AI that takes the busywork off your desk.

A two-person practice in Prattville, Alabama. We build the automation, AI assistant, or custom tool that eliminates one repetitive task in your business, then document it and hand it to your team. You don't hire anyone. You just stop doing the task.

No pitch. We look at one process you hate and give you three specific ideas — in writing. You keep the plan whether or not you hire us.

What we do

Five ways in. Almost everyone starts with the audit and decides from there.

  • The AI Audit

    Free right now normally $300

    Thirty minutes watching how you actually work, then a one-page plan naming three specific places AI would save you time, ranked by payoff. If nothing on it is worth doing, we'll say so.

  • A Single Automation

    from $1,200

    One repetitive task, automated end to end — quotes that write themselves, a report that builds itself, an inbox that sorts itself. Built in your accounts, tested on your real data.

  • A Custom AI Assistant

    from $1,500

    A private assistant trained on your own documents — policies, product specs, the question customers ask forty times a month. Your team asks it instead of asking you. Training included.

  • Custom Software & Websites

    quoted per project

    When the tool you need doesn't exist off the shelf: an internal dashboard, a customer portal, a booking system, or the website that should have replaced your paper forms years ago.

  • Ongoing AI Support

    from $800/month

    Five hours a month of whatever's next, plus a short weekly check-in. For businesses that keep finding new things worth automating. Cancel with two weeks' notice.

Founding-client rate — 50% off for our first three clients, in exchange for a short testimonial and permission to write up the results. Three spots, then it's gone.

How it works

  1. Tell us the problem in two sentences

    If you can't, we're probably not the right fit yet — and we'll say so rather than sell you something.

  2. Take the free 30-minute audit

    We watch your workflow and name three opportunities, ranked. You keep the written plan either way.

  3. Get a written scope and a fixed price

    You know exactly what you're getting and what it costs before anything starts. Half up front, half on delivery.

  4. We build it, document it, hand it over

    It lives in your accounts, under your logins. You own it. If we vanished tomorrow, it would still run.

Who we work with

Professional & financial services

Accountants, bookkeepers, law firms, insurance agencies, real-estate brokerages, financial advisors — anyone with mountains of repetitive document and admin work.

Trades & home services

Plumbers, HVAC, electricians, contractors, landscapers, cleaning companies — anyone who hates quoting, scheduling, follow-ups, and chasing reviews.

The short version: if you're drowning in quoting, scheduling, follow-ups, data entry, or answering the same question over and over, that's the work we take. Marketing agencies and small e-commerce shops are welcome too.

What we don't do

Knowing what we turn down is how you know what we're actually good at. This list doesn't bend, including for people we like.

  • General tech support and break/fix. Printers, Wi-Fi, email outages, "my computer is slow," network setup. We're glad to refer you to a local IT shop we trust.
  • Marketing services. SEO, ad campaigns, social media management, content calendars. We'll build the software; we won't run your marketing.
  • Ongoing IT management or being on call for systems that aren't ours.
  • Work without a written scope and a cleared deposit. It protects both of us.
  • Anything touching patient health data or other HIPAA-regulated information.
  • AI that makes high-stakes calls on its own — legal, medical, or financial determinations. AI assists your experts; it doesn't replace their judgment.

How we handle your data

  • You own your data and your accounts. Wherever possible we build inside your tools, under your logins, so nothing depends on us.
  • Business-grade AI tools only. We work in business and enterprise tiers, where your data is not used to train AI models.
  • We collect only what the project needs. No sensitive personal information we don't require, and never regulated data.
  • We delete our working copies of your files after delivery and handoff.
  • AI makes mistakes. Anything AI generates should be reviewed by a person before you rely on it. We build in guardrails; you stay in control of what goes out the door.

Questions about your data? Ask us. We'd rather over-explain.

Who we are

Southern AI Consulting is two people in Prattville, Alabama. One of us is a software engineer who has spent a career building systems that have to work in production; the other runs everything else — intake, scoping, scheduling, and the part where we tell you honestly whether we can help.

We're deliberately small and we intend to stay that way. It means we can be picky about the work we take, responsive when we take it, and straight with you when the answer is no.

Book your free AI audit

Thirty minutes, no charge, no pitch. Tell us the one process you hate and we'll come back with three specific ideas in writing. If we can't help, we'll say so and point you somewhere better.

Two sentences is genuinely enough. If it takes more, it's usually several problems and we should talk instead.

Email, spreadsheets, QuickBooks, a scheduler — whatever you actually live in.

We read every one of these ourselves — no autoresponder, no call centre. Expect a reply within a business day. Prefer plain email? Write to admin@southernaiconsulting.com. We never sell or share what you send us; see how we handle your data.
