Repeating desk work
Intake forms, follow-ups, CRM notes, and status updates that steal hours every week.
Thoughtfully shaped for your work
AI consulting that starts with one real workflow
Canada and Strathcona teams do not need another slide deck. They need a clear first win: intake, quoting, reporting, tenders, or a private agent with human review. We map that before anyone buys seats or software.

No card on the first call

Estimate and proposal lag
Slow turnaround on quotes and proposals when the work itself is fine.
Reports and compliance packs
Safety packs, field notes, and client reports that need structure without losing human sign-off.
Tool noise
Staff trying ChatGPT or Claude with no shared rules, privacy line, or owner.

Intake, quoting, reporting, routing, or follow-up designed with human approval where it matters.
AI automation Canada →Team habits
Prompts, privacy rules, and live practice so seats and tools are not wasted after week one.

FAQ
AI consulting Canada questions
Is ShapedSI an AI agency in Canada?
We are based in Canada and serve Canada-region businesses with consulting, automation, private software, and training. Local operator, not a remote pitch factory.
How much does AI consulting cost in Canada?
Discovery is free. Paid work is scoped after we understand the workflow. Ranges and examples live on the AI consulting cost Canada guide. Implementation is never a mystery flat fee without a scope.
Do you only advise, or do you build?
Both. Many clients stop at scan + training. Others need a private agent, intake automation, or tender workflow. Build comes after the plan.
Can small businesses work with you?
Yes. Best wins are often operational: quoting, intake, follow-up, reporting, and safer tool use for 5–20 person teams.
