AI consulting · Anthropic-certified
There's almost no part of your business AI can't run: lead follow-up, customer service, the back-office admin that consumes your week. We find where it pays off most for Tampa Bay owners, then build it and run it for you.
Most firms either advise or build. We do both: an independent assessment of where AI will move revenue, margin and capacity in your business, implementation inside the tools your team already uses, and ongoing management measured against a monthly return-on-investment report.
Our servicesWho we work with Established businesses doing $500K+ a year, in any industry, including Home Services Law Firms Insurance Accounting Firms Financial Advisors Real Estate
Two ways to work together: we help you decide where AI belongs (and where it doesn’t), or we build it into your business and remain accountable for keeping it running. Either way it’s scoped to how you actually operate, and aimed at one number: revenue recovered, quotes out faster, hours handed back.
Most AI consultants pitching Tampa businesses are dialing in from Austin, New York, or somewhere on a Zoom grid. That's fine for theory, but the businesses that win in Tampa Bay tend to work with operators who understand the local economy, the talent market, and what "growth" actually looks like here.
No 3-day response lag from a contractor on the other side of the country. Tampa Bay clients can meet in person for discovery. We know what your competitors are doing because we see them every week.
Real estate experience in the past, Tampa Bay. Years in sales before AI, cold outreach, pipeline, closing, selling to owner-led businesses. We've sat across the table from the exact buyers you're selling to.
Every engagement we take is personally reviewed and personally delivered. No farming out to a team in another country, no "implementation partner" you've never heard of. If something breaks, we fix it.
Working with Tampa clients connects you to a small but growing network of operators in this region experimenting with AI. Introductions, vendor recommendations, and shared learnings move faster when we're all in the same metro.
We don't just use AI; we're certified directly by Anthropic, the company behind the Claude models that power every system we build. Real credentials on the exact stack your systems run on, not a weekend AI course.
Plus six from Microsoft and one from Google
I run a small HVAC business and reached out to Carter with questions about whether AI was the right fit. He answered every question perfectly and stopped money leaking in my business each month from bad follow-up, missed calls, etc. We had a 2.3x ROI on our investment and I'm very happy.
I was skeptical for the first few weeks using Carter Simmons. Fast forward 2 months, Carter's systems and SOPs have been amazing to our business, automating tasks that were eating 5-10 hours a week off each of our sales reps. Thank you Carter!
Working with Carter was phenomenal. His communication was on point and he really cared about each one of his clients. We saw a dramatic increase of getting our time back each week. Within the first couple weeks, we were already on track to get 7 to 10 hours back. Definitely recommend any SMB looking for AI consulting.
Same process whether you're in South Tampa, downtown St. Pete, Wesley Chapel, or somewhere outside the metro.
No cost, no commitment. We walk your sales, ops, and admin workflows together, in person if you're in Tampa Bay, video call if not. Booked within 48 hours.
We pinpoint the 2–5 highest-ROI places AI saves you time or makes you money, then build the biggest one custom to your tools and workflow. Day-30 Guarantee: live by day 30, or your setup fee back.
We host, maintain, and improve every system month to month, and report on what it recovered. Then we find and build the next one, so the payback grows every month. 12-month term or month-to-month, your choice.
We're based in Tampa and prioritize Tampa Bay clients for in-person work, but we take engagements nationwide. Tampa clients get the option of on-site discovery; remote clients run the entire engagement async plus video calls.
Any established, owner-led business doing $500K+ in annual revenue with work the team repeats every week. Some of the industries we work with: home services, law firms, insurance agencies, accounting firms, financial advisors and real estate. Tampa Bay's economy is heavy in real estate and home services, an area where AI compounds quickly.
Yes. For Tampa Bay clients we'll come on-site for the discovery session if it makes the audit better. Most of the implementation work is remote regardless of location, but discovery and walkthroughs benefit from face-to-face when geography allows.
Your first system is scoped at kickoff and built inside the tools you already use. If it isn't live by day 30 from kickoff, your setup fee is refunded in full and your 12-month term is void, so you're never held to a term for a system that never shipped, the one condition being timely access to the accounts the build depends on. Tampa Bay clients typically get their free consultation on the calendar within 48 hours.
Same engagement, same pricing. We cover all of Tampa Bay, Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, and parts of Manatee. In-person sessions throughout the metro area, including South Tampa, downtown St. Pete, Brandon, Wesley Chapel, and Clearwater. There are pages specifically for AI consulting in Wesley Chapel, St. Petersburg, and Clearwater.
Yes, happy to sign a mutual NDA before the audit. Most engagements get into customer data, sales pipelines, and operational workflows, so confidentiality is the default.
One free call. We go through your sales, ops, and admin, pinpoint where AI actually pays off in your business, and tell you straight whether it's worth doing. You leave with the plan either way. No deck, no pitch, no commitment.
