Common questions

Frequently asked questions.

Everything you need to know about working with Local AI.

Getting started
A straight conversation about your business, not a pitch. We talk about what you do, where time gets lost, and where you want to grow. By the end, we know whether AI can genuinely help, and where to start if it can.
A personalised report that lands in your inbox within 24 hours of our chat. It sets out the single highest-value place to start, plus other opportunities we spot along the way, in plain English.
Really free. No catch. The conversation and the Snapshot are genuinely useful on their own, even if you decide not to go further. We'd rather earn your business by giving value first.
None at all. We explain everything in plain language. If we use a term you don't recognise, stop us. That's on us, not you.
Almost always, yes. Every business has repeating admin: bookings, invoicing, follow-ups, reporting. If your week has tasks like that, there's usually something worth automating. If we don't think AI genuinely helps, we'll say so.
Working together
A free 30-minute conversation, then your AI Snapshot within 24 hours. If you want to go ahead, we build, test, and hand it over, typically in three to six weeks, with the option to stay on for ongoing management.
Joel, directly, backed by a small technical team. No account managers, no handoffs. You deal with the same person from first call to launch.
Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Microsoft Copilot, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Notion, Perplexity, and Slack, among others. We pick whatever fits how you already work, not what's trendy.
Yes. We use reputable, established tools with proper data protections, and we're careful about what goes where. If your business handles sensitive data, we build with that in mind from day one.
You do. Every workflow, agent, and automation we build belongs to your business outright. No licensing fees to us, no lock-in.
Every build comes with proper handover so you understand what's been built and how it works. No locked-in contracts. If you'd rather run things with minimal reliance on us, we design for that from the start.
Build projects are flat-fee and scoped upfront, and coaching is a simple per-session rate with no lock-in. You always know the number before we start.
