# acejack > Tennessee's first AI development firm. Knoxville-based, serving mid-market and enterprise teams across the United States. We discover where AI belongs in your business, build the fit, and operate it as a managed service. Claude is our default; ChatGPT and other providers when a client's stack calls for it. ## Thesis Your team is already using AI. Nobody is running it. AI is infrastructure — somebody has to run it. acejack does: discovery, build, daily operation. The shape varies per client; the cycle does not. ## What we do - [Discovery](https://acejack.com/how-we-work) — Free 30-minute intro plus a paid, custom-quoted deep-dive with agent-driven analysis. Maps the highest-leverage places AI fits in your org. The written map is yours either way. - [Connected, secure AI for the team](https://acejack.com/what-we-do) — We provision Claude (or the provider you already use) across the organization, tune what each role can do, wire it into the tools the team works in, and hold ownership of the tenant so policy and access are actually enforced. - [Custom agents in operation](https://acejack.com/what-we-do) — Background agents on heartbeat schedules: sales follow-up, inbox triage, daily executive briefs, pipeline-health monitoring, voice agents, custom industry workflows. Named agents, known cadences, monitored outputs. - [Custom AI builds and integrations](https://acejack.com/what-we-do) — Document generation, research agents, voice systems, data surfaces, BI dashboards queryable in natural language, image and document processing at operational volume. Shaped per business; not a catalog. - [Managed Operation](https://acejack.com/how-we-work) — Six-month rolling retainer. Quarterly strategy, monthly value reviews, weekly tune-ups, always-on monitoring. Drift is our problem to fix. ## Ethics posture Better businesses, not cheaper businesses. We do not sell automation of low-wage roles — top-down only. Every engagement ships with a Workforce Protection Clause and a Hiring Trajectory Baseline. Most of what gets called "AI strategy" is a euphemism for headcount reduction; we are deliberately, structurally not that. See [/ethics](https://acejack.com/ethics). ## Provider posture Claude is our default. We have found it best-suited for most businesses we work with. We support ChatGPT, OpenAI's models, and other providers when a client's stack or use-case calls for it — but we recommend Claude unless there is a specific reason not to. ## Security posture Cloudflare-only US infrastructure. Anthropic Claude direct, no training on client data. Named sub-processors. Default retention and deletion documented. DPA on request.
