AI Consulting

AI consulting for small businesses, without the enterprise price tag

Most AI consulting is priced and paced for companies with a six-figure budget and an IT department. Wex Advisory does the same job (find where AI actually saves you money), sized for a business that has neither.

What This Actually Means

Forget the buzzwords

Most small business owners hear “AI consulting” and picture a team of engineers and a “digital transformation roadmap” nobody reads twice. That's enterprise AI. It's not what a 5-person or 25-person business needs.

What it actually means: someone who knows the tools sits down with your real workflows, finds the tasks wasting the most time or money, and either hands you a data-backed report or builds the automation directly. No PhDs, no jargon: a PDF you can act on or a system that just works.

Who This Is For

Built for operators, not enterprises

Teams of 1–30 people, no dedicated IT or ops hire

Spending real hours on follow-ups, reporting, or scheduling that should run itself

Losing ground to competitors who are already using AI to move faster

If you're a Fortune 500 company looking for an AI governance program and a 12-person implementation team, I'm not the right fit, and I'll tell you that upfront.

FAQ

Common questions

What does an AI consultant actually do, day to day?

For a small business, it's less "strategy deck" and more "here's the one workflow eating 6 hours of your week, and here's how to make it disappear." I audit your operations, find the highest-ROI opportunities, and either hand you a report or build the fix myself.

How is this different from hiring a big consulting firm?

Big firms price for enterprise budgets and enterprise timelines: six-figure engagements, six-month rollouts. Wex Advisory runs flat-fee reports in 24 hours and automation projects in 1–4 weeks, sized for a business that doesn't have a six-figure AI budget.

Do I need to already know what AI tools I want?

No. Most clients start with "I know I'm behind, I don't know where to start." That's exactly what the free AI Audit is for: it tells you where the money actually is before you spend anything.

What if my industry isn't tech-heavy?

Most of my work is with businesses that aren't tech companies: coworking operators, service firms, retailers. The tasks that eat the most time (follow-ups, reporting, scheduling, intake) look almost identical across industries.

About

Who's behind the analysis

Max Wexley

Founder

Max Wexley

New York City

I'm a finance analyst by day and a builder by night. I built Wex Advisory because competitive intelligence was either out of reach for small businesses (locked behind $10,000 retainers) or too shallow to be useful.

Every report I deliver is one I'd want to receive myself: specific, actionable, and grounded in real data, not guesswork. The goal is simple: give growing companies the same quality of insight that larger competitors take for granted.
