Consulting — Team Training, Done-for-You Setup, Ongoing AI Management | AiOn Systems
Three ways to engage

Pick the shape that fits your team.

Some teams want the skill in-house. Some want the thing working yesterday. Some want both hands off. All three run on the same free platform.

Teach your team

Role-specific workshops so AI lives in the workflow, not in scattered personal accounts. Audit, training, co-build, runbooks, office hours — your people come out operating it like senior AI users.

Programs from $4,500

Done-for-you setup

We map where the hours go, then build the automations that take them off your plate — inbound triage, content production, lead research, reporting. The platform runs them; we keep them running until handoff.

Part of every program

Ongoing management

You keep running the business; we keep the AI running — monitoring, maintenance, updates, and a human who answers when you call. Month to month, no lock-in.

$3,500/month

Where it hurts

Sound familiar? That's the work we take.

We start every engagement by finding where the hours actually go. These are the ones that come up almost every time.

Email & inbox overload

Triaged, drafted, sorted — handled.

Scheduling & calendar chaos

Booked, reminded, time-zone-safe.

Project follow-through

Open loops chased before they die.

Content & blog writing

Drafted in your voice, on schedule.

Lead gen & CRM pipeline

Researched, drafted, tracked.

Research & reporting

Briefings delivered, not promised.

Data privacy

On-site option — it never leaves the building.

Disconnected tools

Copy-paste replaced by actual plumbing.

The program

One engagement. Three phases.

12-week program by default. Compressible to 6 weeks, extensible to a quarter.

01

Audit & inventory

A deep read on your stack, your workflows, and crucially — every AI subscription, login, and shadow account already in the building. We map what's being used, by whom, with what data, and what it's costing.

02

Consolidation & training

We migrate your team off the scatter of personal accounts and onto one shared AI workspace — open-weight models running on your own infrastructure, one login, governed access, shared prompt library. Role-specific workshops on top of it. Recorded, with playbooks they keep.

03

Rollout & reinforcement

Weeks of co-build inside the workspace — we ship the first two automations alongside your team, write the runbooks, then 60 days of weekly office hours so adoption doesn't stall after we leave.

Deliverables

Six concrete deliverables.

AI inventory & audit

20-page assessment of every account, subscription, and shadow workflow currently in the building — plus the three highest-ROI plays we can ship inside a quarter.

Consolidated workspace

Your team migrated onto one shared AI platform — the free AiOn stack or your existing tools, single sign-on, role-based access, shared context, audit trail.

Shared prompt & agent library

Tested prompts and agent configs your whole team uses — versioned, commented, and visible. New hires inherit the institutional knowledge on day one.

Two shipped automations

We build the first two end-to-end inside the workspace — inbound triage, content production, lead research, or reporting.

Adoption scoreboard

Dashboard tracking who's using what across the platform, hours saved, revenue impact. Built into the workspace, not a separate report.

60-day office hours

Weekly drop-in sessions for two months after build, so questions get answered before they become blockers.

The retainer

Ongoing management — like an MSP, but for your AI.

The platform is free to download — and unforgiving to run. For $3,500/month we keep it alive: we audit what you do, automate what we can, train your team on the rest, and stay on call. Month to month.

Keep it running

Monitoring, maintenance, patches, model updates. Issues get caught and fixed before they reach your team.

Keep it useful

Strategy between sessions, new automations as your processes change, a roadmap that's yours — not a vendor's.

Stay reachable

A real person who knows your setup answers when you call. No ticket queues, no vendor runaround.

The comparison

Ongoing management vs. hiring someone.

An honest table. The gap on the right side of every row is why SMBs keep choosing the retainer over a hire.

Customer notes

"They taught us to fish."

We'd burned six months on consultants who left us a Notion doc. AiOn ran us through hands-on training and built the first two workflows. Three months later, four staff are shipping their own AI tooling.

R
Ryan Carter
Founder, Pixel & Code Studio

The audit was worth the engagement. They told us which three things to do and — more importantly — which seven to stop trying.

S
Sarah Park
Business Coach, ScaleWise

Our sales team was scared of AI. By workshop three, they were writing their own prompts and competing on output. Adoption stuck because they built it.

FAQ

Questions worth asking first.

No — the platform is free. You're paying for judgment and time: the years we spent building it and the hours we spend running it. The software never shows up on an invoice.
Yes — ongoing management is $3,500/month. We set the platform up, keep it patched and stable, and stay on call. Month to month, no lock-in.
No. Training without rollout is theatre — teams learn, then forget. We combine consultation, training, and co-build into one program because that's the only shape that produces sustained behaviour change.
Most clients hit ROI inside the first 30 days from a single shipped automation. Slower returns (cultural adoption, multi-team leverage) show up in months two and three.
Both. We're Vancouver-based, so Lower Mainland clients get in-person workshops by default. Everywhere else: live Zoom, recorded, with a private channel for your team.
The stack we build on is the platform we give away free — open-weight models running on your own hardware, so there's no per-seat subscription tax. We also teach the surrounding automation stack (Make/n8n, Zapier, HubSpot, Salesforce) so AI plugs into your existing workflows rather than replacing them.
Often yes. We don't file claims, but we structure work so it documents itself for SR&ED, CDAP, or sector grants. Bring your accountant in early.
