A managing partner and an engineer reviewing a printed project plan at a drafting table in a loft studio

For consultancies and engineering firms, 5 to 100 people

The proposal is won. Then the handoff gets hard to follow.

A review of the one workflow where delivery slips, and AI drafting that stays inside your firm's rules. Nothing unreviewed reaches a client, and nothing unreviewed gets billed.

Your firm runs on projects. Every project crosses three or four systems.

Discovery notes live in one place, the proposal in another, the project plan in a third. The boundary of the workflow is still argued, and nobody owns the next action.

ProposalWon, then retyped into the project tool by whoever has time.
KickoffStarts without half of what the proposal promised.
The first errorPeople go back to the old way, and the new tool sits unused.
"There is a difference between using AI to draft and using it to think. The first is a productivity multiplier. The second is a liability you are billing the client for."A consultant on r/consulting. That line is the whole design brief for this page.

Three ways in. Start with the one workflow.

The review comes first. AI drafting for your consultants comes next. Agent governance only if you already run agents and ask for it.

What is inside each offer.

Every line is agreed in writing before work starts. If a written check fails, the failure is documented and reworked before handoff.

What it does for your role.

AI takes the repeat drafting: proposals, briefs, updates, handoff packs. You keep the judgment, and a person reviews before anything leaves.

Managing partner

What it takes off your plate

  • Proposal first drafts from discovery notes
  • Scope checks before an SOW goes out
  • A weekly brief across active projects

What you get

More partner hours on judgment and clients, less on first drafts.

How it stays safe

No-training model on client work. A partner reviews before anything is client-facing.

One workflow, one lap at a time.

Nothing is built before the workflow is understood. The build can be done by anyone, including us.

Safe to bill

Safe enough for client work.

  • A no-training model on client work.
  • Sources shown on every research brief. You decide what is true enough to use.
  • A partner reviews before any client sees it.
  • Nothing unreviewed gets billed.
  • One written page of firm AI rules: tools, data and review.
  • Client files stay off until you approve them.

Questions partners ask first.

Will it work with the tools we already use?

The work is scoped around the tools your firm already uses. Where a system cannot support the workflow, that is named in the build boundary before anything starts.

Do you build it too?

The review ends in a written plan you can build with anyone. If you want us to build it, that is quoted separately after the review.

What does it cost?

Every offer on this site is scoped and priced after a short brief, and the quote is in writing before you pay anything.

Is our client data used to train AI models?

Client work runs on a no-training model, inside your firm's written AI rules, and client files stay off until you approve them.

What if a check fails?

If a written acceptance check fails, the failure is documented and reworked before handoff.
