Your clients will ask about AI risk. Bring an independent answer.

For MSPs, technology providers, and AI and business consultants whose clients are regulated or building with AI. We add the security and governance layer, so you can answer the question without stepping out of your lane.

SAT does not provide managed services and does not compete for them. E&O and Cyber Liability coverage on every engagement. Non-solicitation available on request.

The question lands on you first. The answer sits in a different lane.

You already deliver strong work for your clients. The AI governance and security question, whether it comes from an insurer, a regulator, a credentialing body, or the client's own customers, is deep, specialized, and time-consuming. It also carries more weight when it comes from someone independent of the work being reviewed.

You stay in your lane

Managing technology, or leading AI strategy, is what you do best. We handle the specialized governance and security layer, so your team does not have to context-switch or add headcount.

Your clients get a complete answer

Strong technology or strategy work, plus documented AI governance and security review, without you having to build that expertise.

Independence protects you both

An outside, credentialed advisor provides what no affiliated assessment can. That is what makes the deliverable stand up to an insurer, a regulator, or a credentialing body.

Two specialists. One complete answer.

Clean separation of roles, and of revenue.

You: the relationship and the work

  • Client relationship and account ownership: the primary contact, always
  • The environment or the strategy: the infrastructure your clients run on, or the AI plan they follow
  • Monitoring, operations, and day-to-day support
  • The ongoing roadmap: where the environment or the strategy goes next

Steve Allen Technologies: the governance and security layer

  • AI risk assessment and exposure mapping
  • A written AI risk and governance policy
  • AI tool selection and adoption advisory, including agent builds
  • Security and architecture review of AI-built applications
  • An ongoing AI governance retainer
  • Sandboxed AI environment design: we design it, you run it

SAT does not provide managed services and does not compete for them. E&O and Cyber Liability insurance on every engagement. Non-solicitation available on request. Your client relationship is protected before, during, and after.

Two ways to partner.

MSPs and technology providers

You run the client's environment. We add the governance layer, and design the sandboxed AI environment when a client needs one.

  • Your client stays with you
  • We work alongside your team, not in its place
  • You choose how you earn: co-manage or refer

AI and business consultants

You lead the AI strategy and own the client relationship. We are the security and governance layer behind you.

  • Work behind the scenes under your name
  • Or bring us in by name as your independent security partner
  • Your call, engagement by engagement

What you can bring your clients.

Policy. Platform. Proof.AI governance

An AI risk assessment, a written governance policy, a dated tool inventory, and role-specific staff training with a completion log. The documents an insurer, a regulator, or a credentialing body may ask for.

Microsoft and beyondAI data readiness

Clients adopting AI assistants often need readiness work first: what can the tool reach, is it safe to turn on, which plan fits which data, and who should pilot it. For Microsoft 365 and Copilot, that means Entra, Purview, and Defender. We own the first gate, the independent readiness assessment.

NewAI application security

Clients who build with AI tools, or buy software built with them, need someone to check the architecture. We review the security and architecture of AI-built applications, and help firms ask vendors the right questions before client data goes in. See the AI application security page.

You make the introduction. You choose how you earn.

Every engagement starts the same way: you connect us with a client who has an AI risk question, we run the first review at no charge to them, and then you choose your path.

Co-managed (recommended)

A recurring share of every governance retainer.

  • You keep 100% of your own revenue
  • A recurring share of the governance retainer, for as long as the client stays on it
  • Grows with your book, quarter after quarter

Best for turning regulated clients into recurring revenue.

Refer and release

A one-time referral fee on the first engagement.

  • You introduce SAT, then step back
  • SAT runs the engagement independently
  • Zero operational involvement required

Best when co-managed is not a fit: simple and fully hands-off.

Terms are shared in conversation. Consultant arrangements are agreed per relationship before the first engagement.

Start with one client.

No rollout. No commitment.

Pick the client together

One client where the AI question is live, or about to be.

We run the first review

A 45-minute Compliance Readiness Review, at no charge to the client. If the question is about an AI-built application, we start with a short scoping call.

Decide from there

You see what it surfaces, then choose to co-manage, refer, or take another path.

What partners ask first

Will you contact our client directly?

Not outside the engagement we agreed together. A non-solicitation is available on request, and your client relationship stays yours before, during, and after.

Do you sell technology or managed services?

No. SAT does not provide managed services and does not compete for them. We have no platform, hosting, or licenses to sell.

Can you work under our name?

For consultant partners, yes, when that suits the engagement. We can work behind the scenes under your name, or you can bring us in by name as your independent security partner.

What insurance do you carry?

E&O and Cyber Liability insurance on every engagement.

What does the client pay?

The first Compliance Readiness Review carries no charge to the client. Beyond that, engagements are priced by scope.

Bring us one client, or one question.

Tell us who you are and which client question is live. We will reply to set up a first conversation. No rollout, no commitment.
