For small businesses, agencies and consultants

List the AI tools you use and what client data goes into them. In 10 minutes you will see your gaps; within a week you can send a written AI policy.

Quick questions before we renew

  1. Which AI tools do you use on our account?
  2. Does any of our data go into them?
  3. Do you have a written AI policy we can see?
  • We use a few AI tools, mostly the usual chat assistant. We are careful with it.
  • We don’t think much of your data goes in.
  • Nothing is written down yet, but we can put something together.

Sounds unsure. The client starts asking more questions.

Sample email and replies. Nothing here is sent anywhere.

For consultants and agencies

Run this for every client.

Your clients are getting the same AI questions you are. Use the kits to run your own practice and build your method. Handing kit files to clients is not covered by the template licence; the Consultant licence, with a separate profile and document set for each client, opens in stages and will say what you may give clients.

Why you can trust it

Your clients’ data stays with you.

  • The free tool list never asks for client data.

    It asks a few questions about your tools and how you use them. Nothing about your clients.

  • Kits run in your own accounts.

    Google, Microsoft or Notion. We never see the files you fill in.

  • No tracking cookies on this site.

    We count visits, not people, and never store your IP address.

TechEd Analyst helps you write things down and gives you drafts to adapt. It is operational guidance, not legal or compliance advice; your lawyer still has the final word.

Common questions

Who is TechEd Analyst for?

Small business owners, agency operators and independent consultants who use AI tools, are being asked by clients how they handle data and AI, and want their answers and processes written down. Kits work in Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 or Notion.

What do I get from the free AI tool list?

You answer a few questions about the AI tools your business uses and what information goes into them. It takes about 10 minutes, needs no account and shows where the gaps are. If you ask, we email you the result and the next three things to put in order.

Which should I buy first?

If a client is asking now, start with the AI Use Register Kit. If you want to write down the whole back office, the Complete Operator Bundle includes it and six more kits. If you want someone to work through it with you, the AI-Readiness Review is a written report; services are paused for now while we update our service terms.

Do I need Google Workspace or Notion?

No. Every kit opens in Google Sheets or Excel, and the policies open in Google Docs or Word. The Freelance Business Tracker is a Notion template. If your team works from personal accounts, Digital Foundation sets up Google Workspace on your own domain once services reopen.

Is this legal or compliance advice?

No. Everything on TechEd Analyst, from the free tools to the templates and drafts, is operational guidance only. None of it determines whether your business complies with any law or regulation. For legal, compliance or regulatory questions, consult a licensed attorney in your state.

Can consultants use this with clients?

Use the kits to run your own practice and build your method. The template licence covers your own business, not handing kit files to clients. The Consultant licence, with a separate profile and document set for each client, opens in stages and will say what you may give clients; join the waitlist to be told when.

The next client email is coming. Answer it with a file, not a scramble.

List your AI tools in about 10 minutes, with no account. You can have a written policy within a week.
