses arrive with a problem, not a category. If AI can help, we’ll show you where — and if it can’t help yet, we’ll tell you that too.
How it works
From a plain-English conversation to a plan you own.
No login, no prep, no jargon. Our own process is AI-native, so the thinking comes back in days — not the months a traditional consulting engagement would take.
Tell us about your business
A short, guided conversation. You describe how your business actually runs and where the friction is — in your own words.
Get a tailored opportunity assessment
We map where AI is likely to pay off for you specifically — ranked by impact and effort, with the risks named up front and the dead ends flagged.
Choose how it’s delivered
Take a written AI roadmap you can act on and share, or book a working consult — a half-day or full-day focused on your priorities.
Act on a concrete, prioritized plan
You leave with specific next moves, in order, that your team can start on — and the guardrails documented so you can move with confidence.
Two ways to work together
Pick the format that fits how you decide.
Both start from the same tailored assessment. You choose the delivery.
Written AI roadmap
A documented plan, yours to keep.
A prioritized, plain-English roadmap: the opportunities worth pursuing, the sequence to pursue them in, the guardrails to put in place, and what “good” looks like. Built to be read and acted on by the people who run the business.
- Prioritized by impact and effort
- Privacy & safety guardrails spelled out
- Yours to keep, share, and run

Working consult
Time with us, focused on your priorities.
Hands-on time to pressure-test a decision, work through a specific workflow, or bring your team up to speed — with clear, actionable takeaways. Available as a half-day or a full-day.
- Half-day and full-day tiers
- Focused on your real priorities
- Clear takeaways you can act on

Who you’re working with
Advice you can trust because we understand the technology and the law it lives within.
We’re a two-person practice by design: an AI and privacy lawyer and a technical founder. That pairing is the point — you get recommendations that are both practical to build and safe to stand behind. No account managers, no hand-offs, no hype.

Questions, answered straight
What businesses ask us first.
What does this cost?
It depends on scope, and we keep it transparent. The opportunity assessment is where we scope the work; from there you choose a written roadmap or a consult, each with clear pricing shown before you commit. [PLACEHOLDER — confirm pricing model / starting figures]. You’ll never get an invoice for something you didn’t agree to.
Is my data private and secure?
Privacy is the starting point, not an afterthought — one of us is an AI and privacy lawyer. We minimize what we collect, we’re clear about how anything you share is used, and we design every recommendation with data protection and confidentiality in mind. [PLACEHOLDER — link to your formal privacy policy / DPA once published].
What can AI realistically do for a small business — and what can’t it?
Honestly: a lot of the routine, and none of the magic. It’s genuinely good at drafting, summarizing, triaging, and speeding up repetitive work. It is not a replacement for judgment, and it makes mistakes that need a human check. A big part of our job is telling you which is which — including when the honest answer is “not yet.”
How much of my time will this take?
The initial conversation takes minutes. The assessment happens on our side. A consult is a half or full day you schedule when it suits you. We’re deliberately built to respect that your time is the scarce resource.
Do I need technical knowledge or existing AI tools?
No. This is built for businesses starting from zero. We meet you where you are and explain everything in plain language — the plan is written to be understood by the people who run the business, not just an IT team.
What do I actually walk away with?
A clear, prioritized plan you own: the specific opportunities worth pursuing, in what order, with the privacy and safety guardrails spelled out. Whether it’s a written roadmap or a consult, it’s built to be acted on by your team — without us in the loop.
