Put AI to work safely in your organization
Your staff are probably already using AI. We help you choose the tools, set the rules for using them and protect your data while your team gets the benefits. Engineer-led and based in Baton Rouge since 2003.

What’s included
How we help you use AI
We help you get the productivity without putting client data or compliance at risk.
Are we ready for AI?
AI readiness review
We look at your data, permissions, licensing and compliance obligations and tell you what to fix before rolling out AI tools.
What are the rules?
AI acceptable use policy
A written policy covering approved tools, accounts and what information must never go into an AI tool.
What if staff paste patient details into an AI tool?
Unapproved AI tools blocked
Our web filter keeps staff off AI tools nobody approved, so patient and personal information stays out of strangers’ hands. If staff need AI, we steer them to a tool we can secure. We also help find AI apps, browser extensions and note-takers already in use.
What can Copilot see?
Permission cleanup
AI assistants can see whatever a user can see, so we tighten file and mailbox access first.
Should we turn on Copilot?
Microsoft 365 Copilot setup
Licensing, configuration and rollout of Copilot inside your existing Microsoft 365 environment.
How do we use it well?
Staff training
Guidance on writing good prompts, checking AI output and handling sensitive information.
What can we automate?
Workflow automation
We look for repetitive tasks where automation and AI can save time, and build them carefully.
Do you use AI yourselves?
AI in our own help desk
AI classifies and triages every new support ticket, and a technician reviews it before work starts. Tickets reach the right person faster, and a person still makes every decision.
How we work
AI with guardrails
AI tools can save real time, but anything typed into them may leave your control. For healthcare, financial and legal organizations that can become a compliance problem. We put the guardrails in first so your team can use AI with confidence.
- Policy before tools. Everyone knows what is approved and what data stays out.
- Approved tools only. Our web filter blocks AI tools nobody approved.
- Compliance-aware. HIPAA, the FTC Safeguards Rule and professional confidentiality rules considered from the start.
Getting started
How we roll out AI safely
Four steps, and the first one is a conversation.
01
Start with the risk conversation
Before we touch a computer, we sit down with you. We ask what you are trying to accomplish, how things work today and what keeps going wrong. You leave knowing where your gaps are.
02
Set the rules
An AI acceptable use policy and an approved tool list for your organization.
03
Roll out
Tools configured, access tightened and staff trained.
04
Improve
Regular reviews as tools, risks and your needs change.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is AI consulting?
AI consulting helps an organization choose AI tools, set rules for them and protect its data while staff use them. For us that means an AI readiness review, a written AI acceptable use policy, permission cleanup and Copilot setup in Microsoft 365, blocking AI tools nobody approved, and staff training. We also look for repetitive tasks where AI or plain automation saves real time.
What are good alternatives to big AI consulting firms?
For organizations with 10 to several hundred staff, the IT provider that already manages your Microsoft 365, security and compliance is often the better fit, because AI risk lives in those same permissions and policies. We do this work as engineers based in Baton Rouge since 2003, and our owner performs the onboarding compliance review himself.
How do you evaluate AI consulting firms?
Find out what they check before turning on any tool: file and mailbox permissions, licensing and your compliance obligations. A good firm writes an AI acceptable use policy, explains how patient or client data stays out of unapproved tools, and signs a business associate agreement if HIPAA applies. Ask, too, where they’d advise against using AI.
