How We Can Help

Choose the Support That Matches Your Needs

All services include knowledge transfer, documentation, and full ownership of everything we build.

AI Automation & Efficiency

Implement AI tools to reduce repetitive work and free up staff time. We focus on practical, affordable AI solutions that work for small teams - using local models that keep your data private and under your control.

What's included:

  • Assessment of repetitive tasks suitable for automation

What's included:

  • Complete inventory of current software and services
  • Analysis of redundancies and underutilized subscriptions
  • Nonprofit pricing guidance (Microsoft, Google, Adobe, etc.)
  • Recommendations for free or lower-cost alternatives
  • Data sovereignty assessment for Canadian compliance

Timeline: 2-3 weeks

Best for: Organizations spending on multiple SaaS tools, cloud services, or feeling uncertain about their tech costs

Infrastructure Setup & Migration

What's included:

  • Infrastructure assessment and hosting provider recommendations
  • Technical setup and configuration (our work is complimentary)
  • Hosting, domain, and email services (you pay providers directly)
  • Migration from existing providers (if needed)
