AI consulting in Brisbane.
We come to you. A founder-led South East Queensland consultancy that finds where AI will save your team time, then builds the tools that do it.
Overview
Syriant is an AI consultancy based on the Gold Coast, an hour from Brisbane. We meet Brisbane businesses at their own offices, work out where AI will save their team time and money, and build the tools that do it.
We travel to clients across Brisbane and Logan, including Brisbane CBD, Fortitude Valley, South Brisbane, West End, Milton, Newstead, Spring Hill, Woolloongabba, Toowong, Chermside and Mount Gravatt. The first meeting is free and at your office. Everything after that is scoped and agreed with you before any paid work starts.
The work is led by founder Steve Ford, a serial technical co-founder and AI developer, with developer Oliver Ford. It’s the same work we’ve delivered for national clients like Luxury Escapes and TRIBE.
How it works
- 01
Tell us what’s slow
Call or send a note about the work that eats your team’s week. We’ll tell you straight away whether it looks like something AI can fix.
- 02
We drive up
A free first meeting at your office, anywhere in Brisbane or Logan. We’re an hour down the M1. We look at the work where it happens.
- 03
We scope it, you decide
A short written plan: what we’d build, what it costs, what it saves. Nothing is paid until you’ve agreed it.
- 04
Working software in weeks
Built into the systems you already run, handed over with your team trained. You own it. We stay on for support if you want us.
Why Brisbane businesses work with us
Founder-led, start to finish
You work directly with Steve Ford, a serial technical co-founder, from the first meeting to hand-over. No account managers, no hand-offs.
Close enough to turn up
When something needs looking at, we come to your office rather than scheduling a call for next week. The Gold Coast is an hour away.
Honest about fit
Plenty of problems don’t need AI. If yours is one of them, we’ll say so in the first meeting and point you at something cheaper.
Where it pays off
Events & travel
Attendee details checked against hotel and flight bookings in minutes, and tailored proposals drafted from your own pricing. We built CrossChex for TRIBE and a proposal tool for Luxury Escapes.
Retail & e-commerce
An independent check of a platform before you buy it, build on it or integrate with it. We did this for Daily Blooms ahead of a major acquisition.
Marketing & reputation management
Customer reviews analysed, responses drafted and reports assembled automatically. We built this for Global Reviews.
Professional services
Documents processed, data extracted and reports assembled, so your people spend their time on advice rather than admin.
Startups with an AI-built app
If your product was built with Lovable, Bolt, Replit or Cursor and now has real users, we review it for security, data and payment problems before they find you.
Other industries
The work above is document checks, proposal generation, reconciliation and reporting. If your business runs on the same kinds of tasks, the same tools apply, whatever the industry.

Steve was fantastic to work with from scoping through to delivery of our automated AI pitch deck. He worked quickly, delivered to an exceptionally high standard, and was highly responsive when we provided feedback or requested refinements.
He also brought valuable strategic advice to the project, helping us identify ways to improve our approach. His ability to work closely with our internal technology team enabled seamless integrations with our CRM, data warehouse and other systems.
Steve is pioneering what can be achieved with AI, and his work has helped us ensure our pitch decks are among the best in the business.
We came to Syriant with a problem we understood well and no clear idea how to solve it. Verifying event hotel and flight bookings against attendee details was slow and manual, and it needed to be fast and accurate. Steve took that starting point and built CrossChex into an AI-powered platform that solved the problem, and ultimately gave us far more than we originally set out to achieve.
Steve brought much more than technical expertise. He challenged our thinking, identified opportunities we hadn’t considered and continually enhanced the product along the way. He was patient through changes in direction, genuinely collaborative with our team and always focused on getting the best outcome.
Steve became a trusted partner throughout the project and brought expertise we simply didn’t have in-house. I genuinely enjoyed working with him, would absolutely work with him again given the opportunity, and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for both technical expertise and a genuinely collaborative partner.
Common questions
Do you really come to Brisbane?
Yes. The first meeting is at your office, anywhere in Brisbane or Logan, and we come back on site whenever the work needs it. That includes Brisbane CBD, Fortitude Valley, South Brisbane, West End, Milton, Newstead, Spring Hill, Woolloongabba, Toowong, Chermside and Mount Gravatt.
Where are you based?
On the Gold Coast, about an hour from Brisbane. For Brisbane clients we meet in person for the first meeting and for the parts of the work that benefit from being on site, and work remotely in between.
Is the first meeting free?
Yes. It’s a conversation about your business and where AI might help. There’s no obligation, and no paid work starts until we’ve agreed the scope and cost.
What kinds of businesses do you work with?
Businesses with repetitive, high-volume work: document handling, data entry, bookings and verification, reporting, proposals and customer responses. We’ve worked across travel, events, retail, marketing and professional services. We also review apps that founders have built with AI coding tools.
