Small-Firm AI: Practical Tools for Practices With No IT Department

Small firms don't have an IT department to evaluate, deploy, or police AI tools. This book changes that. Written for the partner, owner, or sole practitioner who just wants AI to work—without a helpdesk ticket or a security audit that never comes. You'll learn which tasks are worth automating, which tools can be run from a browser without exposing client data, and how to spot a vendor that understands your scale. No jargon, no enterprise frameworks that assume a dedicated team. Instead, you get a practical progression: from choosing the right AI assistant for your sector, through building simple workflows that replace manual drudgery, to establishing a compliance routine that meets your regulator's expectations without a compliance officer. Every chapter covers verification and boundaries. It's built for the practitioner, not the programmer. The book ends with a procurement checklist, a red-flag guide for free tools, and a template for a one-page AI policy that keeps you safe. Part of The AI at Work Library.
