Common Questions About AI for Small Businesses and Job Seekers
1. What is the first step to adopting AI in a small UK business?
Most small businesses don’t know where to start with AI. At Mercia AI, we begin with a Discovery Call to explore practical use cases, check your data readiness, and highlight early wins. It’s simple, quick, and delivered online so you can get clarity before making bigger investments. Learn more.
2. Is there a UK consultant who offers a short AI discovery call to validate ideas?
Yes. Our Discovery Call is designed for individuals and businesses who want to test whether AI has real potential in their work. You’ll get an honest view of where AI can help — and where it can’t — without being locked into long projects. Book here.
3. How can I assess my company’s AI readiness and data quality?
Before you spend on AI projects, it’s important to know if your systems and data are ready. Our AI Readiness Consultation reviews your current setup, data health, and workflows so you know what’s feasible and what needs fixing first. Details.

Absolutely. Our Starter Data Insight service cleans and structures your spreadsheets, finds patterns, and delivers clear visuals alongside plain-English explanations. You don’t need a “big data” setup to start benefiting from AI-driven insights. Learn more.
