Questions
Do I have to book a call to get the resources?
No. The resources are yours either way. Brian’s calendar is on the next page if you want it.
Is the review a sales call?
Brian will show you Microtech Secure AI and what it costs, so you can decide for yourself. Most of the call is about your firm. The written report is yours either way. No obligation.
Do I need Microsoft Teams?
No. The Teams link opens in your web browser, nothing to install. If you’d rather talk by phone, that works too.
We already have an IT provider.
Most firms do. Use the six questions with them. The review is about how your firm uses AI, whoever handles your IT.
We already have an AI policy.
Good, that’s the first step. A policy tells staff what not to do. Secure AI shows you whether it’s being followed and steps in when it isn’t.
What happens after I sign up?
Your downloads open on the next page. Brian’s calendar is there too if you want to book a review. We also email you the links. Someone from Brian’s team may follow up by email, phone, or text. Reply STOP to any text to opt out.
