Questions occupational therapy aides ask
What if our occupational therapy aides team doesn't have any data ready?
Most don't. Getting the data into shape - ingestion, cleaning, the lightweight contracts you need before any model is useful - is part of the engagement. For AI specifically, we typically run that work on Handle bookings, recalls and reminders, Answer common patient questions, Draft intake and summaries, Reduce phone and paperwork time and assume messy starting conditions from day one.
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes - on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. 0.01% of all Claude.ai conversations map to this kind of work (Anthropic Economic Index, March 2026)
What's the smallest engagement you'd take on?
A two-week paid discovery for Occupational Therapy Aides that aren't sure whether the build is worth doing at all. You get a one-page write-up of what we'd build, what we'd skip, and what it would cost. About 30% of those discoveries end with us recommending you don't proceed.
Can it remind us about the annual return?
Yes. Every company must file an annual return with the Companies Office each year, separate from its tax return.
Do you work with Xero?
Yes. Xero is one of the systems we build around, and we connect to the other tools you already run rather than asking you to switch.
