The human side of AI adoption

Your people are your AI strategy.

At GTL (Gateway Talent Labs), we help smaller organizations navigate AI adoption. Drawing from our backgrounds in organizational psychology, we make sure AI works for the people using it.

AI Tools & Vendor Vetting

Not sure where to start? We help you compare your options and choose what fits your team and budget.

AI Upskilling & Workshops

We run interactive training that helps your organization get the most out of AI, and use it safely.

AI Policy & Governance

We create a plan for how AI is used across your organization, in language your whole team can follow.

Adopting AI changes how people work. That is where we start.

Grounded in organizational psychology

We look at how your people work, learn and adapt, not just at what the technology can do. That's what makes AI stick.

Built for the organizations others overlook

Most AI consultancies are built around big companies with big budgets. Small businesses and nonprofits get overlooked, or priced out entirely, even though they have just as much to gain. We started GTL to change that, with advice sized to your team and your budget.

Responsible AI, without the waste

We help you use AI safely: protecting your data, keeping people in charge of the decisions that matter, and being honest about what AI can't do. And we only recommend what you actually need, so your budget doesn't go on tools that sit unused.

Between them, our founders have supported everyone from startups to the White House.

About

Why we started GTL

We started Gateway Talent Labs to help smaller organizations adopt AI in a way that works for the people doing the work.

Most conversations about AI focus on the technology: which tools to buy and what they can do. Far less attention goes to the people expected to use them, and that is usually where adoption succeeds or stalls.

That is the side we focus on. Our backgrounds are in organizational psychology, and our research looked at how AI affects people's engagement, confidence and exhaustion at work. We bring that understanding to every recommendation we make.

Large companies have whole teams to manage new technology. Small businesses and nonprofits rarely do, so we step in as that team: helping you choose the right tools, train your people and put a clear plan in place, at a scale that makes sense for you.

Small businesses

You're bringing in AI without an IT department behind you. We help you get it right the first time.

Growing businesses

AI is already turning up in your teams' work. We help you bring it together under one clear plan.

Nonprofits

Budgets are tight and trust matters. We help you use AI where it frees up the most time, without putting your data or reputation at risk.

Services

What we do

Our three services work on their own or together.

AI Tools & Vendor Vetting

Buying AI is easy. Choosing well is harder. We work out what your team actually needs, compare the vendors, tools and models that could deliver it, and give you a clear recommendation with the reasoning behind it. You stay in control of the final decision and the setup.

What's included

  • A look at how your team works today and where AI could help most
  • A comparison of the options that fit your needs and your budget
  • Plain answers on cost, data privacy and security
  • A recommendation you can share with your team or board

A good fit if you are about to spend money on AI and want expert advice before you commit.

AI Upskilling & Workshops

Having AI tools is not the same as knowing how to use them well. Our interactive sessions are built around the work your team already does, so people leave knowing where AI helps, where it falls short, and when its output needs a second look.

What's included

  • Sessions shaped around your team's real tasks and tools
  • Practice with real examples, not just slides
  • Guidance on using AI safely, including what never to share with it

A good fit if your team has access to AI tools, but few people feel confident using them.

AI Policy & Governance

If people are already using AI at work, you need a shared plan for how. We create one with you, in language your team can follow, so everyone knows what AI can be used for, what information stays out of it, and who checks the results.

What's included

  • Which tools are approved, and what they can be used for
  • How to handle personal, client and confidential information
  • Who reviews AI output, and when
  • A plan you can update as tools and regulations change

A good fit if people are already using AI at work, and you don't have clear rules in place yet.
