Harnessing AI to deliver business value
Who we are
Lightstep AI empowers small and mid-sized businesses to compete with enterprises by turning their data and processes into intelligent, self-improving systems powered by Microsoft Azure AI.
We apply AI technology to your custom workflows to drive efficiency and innovation.
Most AI advice aimed at businesses our clients' size comes in two unhelpful forms: an enterprise consultancy that prices the engagement past what the outcome is worth, or a tool vendor whose demo has never met a real permissions model. We sit between those. We build on Microsoft Azure because it is where our clients' data and identity already live, and we stay accountable for what we build after it goes live.
How we work
Start with the workflow, not the technology
Every engagement begins with a specific process that costs you something measurable today. If we cannot name the cost, we are not ready to build anything.
Ship into production, not into a demo
A pilot that never reaches real users has not proven anything. We design for the permissions, the messy documents, and the awkward questions from the start.
Stay accountable after go-live
The value of an AI system is decided in month seven, not week two. We offer a managed service because someone has to own quality once the launch excitement fades.
