The questions UK buyers ask us most often when they are deciding whether AI consulting is the right next step.
An AI consultant looks at what you actually do day to day, works out which parts of it AI can usefully take over, and helps you set those changes up safely. At OpenKit that runs as a four-week Transformation Block. If you want ongoing support afterwards, an Embedded AI Lead works alongside your team. If you need a custom system built, that becomes a bespoke build.
If your team is spending hours every week on repetitive manual work, or you keep hearing "we should be using AI for this" but nobody has the time to figure out where to start, that is usually the moment a consultant pays for itself. The Transformation Block is designed for exactly that situation: you know AI could help but you do not yet know which use case is worth starting with, or what a sensible rollout looks like in your sector.
Differently from how it works for enterprises. SMEs need use cases that pay back quickly and do not require a dedicated data team to run them. We focus on AI that sits on top of the tools you already use, whether that is Microsoft 365, your CRM, or your case management system, rather than green-field builds that need a year and a six-figure budget before anyone sees value. The four-week Transformation Block is sized for SMEs specifically: fixed fee, workflows live by week three.
The standard Transformation Block takes four weeks. We spend the first week auditing your processes, the next two configuring and rolling out workflows, and the last week training your team and handing over. Bespoke builds run longer than this and we scope them after the audit, once we both know what is actually worth building.
It depends on scope. A standalone audit and the four-week Transformation Block are both fixed-fee, so you know what you are committing to before you start. Ongoing Embedded AI Lead support runs as a monthly retainer. Bespoke builds are scoped and quoted after the audit, when we both know what is actually worth building.
Three things tend to separate signal from noise. Ask to see real working systems they have shipped, not slide decks of what they could theoretically build. Check whether they hold security certifications relevant to your data, with ISO 27001 as the baseline for any commercial AI work. And ask who actually does the build, since many large consultancies sub-contract delivery while keeping the senior names on the proposal. At OpenKit the team that pitches the work is the same team that builds it.
Both. The team that runs your audit also builds whatever comes out of it. That usually means RAG over your own document library, workflow automation in tools you already use, or custom internal apps. Everything sits on top of your existing storage and identity stack, not a separate one we have to spin up. We do not hand you a strategy deck and walk away.
That is the most common starting point. The Transformation Block includes hands-on training calibrated to each role, plus a workflow-authoring walkthrough so internal champions can build their own AI workflows after we leave. The aim is that you can keep adding use cases yourselves rather than calling us back every time.
OpenKit is ISO 27001 certified and works to UK GDPR by default. Every implementation includes encryption, role-based access control, and documented data processing. For regulated sectors we add your sector-specific obligations on top, whether that is SRA for legal, FCA for financial services, or the NHS DSP Toolkit for healthcare. We have delivered projects under all three.
The audit gives you a prioritised list of opportunities, a risk register, a data-protection review, and a recommended rollout plan. From there you can move into rollout with us, hand the plan to an internal team, or scope a bespoke build. There is no requirement to continue with OpenKit, and we will tell you if the right next step is not us.
The AI audit is the fastest way to find out whether AI is worth doing in your business, and what the right first step looks like.
BAiSICS, the legal document analysis platform we built, reached 92% faster document processing at 96% extraction accuracy. It shows how we approach AI for law firms and in-house legal teams.
An AI consultant audits your business, finds the work AI can usefully take over, then builds and governs it. Here is what the role covers and who needs one.
How to choose a UK AI consultancy: an evaluation scorecard, the questions vendors dodge, and an honest read on when building an in-house team wins instead.
