The Challenge: Bottlenecked by Human Expertise

The consulting firm faced a fundamental scaling problem. Client engagements required 8-12 hours of manual analysis per project. Deep institutional knowledge was locked inside the heads of senior partners. Report generation was slow and inconsistent across different consultants. The only way to scale was hiring expensive domain experts, which was both slow and costly.

The Solution: AI-Powered Intelligence Platform

AspireVita built a secure, production-grade AI system that captures expert knowledge and augments consultant workflows without replacing human judgment.

The platform includes a vector database storing years of consulting intellectual property, RAG architecture that produces cited and accurate outputs grounded in the firm's own data, automated report generation that writes in the firm's established tone and format, and a conversational interface that consultants use to query the knowledge base naturally.

Under the Hood

The system runs on GPT-4 and Claude LLMs for language understanding and generation, Pinecone Vector DB for semantic search across the firm's knowledge base, Azure UK South for security and data sovereignty compliance, and Python FastAPI for a performant and maintainable backend.

80%Reduction in time per consulting engagement

Business Impact

The platform transformed the firm's economics. Time per engagement dropped by 80%, freeing senior partners to focus on relationship building and complex strategy. Client capacity increased 5x without a single additional hire. Most significantly, the AI platform enabled an entirely new revenue stream — a self-service tier where smaller clients could access the firm's expertise through the AI system at a lower price point.
