AI consulting for San Francisco Bay Area companies

Bay Area teams usually know the models better than most consultants do. What they ask us for is the unglamorous half: connecting agents to the CRM, billing system and data warehouse, putting evaluation and logging around them, and getting the result through a security review from an enterprise customer.

We work with SaaS companies, life-science firms on the Peninsula and in South San Francisco, and the service businesses around them. Delivery is remote from our US base with on-site sessions in San Francisco, the Peninsula or the East Bay at the milestones that matter.

Rules that apply in California

What we check during discovery for San Francisco Bay Area clients, and how it changes the design.

CCPA/CPRA and the CPPA regulations
Updated California Privacy Protection Agency regulations took effect January 1, 2026. Requirements for automated decision-making technology used for significant decisions apply from January 1, 2027, risk assessments must be completed by December 31, 2027, and cybersecurity audit deadlines are phased from 2028 to 2030.
California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (CMIA)
Stricter than HIPAA in places and applies to some digital health products that are not HIPAA-covered. Relevant to any agent that handles health details.
SB 53, frontier AI transparency
Places obligations on developers of large frontier models, not on most companies that use them. We mention it because clients ask; it rarely changes a business automation project.

General information, checked October 2026. Not legal advice; laws and dates change, so confirm with your own counsel. See our AI regulatory compliance overview for more.

Time zone and delivery

Pacific Time (PT)

Three hours behind our Eastern-time team, so your mornings overlap with our afternoons for live work. We hold reviews at 9 or 10am Pacific and hand over written updates at the end of our day.

We also work with companies in Palo Alto, Mountain View, South San Francisco, Berkeley and Sacramento, and remotely with teams in Los Angeles and San Diego.

Typical San Francisco Bay Area projects

  • Security-review-ready agents

    Agents shipped with data-flow diagrams, retention settings, access logs and an evaluation report, so your enterprise customers’ questionnaires take days rather than weeks.

  • ADMT readiness before 2027

    An inventory of where automated decisions affect consumers or employees, with notice and opt-out flows designed before the January 1, 2027 date.

  • Private RAG for confidential research

    Retrieval over internal documents running in your own cloud account or on premises, with no prompts or files sent to a third-party model provider.

Questions from San Francisco Bay Area businesses

Do the new California ADMT rules apply to our AI tools?
They apply when automated decision-making technology is used to make significant decisions about consumers, such as lending, housing, employment or healthcare, with requirements starting January 1, 2027. Many internal automations fall outside that. We map each use before you build.
Can you work alongside our own engineering team?
Yes, and in the Bay Area that is the usual setup. We build in your repositories and cloud accounts, follow your review process and leave documentation your team can own.
