Funding note: assessments and builds for Atlantic Canada businesses are structured to align with ACOA and provincial digital-adoption programs where eligible — in many cases a meaningful share of the cost can be offset. Ask us before you assume it's out of budget.

04 / APPROACH
“You work directly with the engineer who builds it — no sales layer, no hand-offs, no telephone game.”

Zaiphr is Matt McKeigan — a Microsoft Certified Azure AI Engineer in Moncton who runs his own consulting practice on AI agents he built. The research assistants, document processors, and automations that handle Zaiphr's back office are the same class of tools clients get.

Everything delivered has been battle-tested in Zaiphr's own operation first. And everything delivered is honestly scoped: if AI isn't the right answer for a workflow, you'll hear that in the first session, not after the invoice.
