Know what you are buying. Know what you will get.

Technology help for owner-led businesses is usually vague and open-ended. Ours is a clear menu: start with an assessment, build only what pays off, and keep it running. Every service has a defined scope, a timeline and a plain-language result.

Layer 1 · Assess

Start by finding out what is worth fixing.

Short, fixed-scope reviews that give you a clear answer and a written plan, with no obligation to buy anything further from us.

Technology & AI Quick Audit

We map how work really flows through your business, tools, handoffs and spreadsheet workarounds included, and tell you where technology or AI will pay off and where it will not.

  • Map of your current process and tools
  • Three opportunities ranked by effort and payoff
  • Cost and benefit view for each
  • A one to two page roadmap you can act on
Not included: building or buying anything. The audit ends with a plan, and the next step is your call.
Time: about 2 weeksFor: owners who sense waste but cannot see where

Cyber Health Check

A plain-English review of the basics that stop most real-world attacks: email, passwords and sign-in, backups, devices and who has access to what.

  • Review of email, MFA, passwords and backups
  • Device and vendor-access check
  • Prioritized fix list, ranked by risk and effort
  • A short summary you can share with your team or insurer
Not included: penetration testing, forensic work or any guarantee against a breach. We look for the common gaps and tell you what to close first.
Time: 1 to 2 weeksFor: any business that handles customer data or email

Software & Vendor Review

We look at every subscription and contract you pay for, find overlap and unused seats, benchmark the price and negotiate where there is room.

  • Inventory of tools, costs and renewal dates
  • Overlap and unused-license findings
  • Price benchmarking against the market
  • Negotiation with vendors on your behalf
Time: about 2 weeksFor: teams paying for tools nobody fully uses
Layer 2 · Implement

Build the few things that matter, and build them properly.

Defined projects with a clear finish line. We recommend whichever tool fits your business, even when it is not ours.

Disclosure: some software vendors pay us a commission when you sign up through our link. It never changes your price or what we recommend, and you can always sign up directly. See how we are paid.

Cybersecurity, honestly

What we do, and what we do not promise.

No one can promise you will never be attacked. We focus on the work that measurably lowers your risk, and we say plainly where a specialist is the better choice.

What we do

  • Assess your current security basics and rank the gaps
  • Harden accounts, email, devices and backups
  • Write simple policies and an incident plan your team can follow
  • Help you choose security tools and vendors, and negotiate the price

What we do not do

  • Guarantee that a breach will not happen
  • Provide 24/7 monitoring or emergency incident response ourselves
  • Perform penetration testing or forensic investigations
  • Recommend a product because it suits us rather than because it suits you

When you need monitoring, response or testing, we will point you to a qualified specialist and help you evaluate the proposal.
