AI training for Thames Valley service businesses
Your team will save an hour a day on repetitive tasks
using the tools you already pay for, or you get your money back.
Three months, from an audit to a measured result.
In partnership with
The hour a day is in your business, somewhere.
Whether that's the licences you already have
ChatGPT, Copilot or Gemini accounts paid for every month, but sitting unused.
The repetitive tasks that appear daily
Meeting notes written up, paperwork chased, the same documents redrafted for the hundredth time.
The jobs your competitors are automating
Quotes, reports and first drafts are quick to automate, using the tools you likely already own.
The time lost to nobody knowing what's safe to input
People either avoid the tools or paste sensitive details straight in, because they haven't been trained on what's safe to input into AI.
How the programme works.
Audit first, then only the training each person needs, then a measured result at the end of twelve weeks.
Testimonials
Don't take our word for it, take theirs.
From clients whose teams we have trained and built for. The build work is how we know what is worth teaching your team.
See what we built“The AI Edge training session was highly engaging and informative. It provided practical insights into how AI can improve efficiency, support better decision-making, and simplify everyday tasks. The trainer explained complex concepts clearly and used relevant examples that made the session easy to follow. I left with useful knowledge and greater confidence in applying AI tools in my work.”
An hour a day per person. Or your money back.
Measured across your team, at the end of the programme, on the tasks they told us were their most time-consuming in weeks one and two.
Week 12
We measure. Same questions as week one, same tasks, same durations, same frequencies.
If it falls short
Six more weeks of sessions and support at no charge, then we measure again.
If it still falls short
You get the full programme fee back.
Fifteen minutes to work out whether your team is the right fit. If the hours are not there, we will say so.
What your team will learn.
Nobody attends a module they don't need. If two of your staff are already doing a certain skill well, they won't need to sit through it again.
Skills
Getting real answers out of AI instead of generic ones.
- Setting Claude or ChatGPT up properly in the first place
- Prompting that works, and iterating instead of accepting the first answer
- Giving the tool enough context to be useful on your work
- Which model to reach for, and how hard to make it think
For: Anyone who has an AI tool open and is still getting answers they would not send to a client.
Security
Knowing what is safe to put in, and judging it mid-task.
- What can and cannot go into these tools, in plain English
- How to make that judgement in the middle of real work, not by reading a policy afterwards
- The settings that decide where your data goes
- How the AI policy from your audit works in practice
For: Everyone, and first for anyone handling client files, financials or personal data. This is the module that matters most in an accountancy.
Setup
Building it around the work you actually do.
- Projects set up per person, around the tasks they repeat
- Context documents, so the tool already knows the business and the clients
- Instruction documents, so the output already matches your standards
- Working from a real task rather than a demo
For: Anyone whose week has a repeated job in it: proposals, reports, write-ups, chasing, formatting.

What the hour is worth
Work out what you are losing.
An hour a day per person, priced at what an hour of your team's time actually costs you.
On the table every year
£88,000
1,760 hours returned to the business a year, across 8 people.
Based on an hour a day per person across 220 working days. Whether those hours are actually there in your business is what the audit answers, and we will tell you if they are not.
We teach what we have already built.
We spent the first year of AI Edge building automations for businesses across the UK, to understand what moves the needle and how to make systems staff actually use. From there we have transitioned into AI training, using that knowledge to build training courses we know are practical and relevant.

We would rather you knew before the call. Here is who the programme is, and is not, built for.
This is for your team if…
- You are a service business in the Thames Valley: five to twenty staff, trading three years or more.
- You are the owner, partner or operational lead, and the decision is yours to make.
- Your team has AI access already and rarely uses it, or not at all.
- Staff are pasting company data into tools nobody approved, and you want rules in place before that becomes a problem.
- You want a number at the end of it, not a claim that the team is now AI-savvy.
It's probably not for you if…
- You want the work done for you rather than taught to your team. That is our automation service, and a different conversation.
- You are a startup of two or three people, or the team is large enough to have someone running this internally.
- Your team already uses AI confidently every day. They would be ahead of most of this.
- You want a video course people can leave running in the background and never finish.
If the hours are not there, we will tell you on the call rather than sell you a programme.
Frequently asked questions.
Everything else you might want to know about the programme.
Twelve weeks, delivered online. Each session spaced two weeks apart, with a review week after each one.
We meet you and go through the tools you run, where the problems are, and how your team uses AI today. Every member of staff completes a short questionnaire covering what they know and the tasks that eat their week: what the task is, how long it takes, and how often it comes round. You get a written report and a first draft of your AI policy, and everything taught afterwards is built on what it finds.
No. The audit assigns modules per person, so each member of staff attends only what the report says they need. If two of your people already do this well, they are not sitting through it again.
None. The bar is being able to use a computer. Everything is taught on the tools you already pay for, using your team's own work as the examples.
It depends on how many people you are training: a base fee for the programme plus a rate per member of staff, with a discount on the per-head rate above ten people. We give you the numbers on the fifteen-minute call, once we know the size of the team. The calculator on this page is the more useful figure: what an hour a day per person is worth to you annually.
Because a free course is built for everybody and this is built for your business. The audit finds where your team's hours actually go, each person is taught only what their own work needs, and at week twelve we measure whether the hours came back. A free session can teach someone what a prompt is. It cannot tell you what it saved you, and nobody carries the risk if it saves you nothing. If a free course is genuinely the right starting point for your team, we will say so on the call.
The same questionnaire runs twice. In week one your team records their most time-consuming tasks with how long each takes and how often. In week eleven we ask exactly the same questions again. The difference between the two readings is the result, averaged across the team, and it is arithmetic rather than opinion.
We keep running sessions and support at no charge for a further six weeks, then measure again. If it still falls short, you get the full programme fee back. We would rather get you the result than give you a refund, which is why the six weeks come first. The guarantee holds provided your team met the obligations, which we go through with you and write into the contract.
That is a whole module, and it runs before anyone builds anything. Your team learns what can and cannot go in, how to make that judgement in the middle of real work rather than by reading a policy afterwards, and which settings decide where your data goes. You also get a draft AI policy in week two, before any training starts.
Yes, and it is how we know what is worth teaching. It is a separate service though, not part of the programme. If something worth building comes up during the twelve weeks, we will tell you, and that is a different conversation.
Still deciding? The call is fifteen minutes and there is nothing to prepare.
Book the call.
Fifteen minutes on your team size, the tools you already run, and the jobs eating the most time. It is a qualification call, not a pitch.
If you are the right size and the right sort of business, the next step is the audit, and we will give you the numbers on the call. If the hours are not there, we will say so.
