Boldly Reimagined
AI and cybersecurity, read as one problem, from one seat.

The AI tools making you money and the ones exposing you
are the same tools.

Three weeks to a decision you can defend. We read both halves together and rank every move with a price on it, including the ones worth skipping. No software to install, no access to your systems, and your number agreed in writing before we start.

Send us what landed on your desk See what a readout looks like

More than 600 AI and cybersecurity projects behind the advice. Starting prices are on this site. You will never sit through a call to find out what something costs.

Any of this sound familiar?

If one of those is sitting on your desk right now, send it over. Forward the questionnaire, the quote, the renewal packet, the policy someone drafted at 11pm. You get a straight read back in plain language, whether or not it turns into work.

What a readout actually looks like

A specialty manufacturer with three plants

Real work, with the company anonymized. We do not publish client names, and we do not run engagements twice to make a better story out of them.

The setup

Three plants, one ERP nobody loves, and a new aerospace contract whose security addendum nobody had read closely. A plant manager had started using an AI scheduling assistant on his own. The CFO wanted to know what all of it meant before the board asked.

What surfaced

They thought one AI tool was in use. It was four. The aerospace addendum required incident notification within 72 hours and no plan existed. The scheduler's free tier retained uploaded production data. On the other side, quoting was the bottleneck, and quoting is exactly the shape of work AI pays for.

The readout

Eleven ranked decisions, each with a price. Enforce MFA on finance and ERP admin accounts, $0, and it closes the insurer's first question. Move the scheduler to a business plan, $40 a month. Write the 72-hour plan the contract already requires. Pilot AI-assisted quoting in one plant, hours measured before and after.

And one more. Defer the $180,000 AI-powered MES module the ERP vendor had pitched. It solved a problem that ranked ninth. That one deferral was worth more than ten times the fee, and we earned nothing either way. That is the whole point of buying advice from someone with no product behind it.

What we do

Lock down what is risky. Push hard where it pays.

You get both, every time. A short list of what to fix, and a short list of where AI will actually make or save you money. Only one of those and you end up either scared stiff or reckless.

Assessments

The Exposure & Opportunity Review

You end up with every decision ranked and priced, in three weeks, including what to skip and what to defer. Both halves in one read. What AI is already doing in your company and what that opened up, and where it would actually pay.

Starting at $9,500, scoped to your business. You will know your number in writing before any work begins.

Workshops

Get your team on the same page

Half a day or a full day, built around your business. Your people leave having actually decided something, with it written down. One session ends with your AI rules drafted in the room.

Starting at $6,500 a session, scoped to the room.

Advisory

Someone to ask, all year

For the stuff that lands mid-quarter. A vendor quote you cannot judge. An insurance form full of questions. A customer security review. A policy someone drafted at 11pm. Send it, get a straight read.

Starting at $2,750 a month. Stop after any 90 days.

Why this is worth doing now

Three numbers worth knowing

49%

of companies have no rules at all about how staff use AI. 83% think AI has made them easier to attack.

Pax8 research, reported by ChannelE2E, June 2026.

96%

of leaders say they feel good about their security posture. In the same survey, one in four had a ransomware attack or demand within the year.

23%

of midmarket firms rank identity as a priority. It is the most common way in, and the controls are among the cheapest to put right.

RSM Cybersecurity Special Report, 2026.

The firm selling you AI and the firm securing you are almost never the same firm. So the risk each one creates for the other is the one thing nobody in the room is paid to look at. Left alone it does not stay still. It shows up later as a contested claim, a stalled deal, or a six-figure module you did not need.

If you sell to anyone in Texas

There is a new AI law, and it comes with a way to protect yourself

Texas's AI law took effect on 1 January 2026, and there is no small-business exemption. If you do business in Texas, sell to Texans, or run an AI tool in the state, you are in scope. There is no employee count or revenue threshold to fall under.

Here is the useful part. The law gives you an affirmative defense if you document how you manage AI risk against a published standard, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework. That is rare. Most rules tell you what you did wrong afterwards. This one says up front what to have on file. It is a defense, not immunity, and the Attorney General allows a window to cure.

Producing that documentation is a finite job with an end date, and it is part of every assessment we run for a company doing business in Texas. The same file answers the AI questions your largest customers and your insurer are already sending down the supply chain.

Why the advice stays clean

We gave up four things on purpose

No products and no commissions, so a recommendation earns us nothing either way. No access to your systems, so nothing we do can take something down, and we can start next week. No implementation, so we are never bidding on the work we just told you to do. And no long contract, because you can stop after any 90 days.

That is also why the prices are on this site. You should not have to sit through a sales call to find out what three weeks of work costs.

Common questions

The questions we are asked most

Do I need an AI policy?

Yes. If your people can reach AI tools from a work device, you need written ground rules, and one page is enough to start. A workable policy names the approved tools, names the data that never goes into them, and names one owner. We draft these with leadership teams in a single working session, and most publish theirs that same week.

Does the new Texas AI law affect my business?

Almost certainly, if you do business in Texas. The Texas Responsible AI Governance Act has no small-business exemption and no employee or revenue threshold. Using any AI tool in the state puts you in scope. The law gives you an affirmative defense, not immunity, when you document how you manage AI risk against the NIST AI Risk Management Framework. The same file answers the AI questions your largest customers and your insurer are already sending down the supply chain. Document it once, use it in three places.

Why did my cyber insurance renewal get harder?

Carriers stopped accepting attestations and started asking for evidence. The questionnaire that took an afternoon last year now wants logs, records and proof that controls are actually running. We close that gap in two weeks and hand you the evidence pack your broker submits, starting at $4,500.

Why treat AI and security as one problem?

Every AI tool your team adopts changes your attack surface, and every control you add changes what AI can safely do for you. Companies that assess them in separate projects, months apart, end up with a governance file that no longer matches the tools in use. We read both in one three-week review.
