ABOUT AKARI

The AI practice behind your team.

AKARI helps businesses accelerate their teams with AI — training your people, securing their work, and guiding you as you grow.

Built on 18 years of keeping teams running.

AKARI is built on 18 years of keeping teams running — securing IT for thousands of users, migrating companies to the cloud, and leading a security-first practice. The lesson that stuck: the businesses that win aren't the ones with the most software. They're the ones whose people are freed up to do their best work.

That's what we build for — your team, with ours in your corner.

What we believe.

Your team builds it.

The people who know the work best should shape the tools. We teach and guide, so the capability lives inside your team — not ours.

Honesty over hype.

If the right answer is a process fix instead of AI, we'll say so. Your trust is the asset; we don't spend it.

Security by default.

The freedom to build comes with someone responsible for keeping it safe. Every tool reviewed, access locked, infrastructure managed.

Built to grow.

Start small and scale with your team. What begins as a pilot becomes a practice that grows as you do.

A practice that grows with you.

Every engagement runs in checkpointed steps, each ending in something your team can act on. You decide whether to continue at every checkpoint — and when the honest answer is that you don't need us, we'll tell you that too. We measure success by how much your team can do, not how much you depend on us.

AKARI Founder

AKARI was founded by Chris Doucette after 18 years building and securing IT for thousands of users — migrating companies to the cloud, leading a security-first practice, and learning one thing over and over: the businesses that win aren't the ones with the most software. They're the ones whose people are freed up to do their best work.

Bring us the job your team dreads most.

Thirty minutes. We'll tell you honestly whether AI can take it off their plate — and what it would take.
