Frequently Asked Questions

01.

What do you mean by “AI in the workplace”? When we talk about AI in the workplace, we’re referring to tools that help employees work more efficiently, not replace them. These tools assist with everyday tasks like drafting emails, summarizing documents, organizing information, responding to routine customer questions, and managing schedules. AI works best as a support system that removes repetitive work so your team can focus on customers, quality, and decision-making.

02.

Will AI replace my employees? No. In small and mid-sized businesses, AI is most effective when it reduces burnout, not headcount. In real-world use, AI:

​

  • Handles repetitive or time-consuming tasks

  • Helps employees respond faster and more accurately

  • Allows staff to focus on higher-value work

​​

Businesses that use AI successfully typically see higher employee satisfaction and better customer experiences, not workforce reduction.

03.

Isn’t AI complicated or intimidating? It doesn’t have to be. Modern AI tools are designed to feel familiar—often resembling chat, email, or search interfaces your staff already uses. When introduced gradually and with guidance, most employees become comfortable very quickly. Our role is to translate AI into plain language and apply it only where it makes sense for your business.

04.

What’s the difference between Generative AI and Agentic AI?

​

Generative AI helps employees create things:

  • Emails, proposals, and documents

  • Summaries of long emails or reports

  • Marketing content or internal documentation

​​

Examples include tools like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot.

​

Agentic AI helps take action:

  • Scheduling appointments

  • Routing emails or requests

  • Updating records in business systems

  • Assisting with customer service workflows

​​

Agentic AI is typically used with oversight and rules, so humans remain in control.

05.

What AI tools do small businesses actually use? Some of the most common business-grade platforms include:

​

  • ChatGPT (Teams or Enterprise) for internal knowledge, drafting, and research

  • Google Gemini for Workspace for businesses using Gmail, Docs, and Sheets

  • Microsoft Copilot for companies using Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Word, Excel)

​​

These tools integrate directly into systems many businesses already use, which reduces disruption.

06.

What’s the difference between free AI tools and paid ones?

​

Free tools are great for experimentation, but they often:

  • Lack security and administrative controls

  • Don’t integrate with business systems

  • Can’t be customized to your workflows

​​

Paid business tools offer:

  • Better data protection and privacy controls

  • Integration with email, documents, and calendars

  • Centralized management for employees

  • More consistent and reliable performance

​​

For most businesses, paid tools are about safety and efficiency, not luxury.

07.

Is our data safe if we use AI? When implemented properly using business-grade platforms, AI can meet strong security and privacy standards. Part of our assessment focuses on:

​

  • Which tools keep your data private

  • How information is stored and accessed

  • What policies should be in place for employees

​​

AI should never be deployed without clear safeguards.

08.

How do businesses typically start using AI? The most successful approach is simple and measured:

​

  1. Identify one or two time-consuming tasks

  2. Introduce AI gradually

  3. Provide light guidance to employees

  4. Monitor results and adjust

​

AI should feel like a helpful assistant, not a forced change.

09.

Do we need an internal IT team to use AI? No. Many small businesses adopt AI without dedicated staff.

​

With the right guidance, AI tools can be:

​

  • Selected appropriately

  • Configured correctly

  • Integrated with existing systems

  • Supported with simple policies and training

​​

That’s where a trusted advisor makes the difference.
