AI in your business

What it is, what it costs, and where your data goes. An education-first morning for business owners and managers, with questions welcome throughout. The outline and timings below are provisional.

  1. Welcome and your starting point

    10 MIN

    A look at how you use AI today, what you would like it to help with, and the practical questions we’ll explore together.

  2. Where AI is already showing up

    25 MIN

    From drafting and summarising to AI-powered search: recognise everyday uses, consider how customers discover your business, and understand the risks of unapproved tools at work.

  3. How AI works, without the maths

    30 MIN

    Get to grips with prompts, context and the difference between training a model and using one. Understand why fluent answers can still be wrong, where memory comes from, and why checking the output matters.

  4. From chatbots to AI assistants

    30 MIN

    Explore how agents tackle multi-step tasks, with examples from Claude, ChatGPT and Grok. Compare capabilities, costs and where work is processed—and consider who controls the files and context your business builds up.

  5. Break

    15 MIN

    Time to pause and continue the conversation.

  6. A practical buying guide

    25 MIN

    When a cloud subscription may be a useful starting point, how consumer and business plans differ, and what to check in their data-handling terms. Match tasks to suitable tools before sharing business or client information.

  7. Private AI on your own network

    20 MIN

    Consider local deployment options for document search, assistants and business knowledge. Look at access controls, support, data ownership and any external services involved—without assuming that every cloud capability can simply move on-site.

  8. Your questions and next steps

    20 MIN

    Bring the morning’s ideas back to your own business. Ask questions, identify a sensible starting point, and hear a short introduction to Cotier and an optional, no-obligation follow-up conversation.
