Vancouver's small business economy spans precision manufacturing, logistics, professional services, and a fast-growing healthcare cluster — every one of which has workflow categories AI is already eating in larger markets. We embed in your operation for a few weeks and ship the AI systems your team will actually use — permanently.
If your operation is doing repetitive cognitive work that AI should be doing, you have a $50k–$500k/year line item we can compress. Here's what shipping that looks like:
The grunt work AI should be doing — we build the systems that do it. Your team gets that time back.
Grow without burning out the people you have or making hires you can't yet justify.
Companies pulling away in 2026 aren't bigger or better-funded — they ship AI faster.
These are the Vancouver-area sectors where we see the highest-ROI AI workflows. Not on this list? Tell us anyway — we'll be honest about whether we're a fit.
Most AI consultancies sell strategy and hand off implementation to someone else. We don't. The same people who'd be in your codebase wrote our research papers and built our live AI products (aidevboard.com, nothumansearch.ai).
Whatever you already run on — QuickBooks, Salesforce, Notion, Airtable, your homegrown app — we wire AI into that. No platform lock-in.
We ship working production systems, not slide decks. If a recommendation can't run as code in a week, we don't recommend it.
Every engagement ends with documentation, runbooks, and training. No retainer trap.
