AI Consulting Canada — A Written AI Plan, Trained People, and Clear Rules
AI consulting in Canada should leave you with something you can act on. Hero's AI consulting is an assessment of how your business works and a written 90-day plan: where AI is worth using, what to leave alone, what information must stay out, and who owns each step. We pair it with AI training and AI security so the plan is used well and safely. Hero is based in Toronto and works online with teams anywhere in Canada.
Close to home. Across Canada.
Who this is for
- Canadian businesses and teams of roughly 5–100 staff, in any industry
- Leaders who need priorities before spending on AI tools or vendors
- Teams already paying for Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, or ChatGPT that want to get more from them
- Organizations that want posted prices, not an open-ended discovery phase
What an AI consulting assessment covers
- How people use AI today, including tools leadership has not approved
- Where time actually goes, from interviews and a short staff survey
- A review of the tools you already pay for
- One to three uses worth trying first, and what to leave alone
- What information must stay out of AI tools
- Who owns each step, and a 90-day order
- Who needs training, and on what

This is a practical assessment. It is not a certification, a formal compliance report, or legal advice. If you need one of those, we will say so and point you to the right kind of specialist.
A 7-day way to test the waters before you hire anyone
- Day 1 — Pick one approved tool
- Day 2 — Write a short never-paste list
- Day 3 — Choose one repeated, low-risk task
- Day 4 — Try it with two people and check every output
- Day 5 — Note what worked and what did not
- Day 6 — Decide: keep, change, or stop
- Day 7 — If you want a guided next step, book a fit call
Three national examples (illustrative scenarios, not client results)
- Calgary engineering consultancy — A full-day team training on Copilot, then a consulting assessment that ranks the next moves and writes down never-paste rules for client drawings.
- Ontario insurance brokerage — Half-day training with a security track, then a written plan for renewal-season drafting with a licensed person reviewing every word.
- Manitoba non-profit — Workshop seats and the live course for staff, with a one-page AI rule the board can adopt.
How Hero differs from a typical "AI agency" pitch
| Typical pitch | Hero |
|---|---|
| Proposal after a long discovery | Posted prices before you book |
| Sells software or a build first | Starts with training, a written plan, and clear rules |
| Vague outcomes | A written plan you keep, whoever acts on it |
| Logos and big claims | No invented clients, stats, or testimonials |
How we keep claims honest
- No client logos, testimonials, star ratings, or awards until they are real and the client agrees
- Example scenarios are labelled as illustrative composites, not client results
- Estimates are labelled as estimates; we measure with you before quoting any saving
- People stay responsible for decisions, advice, and anything a customer sees
