The room

Owner-operators and very small teams: shops, trades, studios, restaurants, local services, and anyone who does the admin themselves after hours.

The afternoon

  • The one rule that protects your customers: what your AI may never see.
  • Reading a vendor's terms in five minutes, and the three lines that matter.
  • Keeping records: what to save when an AI writes to a customer for you.
  • The questions a bank, insurer or franchisor will ask about your AI use.

What you take home

A one-page AI use rule for your business and a checklist for the next tool you sign up for.

Plus the software you built in the morning, running on your own laptop.

Nothing here is a commitment. The more you tell us about the job you would bring, the better the day is built around real work, and the sooner we can tell you which date fits.
