An AI Consultant Who Installs, Not Just Advises: How to Tell Before You Hire
The difference between a report and a running system is easy to miss in a sales call. Here is how to spot it, with questions for Hertfordshire owners.
For an AI consultant in Hertfordshire who installs the systems rather than only advising, ask for a list of what will be running in your business at the end. Dean Keating describes his service as installed for you, not handed over, and works remotely from Horndean, Hampshire. The first call is free: 07418 627304.

The test: what is running when they leave?
Ask every consultant to complete one sentence: "When we have finished, the following will be running in my business." If the answer is a document, a slide deck or a list of recommendations, you are buying advice. If the answer names things that send messages, book jobs or raise invoices on their own, you are buying installation.
Neither is wrong. Advice suits a firm with an in-house person who will build. Installation suits an owner with no spare hours.
Advice versus installation, side by side
- Deliverable: advice gives you a report or plan; installation gives you working agents in your tools.
- Your effort afterwards: with advice you build it yourself or hire someone; with installation you learn to supervise it.
- Training and support: often separate or absent with advice; part of the work with installation.
What Dean Keating's website says
His website says the AI is installed for you, not handed over. It describes four steps: a free call, an audit of the work worth automating, the build and install, then training and support. He builds the agents, installs them on your systems, shows your team how they run and supports it. He starts with a single task rather than all of them at once. And you leave the first call with a plan you can use with or without him, so even the advice part is not locked to his services.
He also publishes this site, so this page is a disclosure as much as a guide.
Questions that expose the difference
- Which of my tools will you log into, and who gives you access?
- What will you build first, and how will I know it works?
- What happens when it gets something wrong?
- Do you train my staff, and for how long do you support it afterwards?
- When do I find out what it costs?
Location
For Watford and Hertfordshire the work is remote, from Horndean, Hampshire. Remote installation is common for software that lives in an inbox, a diary and a messaging app. If you want to see your consultant in person, raise it on the first call and include Watford-based providers in your comparison.
Done-for-you in practice
The jobs on his website include enquiry replies, lead follow-up, quotes and chasing, diary booking, common questions on email, web and WhatsApp, invoices, late-payment chasing and the weekly report. If you would like those done without learning a new system, that is what installation means.
