AI Consulting for Small Business
AI consulting for small businesses that want to run it themselves.
Hands-on AI implementation for your team: Dallin sets up Claude inside your business, trains your people on the work they actually do, and hands you the keys. Processes that used to take hours start taking one to two minutes, and nothing depends on us after handover.
What it is
Altaway's AI consulting is a hands-on setup and training engagement, not a slide deck. Dallin looks at where your team loses hours every week, sets up the right Anthropic tools for those exact tasks, and trains your people on them in plain English until they run everything without us.
The toolkit is Anthropic's Claude family. Claude handles everyday work like drafting, research, and analysis. Claude Cowork runs on the desktop and completes multi-step tasks from start to finish, like working through a folder of invoices or turning source files into a finished report. Where deeper automation pays, Claude Code builds it. You end up owning all of it on your own accounts.
Who it is for
Operating businesses whose teams still do repetitive work by hand: email, quotes, invoices, reports, follow-ups, scheduling. No technical skill needed on your side. If your business runs on hours of manual process every week, that is exactly the work this recovers. It sits alongside our AI visibility work: one service gets AI working for you inside the business, the other gets you named by AI in your market. You can read about who does the work or start from the homepage.
What it costs
Consulting is billed hourly and scoped up front, because a two-person shop and a twenty-person operation need very different amounts of setup. Book a discovery call, tell us what your team does by hand, and you get a clear quote before any work starts. No retainer, no lock-in, and everything we set up stays yours.
A real result, not a demo
A Utah roofing company took their website back.
They were paying a vendor $1,500 a month to run their website. Dallin helped them set it up with Claude, and now they run it themselves for $20 a month. That is $1,480 a month back, $17,760 a year, traffic went up instead of down, and they keep full control of their own site.
Inside the same company, processes that used to take hours now take one to two minutes.

How an AI implementation works
Set up. Train. Count the hours.
Set up
We map where your team loses hours, pick the right Claude tools for those tasks, and set them up inside your business, on your own accounts.
Train
We train your team in plain English, on your real work, until they run it without us. You are not left with software nobody touches.
Count the hours
You track the hours coming back and put a dollar figure on them, the same math as the calculator on this page. Real numbers, not vibes.
Common questions
AI consulting, answered.
What does an AI consultant do?
A good AI consultant finds where your team loses hours to manual work, sets up the right AI tools for those exact tasks, trains your people to use them, and helps you measure the hours you get back. At Altaway that means Dallin does the setup and training himself, with Anthropic's Claude tools, and your team runs everything after handover.
How much does an AI consultant cost?
Altaway bills hourly, scoped up front. You book a discovery call, we map what your team does by hand, and you get a clear quote before any work starts. There is no retainer and no lock-in. Industry pricing for AI consulting varies wildly, which is exactly why we quote the actual work instead of selling a package.
How do I use AI in my small business?
Start with the tasks that eat the most hours: email, customer replies, pulling data out of PDFs and invoices, reports, follow-ups, scheduling. You do not need a big software project. Claude handles those tasks today, and the real work is setting it up around your business and training your team, which is what an engagement covers.
Can I use Claude for my business?
Yes. Claude works on web, mobile, and desktop, and Claude Cowork, Anthropic's tool for multi-step knowledge work, is available on paid plans through the desktop app. Anthropic also ships small-business integrations for tools like QuickBooks and Google Workspace. We set it all up on your own accounts, so you own everything.
How do I choose the right AI consultant?
Pick someone who does the work themselves instead of handing you to a junior, trains your team rather than making you dependent, and measures results in hours and dollars. Ask any consultant to show you a real before and after. Ours is on this page.
Tell us what your team does by hand.
A discovery call is free. You leave with a clear read on what Claude can take over and what it would cost to set up.
