About

Hi, I'm Dave.

I help small businesses, newcomers and freelancers find where technology and AI can save them time and money, and then put it to work.

My story

I'm based in Toronto. My work has been leading projects, programs and change, keeping operations running, and helping teams adopt AI so it actually gets used.

I started Kinward Advisory because small business owners, newcomers and freelancers are told to use AI, but there's no clear way to pick tools that fit their work and budget, and no affordable person to help them act.

So I start with your business: how work comes in, and where time and money slip away. Then I recommend tools on fit, help you set them up, and check the result with you.

How I work

Your business first

I look at how you work before I talk about any tool.

Neutral on tools

I recommend tools on fit. No vendor pays me for placement.

Plain language

No jargon. If I use a term, I explain it.

A number before and after

Find, Fix, Prove: we write down the starting number and check it 30 days later.

Why the names

Kinward

Kin + forward: moving your people and your business forward together.

Kini

A short form of Kinward, and a play on the Yoruba question ki ni? (what?). Kini asks the questions and answers one: what should I do next?
