THE SERVICES
AI services for Perth businesses
AI consulting services help Perth businesses decide where artificial intelligence is worth using, and prove it is being used properly.
The work is practical, and drives real value, automating the tasks that actually cost time, writing the policy your staff will follow, and watching what AI opens up.
TechBrain can run all three as one managed service, from Perth.
Most Perth firms arrive at one of three doors.
Some want the admin backlog gone. Some have a board or an insurer asking what their AI policy is. Some have just rolled out Copilot and want to know what it can reach.
The three services below answer those separately, and they work together as one governed pathway: adopt, govern, defend.
You can start with one and add the others later as you grow.
AI Workflow Automation
Custom AI agents built on Microsoft Copilot Studio, Power Automate and Azure AI Foundry, running inside your own Microsoft 365 tenancy. You own the agent outright: full IP transfers to you when the build completes.
AI Governance as a Service
Continuous oversight of how AI is actually used across your business: a bespoke acceptable use policy, a live tool register, staff training with completion tracking, vendor risk assessments, and a quarterly report your board can read.
Managed AI Security
SOC-level monitoring of the risks AI brings in: data moving to unapproved tools, exposed API credentials, AI-assisted phishing and deepfake attempts. It extends the TechBrain endpoint and network monitoring you already have.
Microsoft Copilot Enablement
Copilot licences on their own rarely change much. We scope what your people actually need it to do, tighten what it can reach, and fold that work into automation or governance, whichever fits.
AI Policy & Staff Training
A written AI policy your staff have actually read, backed by short quarterly training with completion tracking and an evidence pack you can hand a regulator or an insurer. Part of the governance service.
OUR POSITION
Setting The Standard in
Perth businesses are already using AI. The work now is making that use governed, secure and productive. Agents built inside your own tenancy, a policy your staff have actually read, and an Australian SOC watching the new risk.

GOVERNANCE
Get Started
Already in use. Not yet governed.
AI is already inside Australian businesses, mostly out of sight.
A majority of employees hide their use, adoption has trebled inside a year, ASIC has reviewed how licensees use it, and most directors say it is moving faster than their organisation.

AUTOMATION
AI automation for Perth businesses
We design and build the agent, then run it. It works inside your existing Microsoft 365 tenancy on Copilot Studio, Power Automate and Azure AI Foundry, so your data does not leave the environment you already control.
The IP transfers to you on completion. As an example of the opportunity, a legal or accounting drafting agent working from your own precedent library can cut drafting time on a document by 60 to 80%.
GOVERNANCE
Governance your board can evidence
Policy, tool register, staff training, vendor risk assessment and a quarterly report, run as one service rather than four disconnected efforts.
The test is not whether you have a policy. It is whether you could demonstrate, to a regulator, an insurer or a court, that you knew what your staff were doing with AI and took reasonable steps about it.
That is the question this service is built to answer.
SECURITY
Monitored by an Australian SOC
AI introduces attack surface that endpoint tools were not built to watch: data flowing to unapproved platforms, prompt injection, exposed API credentials, and social engineering built with cloned voices and generated video.
We monitor for it from our ISO 27001 certified SOC, staffed entirely by Australian permanent residents, with no offshoring of monitoring or incident data. It extends your existing TechBrain endpoint and network monitoring rather than replacing it. We write about these AI security risks in more depth separately.
STANDARDS
ISO 27001 certified, ISO 42001 next
TechBrain has been ISO 27001 certified for years, and every AI service described here is delivered inside that certified environment. We are currently pursuing ISO 42001 as well.
We are not claiming to be first or only in doing so; we are doing it because the same discipline that made our security auditable should apply to how we build and run AI.
Benefits
Why Perth businesses choose TechBrain for AI
Perth’s AI market is mostly small consultancies who will build you something and then leave, or national firms with nobody on the ground here. Neither shape suits a medium or large business that has to keep the thing running afterwards, prove to somebody that it is compliant, and reach a human when it breaks. What follows is the case for the third option, which is a local partner who carries all three.
Local expertise
Our head office is in Subiaco and our engineers are here. When something needs a person in the room rather than a ticket queue, that is a short drive, not a flight or a time-zone gap.
Regulatory compliance
We work to the obligations you actually carry, such as the Privacy Act, AHPRA guidance, Law Society rules and ASIC and APRA expectations, alongside your cyber insurance conditions and client contracts.
One managed relationship
Automation, governance and security under one agreement, with one team who knows your environment, instead of three vendors each holding a different quarter of the picture and none of them accountable for the whole.
Governed adoption
We do not hand you a tool and wish you luck. Every deployment comes with the policy, the register and the training that make it defensible after the novelty wears off.
Sovereign delivery
Your monitoring and incident data stays in Australia, handled by Australian permanent residents. Nothing about your environment is passed to an offshore team, at any hour of the night.
Board-level reporting
You get reporting written to be read by directors, not by engineers: what changed, what it costs you in risk, and what needs a decision this quarter.
THE PROCESS
In 4 simple steps
Discovery
A no-cost AI Discovery Session. We look at what your people are already using, what obligations apply to your industry, and where the practical opportunities are. You get a clear read on scope and priorities, whether or not you go further with us.
Proposal
A written proposal and scope. What we would build or monitor, what it will change, what we need from you, and how success gets measured. No surprises later, and nothing starts until you have agreed to it in writing.
Onboarding
Onboarding takes around three weeks. Discovery of the AI tools already in use, a baseline of where you stand, then the policy, framework or agent build itself. You have a named point of contact throughout, and a schedule you can hold us to.
Ongoing service
Then it runs as an ongoing managed service, on a monthly retainer rather than a one-off project. Monthly reporting, quarterly reviews, and adjustments as your business and the regulatory picture change.

FAQ Your AI questions,
Your AI questions,
answered.
What do AI consulting services cost in Perth?
It depends on what you are trying to do, and we would rather scope it properly than quote a number that turns out to be wrong. The Discovery Session is free and ends with a clear picture of what is involved. For context on the other side of the ledger, the Australian Signals Directorate puts the average self-reported cybercrime cost for a medium-sized business at $97,200, up 55% in a year.
Is our patient and client data safe with AI?
It can be, and it depends entirely on which AI. Agents we build run inside your own Microsoft 365 tenancy, so patient and client information stays in the environment you already control. Free public chatbots are a different matter: staff paste details in without realising it counts as a disclosure under the Privacy Act and, for clinical practices, under AHPRA guidance. We detect that usage and bring it inside a policy.
What makes TechBrain different from other AI consultants in Perth?
Most Perth AI firms are consultancies: they build, they hand over, they invoice. We run a managed service, which means we are still accountable for the thing in month eighteen. We are ISO 27001 certified and pursuing ISO 42001, we run our own Australian SOC, our engineers are in Perth, and adoption, governance and security sit under one relationship rather than three. That combination is the answer to a fair question we get often: are you an AI firm, or an IT company with a new brochure?
Who is liable when AI makes a mistake in my business?
You are: accountability sits with your business and its directors, and it cannot be handed to a tool or a vendor. We cover this properly on our AI governance page.
Can you help WA mining services and METS firms automate HSE and tender reporting?
Yes, and those are among the strongest cases we see, particularly for mid-tier operators, contractors and METS suppliers rather than tier-one miners with in-house data teams. An HSE reporting agent can collate a month of incident records into a regulator-ready submission and a board safety summary, turning a multi-day cycle into hours. Tender responses can be assembled from material already in SharePoint. We confirm the specific saving with you at discovery.
What is ISO 42001 and why does it matter?
It is the international management-system standard for AI, and we are pursuing certification. We have explained it in full in ISO 42001 explained.
