The csAI Philosophy:

Solutions. Not hype

csAI: Common Sense AI Consulting

AI is nothing more than a tool. A powerful tool? Absolutely. But we see few use cases where AI should displace actual humans doing real work.

To us, the best AI use case is one which improves the productivity of your team and the quality of your client work.

If AI automation and custom tools can save your firm 2 hours a day across all business functions, by the end of the year, your firm will have picked up a total of 13 weeks worth of opportunity costs.

That’s more than one full quarter, and it is time that can be better used daily to improve the quality and utility of your firm’s work.

That is what‘s important about AI... and that’s our focus.
