UNBIASED DATA STRATEGY

Objective advisory for small businesses navigating AI, data platforms, and cybersecurity. Objective data and AI advisory. No platform to sell. No hype to buy.

We help owners and leadership of $10-$100M companies cut through AI hype and vendor noise to make clear, affordable, well-sequenced decisions about data and technology. You'll get objective and practical assessments and roadmaps - without hiring a CIO or a Big 4 firm.

Core AI and data challenges for SMBs Stonefish helps clients overcome:

Data & AI Skills and Knowledge Gap: Roughly 60% of small companies report a shortage of specialized talent like data engineers and scientists, and about 80% of business leaders admit they have little true AI capabilities.

Budget and Maintenance Overhead: High initial data integration and ongoing data maintenance costs strain limited financial resources, keeping many firms stuck in sporadic experimentation rather than full deployment.

Legacy Infrastructure Bottlenecks: Trying to layer modern tools onto outdated systems causes operational friction, workflow breakdowns, and inefficient firefighting by small IT teams.

Security and Data Privacy: Fragmented data makes clean implementation difficult, while malicious actors leverage AI to accelerate sophisticated cyberattacks and phishing schemes.
