Old Guard TechnologyGet more done with the same people
AI can take hours of admin off your week. I'll show you where, set it up safely, and look after the IT underneath it.
You deal with one person who knows your systems — not a ticket queue.
Who it's for
Small and medium businesses with 5 to 50 people and no one in-house looking after IT. Owners who keep hearing about AI and aren't sure where to start, staff who just need things to work, and a server in the back room nobody wants to think about.
What you get
Put AI to work
Find the jobs that eat your week — quotes, invoices, intake forms, email — and hand them to AI and automation.
Use it safely
The right AI tool, set up so it only sees what each person should see, with clear rules about what staff can put into it.
Keep it running
Monitoring, patching and support for your servers, network, Microsoft 365 and Azure. Problems get caught before your staff notice them.
Lock it down
MFA, endpoint protection, backups and a proper Microsoft 365 security setup — the things your cyber insurance questionnaire asks about.
Stop overpaying
Licences and renewals tracked in one place, so you're not paying for seats nobody uses or auto-renewing things you forgot about.
How it works
No surprises. You know what you're paying before any work starts.

A free call
20 minutes, no bill. Tell me what's going on and I'll tell you honestly whether I can help.
-
Then pick a starting point
Curious about AI? A time-waster review: two hours walking through your week together. You leave with your three biggest time sinks and a one-page plan for what AI could take off your plate.
Want the full picture? An IT, Security & AI Readiness Assessment: a fixed-price look at your whole setup. You get a written report — what's wrong, what matters most, and what it costs to fix.
-
Then the work
AI projects, a monthly plan, or both. Everything quoted up front.
Good times to call
- Your staff are already pasting work into ChatGPT, and nobody has decided what's okay to put in it.
- You want to try AI but don't know where to start.
- You're paying for Copilot or ChatGPT seats and nobody is really using them.
- You're still on Windows Server 2016. Support ends January 12, 2027. After that there are no more security fixes.
- You still have Windows 10 machines. Support ended October 2025.
- Your cyber insurance renewal is coming up and the questionnaire asks about MFA, backups and endpoint protection.
- Your current IT provider isn't getting back to you.
