Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about AI consulting and training for small and mid-sized businesses in Montréal.

Software alone doesn’t change a business — knowing how to apply it does. I help you choose the right tools and teach your team to use them for real results.

Every business is different, so each project is scoped up front and you know the cost before we start. We discuss options on the free discovery call.

Data privacy is a priority. I show you how to set tools up so confidential business and client information stays private, and I help you write simple rules for your team.

Law 25 governs how personal information is handled. I help you set up AI tools and write staff guidelines with those requirements in mind. This is practical guidance, not legal advice — for legal questions, check with your lawyer.

No. I work with non-technical owners and staff. If you can use email and a web browser, you can use these solutions.

Both. I run in-person workshops and meetings across Greater Montréal, as well as virtual sessions.

Workshops give your team skills they can use the next day. Workflow projects typically start saving time within a few weeks, depending on scope.
