AI consulting for firms that bill by the hour built by people who ship

The audit is free, and it is the only thing that is yours to keep. It ranks where your firm is leaking revenue in euros, so you can act on it with or without us. If you decide to have us build the fix, kratt operates on a hosted build-plus-retainer model: we build, host, and run the AI rather than handing you a license and walking away. We scope pricing against the size of the leak we find, not a fixed package, so book the audit first and the numbers follow the findings.

It is worth it when it touches billable work and revenue, and a waste when it does not. Our audit starts from the leak, not the tech: if the biggest opportunity in your firm is faster lead response or recovered utilization, that is what we build. If AI is not the right tool for a given leak, we will tell you.

A strategy consultant hands you slides and leaves the build to you. A systems integrator wants a long project. kratt is two operators who do both: we find the highest-dollar leak in your operation and ship the AI that closes it. The audit is strategy; the retainer is the running system. You get one team for both, not a deck you then have to staff against.

No. Most firms we audit have a few good tools bought piecemeal that never got wired into billable work, which is exactly the strategy gap. The audit maps what you already pay for, finds the gaps and the redundant spend, and we build the connective tissue so the tools actually move utilization, response time, or reporting. Often the fastest win is making what you own talk to each other.

It targets the non-billable drain first. That is the work we automate so your people spend more hours on billable, client-facing work. The judgment, relationships, and delivery stay human; the AI handles the repeatable plumbing around them.

The free audit comes back fast. The first build is scoped small and quoted, and the go-live date is agreed in writing before the build starts. We close one leak at a time, starting with the highest-dollar one, so you see a running system and a measurable change before we move to the next. No pilot purgatory.

It is a working session, not a sales pitch. We look at how leads come in and how fast you respond, your utilization and capacity data, where billable hours leak into admin and reporting, and what AI tools you already run. You leave with a ranked, dollar-quantified list of where your firm loses money and which leak is worth closing first. Whether you hire us to build it is a separate decision you make after you see the numbers.

We build on your stack and your accounts, integrating with the CRM, time tracker, PM tool, and billing system you already use, so client data stays inside the systems you control. We scope access to only what a given build needs, and the audit itself runs on a read-only basis. Confidentiality terms get set before any system touches client data.
