City
AI Consulting Toronto — AI Training, Consulting and AI Security
AI consulting Toronto buyers usually want one of three things: AI training so people use the tools well, a written plan for where AI fits, or clear security rules around the tools staff already use. Hero is an AI training, AI consulting, and AI security company based in Toronto. We work with teams in the City of Toronto, including downtown, midtown, North York, Scarborough, Etobicoke, and the east and west ends, in person by appointment and online anywhere in Canada.
Close to home. Across Canada.
Who this is for
- Professional firms and head offices downtown and in the neighbourhoods
- Office and operations teams that already pay for Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace
- Growing businesses of roughly 5–100 staff that want an independent plan before buying more tools
- Leaders who know staff are already using free AI tools and want clear rules
What we see in Toronto
Toronto is home base. Most Toronto teams we talk to already have AI features switched on in the tools they pay for. What is missing is training on their own work, a plan for what is worth doing, and rules for client and employee information.
| What we hear | What usually helps |
|---|---|
| "We have Copilot (or Gemini) but nobody uses it" | Team training on your own tasks, with time to practise |
| "Staff are using free ChatGPT and we're not sure what they paste" | An AI security assessment and a written AI use policy |
| "Every vendor says AI will fix everything" | An AI consulting assessment and a written, ranked plan |
| "A few people are great at it and the rest aren't" | A shared training day so everyone has the same habits |
Three services: AI training, AI consulting, AI security
| Service | You leave with | Best when | Posted price (CAD, before tax) |
|---|---|---|---|
| AI training | Skills and safe habits on the tools you already pay for | You want people using AI well, this month | Free AI Hour (when scheduled) · C$297 workshop · C$497 live course · C$2,500 / C$4,500 team training |
| AI consulting | A written 90-day plan: what to do, what to skip, who owns it | You need priorities before you spend on tools | Free fit call · C$1,500 (up to 20 staff) · C$3,500 (20–100 staff) |
| AI security | Security training, an AI security assessment, and a written AI use policy | Staff already use AI and nobody has set the rules | Training at posted prices · assessment C$1,500 / C$3,500 · policy quoted after the assessment |
When you're ready, we can help put the plan in place. That follow-on help is only for clients who have completed an assessment, and it is scoped from the written plan.
AI training
| Format | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Free AI Hour | A live hour on using AI at work, with one safe task to try. A date is posted on the AI Hour page when one is scheduled. | Free |
| Workshop | About three hours, hands-on, small group. One complete task practised from first draft to checked result. | C$297 / person |
| Course | A live founding group (not an on-demand video library). Includes 3 months in the member group. | C$497 |
| Team training | Private training for your team, on site in the GTA or online, built around your own tasks with sensitive details swapped for fictional ones. | C$2,500 half day · C$4,500 full day |
AI consulting
| Step | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Free fit call | 30 minutes. Is an assessment the right size? What would we look at? | Free |
| AI consulting assessment | Leadership interviews, a short staff survey, a review of the tools you already pay for, and a written 90-day plan: where AI is worth using, what to leave alone, what information stays out, and who owns each step. | C$1,500 (up to 20 staff) · C$3,500 (20–100 staff) |
AI security
| Step | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| AI security training | What a work account is for, what never gets pasted in, how to check an answer, and how to spot a manipulated document or prompt. | Posted training prices |
| AI security assessment | Which AI tools are in use, under whose accounts, what data goes in, who has access, and a ranked list of what to fix first. | C$1,500 (up to 20 staff) · C$3,500 (20–100 staff) |
| AI use policy | A plain-language policy, approved-tool list, and data rules based on what the assessment found. | Quoted after the assessment |
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.
Three Toronto examples (illustrative scenarios, not client results)
- Accounting and advisory firm, busy season — Staff are quietly using personal ChatGPT accounts. An AI security assessment, a half-day security training, and a written AI use policy move everyone onto one approved tool with a never-paste list.
- Head-office admin team — A full-day team training on site, with labs for finance summaries, customer-reply drafts, and meeting notes, plus a 30-day follow-up list for managers.
- Owner-run services firm weighing vendors — An AI consulting assessment ranks three opportunities, rules out two vendor pitches, and sets a 90-day order the team can follow on its own.
First-week checklist for a Toronto team
| Day | Do this |
|---|---|
| Mon | Name one approved AI tool |
| Tue | Post a one-page "never paste this" list |
| Wed | Each person tries one non-sensitive task |
| Thu | Share what worked in a 15-minute stand-up |
| Fri | Book a fit call if you want a guided next step |
