Do you take Boston clients in person?

Yes. Shawn Moore travels to Boston quarterly. Most engagements combine on-site working sessions in Greater Boston with weekly video steering meetings between visits.

What does an engagement look like for a mid-market Boston company?

The typical sequence is a 2–4 week paid AI Growth Audit ($15K–$35K range), followed by a fixed-scope 90-Day Execution Blueprint ($25K–$50K range). Most companies decide on the long-term advisory shape — fractional CAIO, internal hire, or quarterly cadence — only after one full 90-day cycle.

Why Greater Boston mid-market is at an AI inflection point

Boston is the global center of life sciences and one of the deepest AI research clusters in the US, and its mid-market is in the middle of an uneven AI inflection. RSM's 2025 Middle Market AI Survey found 91% of mid-market organizations across the US and Canada now use generative AI in operations, but the same survey flagged that governance maturity and internal expertise still lag adoption sharply across every US metro.

Greater Boston runs on life sciences, higher education, financial services, and defense/robotics. MIT, Harvard, and the Broad Institute anchor the research bench; the operating question for mid-market CEOs here is discipline, not access.

Massachusetts-specific considerations

Massachusetts data privacy law, FDA SaMD guidance (for health-adjacent AI), HIPAA, and the emerging Massachusetts AI Strategic Plan (2024–2025) all apply. Life sciences engagements additionally navigate 21 CFR Part 11 and applicable clinical-trial frameworks.

Talent isn't scarce in Boston; disciplined executive prioritization is. Most engagements center on triaging a long list of promising pilots into a short list of production commitments.

How we work with Boston clients

Most Boston engagements run on a hybrid cadence: on-site working sessions when scope warrants, weekly video steering meetings, and async document review between sessions. Shawn Moore travels to Boston quarterly. Engagements are invoiced in USD; Canadian entities of US clients can be billed in CAD on request.
