What Changes

What your firm looks like after

Outcomes, not features. Here's what your team actually experiences.

🤖
AI for Your Practice
Contracts drafted in minutes. Client intake that handles itself. Research that took a day takes twenty minutes. We configure Microsoft Copilot, Claude, or OpenAI for your specific workflow.
📧
Microsoft 365 & Exchange
Proper email, Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive — migrated from whatever you're running now, secured, and working. Your team communicates and shares files without thinking about it.
📄
Document Automation
Intake forms that pre-fill files. Engagement letters that draft from templates. Invoices that generate from time entries. The paperwork slowing your staff down — automated.
🔐
Security & Compliance
Nobody gets into a client file who shouldn't. MFA on every account. Data loss prevention. Audit trails. Built for healthcare, legal, and financial compliance requirements.
☁️
Cloud & Infrastructure
Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, AWS, Azure — or a mix. We configure it, connect it, and make sure nothing falls through the gap between platforms. On-prem too.
🎓
Handoff & Training
Your staff gets trained on what we built. You get documentation written for humans, not engineers. You won't need us to keep it running — but we're available if you do.
🔒
Secure Remote Access
Closed system. Invite who you want — staff, accountant, remote office. Tailscale puts every device (phones included) on a private network nobody else can see. RustDesk lets you support any machine, from anywhere, privately. No VPN headaches, no exposed ports.
🎟️
AI Workshops
Not ready for a full engagement? Start with a workshop. Two hours, hands-on, plain English. Public sessions $149/person. Private group at your office: $1,500 flat for up to 25 people — tailored to your industry.

🗝️
AI Onboarding & Account Setup
New to AI? We get you in the driver's seat. We set up your Anthropic or OpenAI account, configure API keys, wire in your first tools, and walk you through real-world use — hands on, plain English, no jargon. You leave with a working setup and the confidence to use it.

Beyond AI

The full picture

AI gets you in the door. But once we're talking, most clients realize there's more we can fix. Here's everything on the menu — one person, one call, no agency markup.

🛒
E-Commerce Setup
Shopify or WooCommerce — products loaded, payments connected, shipping configured. Selling online in a week. No agency, no bloat. From $1,500.
🌐
Website & Web Apps
Fast, mobile-first sites and custom web applications. Client portals, intake forms, internal dashboards, booking systems — built and handed off clean.
📧
Email Migration
Moving from GoDaddy, Yahoo, or an old server to Exchange Online or Google Workspace. Zero downtime, all mail and contacts preserved, staff trained the same day.
💬
Collaboration Stack
Teams, Slack, or Google Workspace — evaluated, deployed, and configured for how your team actually works. Not just installed. Actually set up. Compare platforms →
🖥️
Device & Desktop Management
Windows, Mac, or mixed — Intune, Entra ID, remote support via RustDesk. Every machine managed, updated, and locked down. Staff gets help fast; you get oversight.
☁️
Cloud & Hosting
Azure, AWS, DigitalOcean — or just a solid web server. We pick what fits your budget and scale. No overselling, no lock-in to a platform you don't need.
📊
Reporting & Dashboards
Custom dashboards that pull from your actual systems — billing, time tracking, CRM, HR. Executives see what matters. Staff stops making spreadsheets.
🤝
Don't see what you need?
If it involves technology and your business, the answer is probably yes. Call or email — 5 minutes to find out.

Engagement

How we work together

No surprises. No jargon. No disappearing after we're done.

01
Discovery Call
30 minutes. You tell me how your firm works today — what's slow, what's broken, what you wish technology did. No slides, no sales pitch.
02
Scope & Proposal
Plain-English proposal — exactly what we'll build, what it costs, how long it takes. No surprise charges, no scope creep.
03
Build
We show up — in person or remote — and build it. Progress updates in plain English. When we say done, it's done.
04
You Own It
Your team is trained. Runbooks written in plain English. You're not dependent on us — but we're available for support if you need us.
