Services / AI Business Setup

Turn AI into your everyday business assistant.

I help small businesses in San Jose and the Bay Area set up, learn and actually use AI to save time, handle repetitive work, create marketing, answer customers, research faster and run the day to day. I use it to run my own business. I will show you how to do the same in yours.

This is not an AI class

You can learn what ChatGPT is for free. The City of San Jose runs AI for All San José with courses from Google, OpenAI and Anthropic. OpenAI has held free small business workshops here. I wrote up the good ones in free AI training for small business owners. Take one. They are worth your time.

Then you get back to the shop and the real question is still sitting there: what do I actually do with this in my business? That is the part I do. I look at how your business runs, find the work AI can take off your plate, set it up with your information, and sit next to you until you are using it without me.

How it works

You do not need every AI tool

I use several because each one earns its place in my week. One is better at writing, one at research with sources, one at images and flyers, one at working inside my files. That took me a long time and a lot of wasted subscriptions to figure out.

Your business probably needs two. I will tell you which two, show you why, and tell you which ones to cancel if you are already paying for something you do not use.

What AI ends up doing in a small business

These are the workflows I build most. Which ones you get depends on what the assessment finds.

Marketing

Flyers, promotions, email campaigns and website copy that sound like you, from a short description of what you want to say.

Social media

A month of posts planned in one sitting, with captions in English and Spanish and a consistent look.

Customer replies

Drafts for emails, texts, review responses and estimate follow ups that use your prices and policies. You read, fix and send.

Research

Suppliers, competitors, permits, pricing in your area, with sources you can check instead of a guess.

Admin and paperwork

Quotes, proposals, job descriptions, SOPs, meeting notes and the documents you keep rewriting from scratch.

Basic automation

A form that becomes a drafted reply. A new lead that gets a follow up. Small connections between tools you already use.

Prices

Fixed prices, agreed before work starts. AI tool subscriptions are separate and you pay the vendor directly.

The honest part

AI will not run your business. It gets things wrong, it makes things up when it does not know, and somebody has to read what it writes before it goes to a customer. What it does well is the first draft, the research, the repetitive writing and the blank page. For most owners that is several hours a week, not a miracle.

If your work is almost all hands on and you rarely touch a keyboard, a full setup is probably not worth it. One small thing might be, like answering missed calls or replying to reviews, and I will tell you that on the assessment instead of selling you a package.

If you need custom software, an AI system wired deep into your operations, or anything that touches medical or legal records, you need an engineering firm or your IT provider, and I will say so on the first call.

Who this is for

  • Owners who do a lot of writing and follow upReal estate, insurance, bookkeeping and tax offices, property managers, consultants, notaries, agencies.
  • Small teams repeating the same workFront offices, schedulers, anyone answering the same ten questions every day.
  • Owners who took a class and got stuckYou have the account. You do not have the plan.
  • Spanish speaking owners and teamsEverything can be delivered in Spanish, English or both.

Who is setting it up

I am Albert. I build the websites at Fouro Digital and I run this business on AI tools every day: marketing, client reports, research, quotes and most of the admin. What I set up for you is what I use myself.

My day job is leading customer support at a cybersecurity company, so two things come with every setup. Customer replies that sound like a person wrote them, and a plain rule sheet for what is safe to put into AI and what is not.

More about me

Need the basics first? I also build websites from $900, fix how you show up on Google with Search Visibility Setup, and the rest is on the services page.

Questions people actually ask

Is this an AI class?

No. San Jose already has free AI classes and I will point you to them. This is the step after the class: I look at how your business runs, pick the tools that fit, set them up with your information and build the workflows with you so you use them on Monday.

How much does an AI consultant cost in San Jose?

Here it is $399 for the assessment, $1,500 for AI Business Setup, $2,500 for Pro and $4,000 to $5,000 for Transformation, with optional monthly plans at $299 and $499. Local firms that build custom AI automations usually start around $2,500 for a single project and go well past $10,000. Most do not publish prices. I publish mine so you know before you call.

Which AI tools will I need?

Most businesses need one or two, not five. I use ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok and Perplexity in my own business because each is good at a different job. After the assessment I tell you which ones make sense for yours and why.

Do I have to pay for the AI tools too?

Yes, and you pay the vendor directly, not me. Most paid plans run about $20 to $30 per person per month. The accounts are in your name with your card, so you own everything if we stop working together.

Is it safe to put my business information into AI?

It depends on the information and the plan you are on. Every setup includes a one page guideline written for your business: what is fine to paste, what never goes in, and which privacy settings to turn on. If you handle medical records or other regulated data, tell me on the first call because that changes which tools are allowed.

Do you build AI agents and automations?

Basic ones, yes: connecting a form to an email draft, a lead to a follow up, a review to a suggested reply. I use no-code tools so you are not locked into custom software. If you need an engineered system with its own monitoring, I will say so and point you to a development shop.

Can you do this in Spanish?

Yes. The assessment, the setup, the prompts and the training can all be in Spanish, English or both.

Do I have to sign up for a monthly plan?

No. The assessment and the setup packages are one time. The monthly plans are for owners who want someone to keep improving things, and they are month to month.

How long does it take?

The assessment is one 60 to 90 minute conversation and you get the written report within 3 business days. AI Business Setup takes about 2 weeks, Pro about 3 weeks, and Transformation 4 to 6 weeks depending on how many people are involved.
