Strategy that ships, not a slide deck.
We sit with you, map the workflow, and leave with a plan you can actually execute. Most engagements are ready to build within two weeks.
A senior practitioner in your corner.
Opportunity audit
We map your current workflow, identify the top three places AI can save the most time or unlock the most revenue, and quantify the expected impact.
Reference architecture
A concrete, buildable system diagram covering data, models, integrations, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints. Yours to keep.
Vendor-neutral recommendations
We aren't selling you an OpenAI subscription. We pick the right tools for your budget, risk tolerance, and team.
Prototype or pilot
Optional two-week engagement where we build a working pilot against your real data, not a sandbox demo.
Team enablement
Your team leaves knowing how to evaluate future AI opportunities without us holding the pen.
Ongoing office hours
Monthly check-ins for six months after we ship, so you're never stuck alone when something changes.
Three weeks from call to live.
Our engagement is short, honest, and designed to prove value fast.
Discover
A 30-minute strategy call where we map your workflow, find the high-leverage bottlenecks, and quote you a realistic path forward. No fluff, no deck, no obligation.
Build
We prototype, review with you, then ship. Most of our engagements are live within two weeks, and you always see the work before it goes to production.
Iterate
We monitor, tune, and add features as your business grows. Support is included, updates are included, and you always have a real person to call.
Right-sized engagements.
Every engagement is scoped up front. No six-figure retainers. Cancel the ongoing retainer any time.

Questions, answered.
The stuff people ask us on the first call. If yours isn't here, book a chat and we'll answer it there.
Do I need to be technical to work with DataSmart?
No. We built the whole company around the idea that AI should require zero technical background to benefit from. You describe the problem in plain English, we handle the rest.
How long until I see results?
Most clients are live within two weeks and see measurable time savings in the first month. Our typical payback period is six weeks or less.
What if the AI makes a mistake?
Every customer-facing output is reviewed by a real human until we're confident the AI nails your voice. We never ship automation you can't trust.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes. Month-to-month pricing, no long-term contracts. If we're not producing value, we shouldn't keep your business.
Do you work with businesses outside Canada?
Yes. We're based in Calgary and serve small businesses across North America. Everything is remote-first.
Will my data stay private?
Absolutely. We sign NDAs, we never train public models on your data, and every integration respects your existing permissions. Security details are in our privacy policy.
