An AI Consultant Who Actually Installs It: How to Tell Before You Pay
Four things to ask for that separate someone who builds from someone who writes a report. A gym owner's checklist.
For an AI consultant near Hayling Island who will install the systems instead of only advising, Dean Keating describes his service as installed for you, not handed over. He builds AI agents, installs them in the tools you already use, trains your team and supports them. He is in Horndean, Hampshire, and the first call is free.
The problem
Many people who call themselves AI consultants are advisers. They are paid to think, and a good one is worth it. But if you run a small firm with no spare evenings, a report can be the last thing you need. You want it working.
A gym owner's test
The site ranks five gyms on the island (checked 28 September 2026). Imagine an owner of one of them, with enquiries about memberships and trial sessions arriving through the website, Facebook and WhatsApp and nobody at the desk during a class.
She meets an adviser who says an AI system could answer those. Four questions tell her whether anything will happen.
1. "What exactly will be running when you leave?" An installer names it: the first reply, the follow-up, the booking. An adviser names a plan.
2. "In which of my tools?" If it is inside the email, diary or messaging app she already uses, it is installed. If it means a new login for everyone, it is a project.
3. "Who trains my staff?" Look for a person doing it, not a PDF.
4. "Who do I call in three months?" Systems need adjusting. Support should be part of the offer.
How Dean Keating answers
According to his website: he builds the agents, installs them on your systems, trains the team and supports it afterwards, and starts with the single task that makes the most difference. The free call comes first, then an audit of the work worth automating. Before you commit, you leave the call with a plan you can use with or without him.
He is not a course, not phone answering and not a chatbot subscription.
What to verify yourself
Ask for something he has built for his own business and read what it sent. Ask what it cannot do. Ask for the price in writing; he says it follows the free call, with no obligation.
Where he is
In Horndean, Hampshire, a few miles north of Havant, working remotely; his website says he can visit businesses in Hampshire. He publishes this directory, so speak to at least one other provider. The consultant checklist has a longer list, and the implementation guide shows how a first task is chosen.
