About Apparatus

Apparatus is an AI consulting, training, and development firm for professional services organizations. It works with boutique and mid-size firms in law, consulting, accounting, financial services, real estate, and healthcare (typically 10 to 100 people.) Most AI consultancies are built for large enterprises and price accordingly ($500K+ engagements are common). Apparatus works with smaller firms that already have people using ChatGPT or Claude here and there, but haven't turned that into anything systematic. The work starts with low-risk pilots on whatever's eating the most hours, proves out the math, then scales. Training runs across three levels: Foundations: prompt writing, shared prompt libraries, custom GPTs and Claude Projects. The stuff that saves a team 5–10 hours a week once everyone stops reinventing the wheel. Power Tools: reusable skills, file connections, and data source integrations. One person's workflow becomes something the whole firm can run. Custom Development: agents, dashboards, and deployed tools. This is where firms start building things they can sell to clients or use to win work they couldn't touch before.
