[Compare the four levels](https://hiatt-co.com/programs/#compare) SEE WHAT CHANGES ## Same work. Different levels of help. See how AI can help you think through a task, complete it, or manage a supervised process. Thought partner ### Think through the approach. “Help me create a better process for following up with customers after a meeting.” You guide the conversation. Assistant ### Prepare the follow-ups. “Review these approved notes. Identify next steps and draft the follow-up messages.” You delegate a bounded task. Employee ### Design an ongoing responsibility. “Monitor the agreed follow-up queue. Prepare messages and escalate exceptions for my review.” You set the rules and approvals. Illustrative workflows, not customer results. Connections and actions depend on your tools, access, and business policies.

[Plan a workshop](https://hiatt-co.com/plan/) Private team workshops and business-group introductions. Location and travel confirmed in your scope. QUESTIONS ## Before we get started. [Ask us something else](https://hiatt-co.com/plan/) Do we need any AI experience? No. AI Basics starts with everyday tasks and simple conversations. The other levels build from there. You do not have to take all four programs. Is this a fixed course or a custom workshop? We plan the session around your goals and experience. We agree on examples, preparation, length, and deliverables before you commit. Private teams and business groups are welcome. Where do you train, and what does it cost? We focus on in-person sessions for small businesses in Central Indiana, including on-site training. Tell us your location, team size, and goals. We confirm the format and price in a written quote. Which AI tools will we use? We plan around your approved tools, which may include ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Microsoft Copilot. Available features and business controls differ by subscription and configuration. An introductory session may not need a paid subscription. What about company and customer data? Use examples with sensitive information removed, or our sample material. We discuss approved tools, access, and human review before using business information. Does “AI employee” mean unsupervised automation? No. It means a narrow, defined responsibility with limits, tests, approval rules, and an accountable human owner. Training produces a supervised prototype, not an automatic production rollout. Agreement between agents does not prove correctness. ## Plan your _team’s training._ Choose a program or tell us which task your team wants to improve. We’ll help you choose where to start.
