About

AI Consulting for SMBs

Five8Five exists because most SMBs are being left behind in the AI shift — not because they lack ambition, but because the resources available to them are built for enterprises with six-figure consulting budgets and dedicated AI teams.

We do the opposite. We work directly with small and medium businesses to find the specific places where Claude, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Gemini, and GPT-4o can make a real difference — and then we build those things, document them, and stick around to keep them working.

No 90-day discovery phases. No vague "AI strategy" decks with no implementation. Just clear packages, transparent pricing, and working software at the end.

Clarity over complexity

AI is already complicated enough. We explain what we build, why it works, and what to do when it does not.

SMBs first

We are not an enterprise consulting shop that also "does SMBs." Your business is the target, not the afterthought.

Honest recommendations

We tell you when AI is not the right tool. We would rather lose the project than build something that does not deliver.

Speed without shortcuts

We move fast but build things that last. No duct-tape automations that break in 90 days.
