AI implementation for 10–100 person Australian companies

Everyone wants AI. Nobody knows how to do it. We do.

Every board wants an AI plan. Most teams have a few Claude licences on someone’s credit card and no idea what to build first.

We make Australian companies AI-native.

We rebuild how your company runs, from the foundations up: one AI brain that knows your business, tools your whole team uses daily, agents that take the busywork. Built on your servers. Owned by you.

The method

Three layers. Clear ownership.

We don’t sell you a pile of disconnected bots. We rebuild how your company runs, from the foundations up, and hand your team the keys.

  • Your CRM, comms, emails, finance system, and files, linked into one institutional memory AI can actually use.
  • Humans ask it questions. Agents read from it and write to it. Everyone works from the same truth.
  • The unsexy, load-bearing work nobody internally wants to own. It elevates everything built on top.
  • Most clients find information 60–80% faster within 30 days. The brain answers instead of a person.

  • Stuff that makes the whole company better, not one workflow: drafting, answering, reporting, visibility.
  • Maintained by us, forever. When models change or things break, that's our job, not yours.
  • Teams typically recover 3–5 hours per person per week once Infrastructure is live.

  • The team that owns the workflow usually builds the better agent, so we teach them, with perfect infrastructure underneath.
  • Rather have it done? We build them for you. Same foundation, same quality bar.
  • Each agent typically replaces 5–15 hours of repeatable manual work per week. Built once, runs forever.

Specced once. Maintained forever.

Data sovereignty

Your data never leaves your business.

Everything we build runs on your own servers and your own accounts. We never store your data, you own all of the IP, and if we disappeared tomorrow it would all keep running. It is model-agnostic too: Claude today, whatever wins tomorrow.

Free preview

See your AI audit before you ever talk to us

Drop in your company website. Our AI reads it and drafts the same report our audit delivers: opportunity matrix, sequenced build order, scoped builds with ROI, and who we’d interview. About 30 seconds, free.

The same five-minute survey every audit client fills in, cut down to taps. Each answer unlocks one more build, scoped around how your team actually works. Skip whatever you like.

How it works

Your team tells us what to build. Literally.

No year-long proof of concepts. No strategy decks. An audit that turns your team’s own words into a roadmap, then working systems within weeks.

1

Audit

$2,500 flatAbout 7 days

We interview your team, 30 minutes each, up to 10 people. Those conversations become the spec. The fee comes straight back off your build, doubled if you start within 30 days.

$5k–$25k builds1–2 weeks each

The Company AI Brain plus your first agents, on your infrastructure, inside the tools you already use. No migration, no new platforms.

Maintain

From $500/monthImproving every month

It never breaks. We upgrade it as the models improve. Skills change weekly, and we keep up so you don't have to.

Worried how your team will take it?

The interviews are framed around one question: “what would make your job more enjoyable?” Your people leave excited, not scared. It’s their ideas that end up on the roadmap.

The humans

Change is scary. Pick people you trust.

AI transformation isn’t a software purchase. It’s a partnership. These are the people who’ll be in your corner.

FAQ

You’d ask us these on the call anyway

Every question below is a real question from a real discovery call. So here are the answers, upfront.

Sensible instinct. Everything we build runs on your own servers and accounts, ring-fenced per person using your existing permissions: payroll stays with payroll. Nothing sits with us, and if we disappeared tomorrow it would all keep running. No AI policy yet? We write it with you first, so your whole team knows what they can and can't plug in.

Clients under AFSL obligations run this today: VC funds, family offices.

Neither. You own all the IP, and what we build is deliberately model-agnostic: point Claude at it today, point whatever wins next year at it tomorrow. The models will keep leapfrogging each other; your foundation shouldn't care.

“Owning our own workflows, not depending on a vendor” is why clients pick us.

No, and that instinct delays companies by a year. The brain makes sense of messy data: spreadsheets, inboxes, even three ERPs from old acquisitions. It actually cleans backwards, because wrong facts surface fast once everything is connected. Don't let the cleanup be the blocker.

“It's all in the inboxes” is the starting state for most of our clients.

The audit is a flat $2,500 for up to 10 interviews, and the full fee is credited towards your build. Start the build within 30 days of your report and we credit double, $5,000 off. A Company AI Brain is $10k–$25k. Agents are $5k–$20k each. Maintenance is $500 – $1,000 per month. Everything is priced to be less than half the ROI it returns, and if the numbers don't work for your business, we'll tell you on the call.

One client's maths: “$1,000 a month is the equivalent of a day of my time.”

Parts of it, yes, and they should. The team that owns a workflow usually builds the better agent, so we onboard your people to build that layer themselves, or we build it for you, your call. What nobody internally wants to build (or worse, maintain) is the foundation: the brain, the cross-team plumbing, the governance. That's the layer we own: specced once, maintained forever.

The DIY pattern we hear: it works for a week, then breaks, and you have a day job.

It's the most common fear, and we handle it head-on. The audit interviews are framed around one question: what would make your job more enjoyable? We're removing the work a machine should do, not the people. Among our clients so far, nobody has downsized; they've redirected the hours into clients and the work that grows the business.

Owner-reported: 8 hours a week back on reporting alone.

You've read the horror stories. So have we. You own your own Claude or OpenAI account. Our fees never include AI usage costs, and team subscriptions keep those flat and predictable. Maintenance is a flat monthly fee covering fixes, model upgrades, and improvements: no surprise bills from either side.

A brain that's right on day one and wrong by day 365 is worse than no brain: one wrong answer costs your team's trust. That's why maintenance is the product, not an afterthought. Daily ingestion, weekly accuracy passes, model upgrades as they ship, for $500 – $1,000 per month. It becomes our problem, not yours.

Guarantee: your whole team getting value in 30 days, or we keep working free.
