Does this sound familiar?

You know AI could help. You're just not sure where to start, or what to trust.

There are so many tools, changing so fast, that you can't tell which ones to trust.
You're not sure how AI would plug into the systems you already run.
Staff are using personal ChatGPT accounts you can't see, and client details may be going in.
No one is sure what's safe to share, or what your insurer and clients expect.
You've tried a few things, and nothing has stuck.
Enquiries, quotes and reports are still built by hand, often after hours.

It can feel like the rest of the industry is further ahead. You don't need to become an AI expert to catch up. That's our job.

Your AI operating system

Everything your team needs, set up and connected

An AI operating system is the way AI runs in your business: the right tools, connected to your systems and information, with written rules and a team trained to use them. It can run on Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, a custom AI tool or a private model. Four steps get you there.

1
Find out your rulesPrivacy law, the EU AI Act, your professional rules, your insurer and your client contracts
→
2
Set up your governanceApproved tools, what information can go in, who checks and who decides, in writing
→
3
Pick your toolsThe jobs that matter most, in priority order, and the right AI for each
→
4
Train on the toolsOne-to-one for leaders, workshops for teams
→
Off and runningYour team using AI on real work, within the rules
Then: plugins for your jobsWe build your recurring tasks into Copilot or Claude as ready-made tools, so your team can do them without building anything themselves.
Every month: we run it with youNew jobs added as people level off, rules and settings kept current, new staff trained.
We're on your side of the table. We recommend tools on fit for your business, and we don't take commission from any provider.

guarantee

Your first team running on it, or we keep working at our cost

By day 30, your first team has the rules in writing, the tools set up, the agreed jobs running and each person able to do them. If any of that isn't in place, we keep working with you at our cost until it is.

After that, use tends to level off unless someone keeps it moving. That's what the monthly service is for.

Every month after that

We run your AI operating system with you

Each month, your team gets one more job taken off its plate, and everything already built keeps working.

One new job each monthWe build the next recurring task into your tools as a plugin or skill, test it and show the team how to use it.
Everything kept workingCopilot, Claude and the others change every month. We check what we've built, fix what breaks and switch on what helps.
Rules kept currentPolicy and register updated as providers change their terms, and AI questionnaires from insurers, clients or boards answered for you.
Your team supportedNew starters trained, a monthly clinic for the whole team, and questions answered within one business day.

You get a one-page report each month: who's using AI, what for, the estimated hours saved and next month's job. Every quarter, we review the whole system with you.

Yours to keep. Your policy, your register, your settings and every plugin we build belong to you. The first 90 days cover your setup and getting it running. After that it's month to month, and if you stop, everything stays with you.

Questions

Before you book

What is an AI operating system?

It's how AI runs in your business day to day: approved tools, connected to the systems and information you already have, with written rules and a team trained to use them. We build it around your business, on whichever tools fit.

We're a small business. Is this for us?

Yes. For a small team, the setup covers everyone, in about 30 days.

We're a large organisation. How does it work?

We start with an AI Blueprint: interviews with your key people, a review of your systems and a roadmap leadership can assess and fund. Then we set up one department at a time.

Our client information is sensitive.

Each tool is set up on business privacy terms, with written rules on what can go in. Where information can't leave your systems, an open model can run privately on systems you control.

We tried ChatGPT and nothing changed.

A tool on its own tends to sit unused. The setup adds what makes it stick: chosen jobs, training for each role and clear rules.

What if people stop using it?

Use often levels off after the first few months. Each month we add the next job, train new staff and keep the rules current, so it keeps moving.

Are we locked in?

No. The first 90 days cover your setup and getting it running. After that it's month to month, with 30 days' notice. Everything we set up and build is yours to keep.

Can we start with a training day?

Yes. Many teams do. If you continue with us within 30 days, the training day fee comes off your first month.

Do you give legal advice?

We identify the obligations that apply to your AI use and set up the policies and processes to meet them. Kristina Agustin is an admitted lawyer of the Supreme Court of NSW and does not practise law, so questions that need legal advice go to your own counsel.
