Do you have an office in Atlanta?

No, and we will not pretend otherwise. DoubleChecked is headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, and much of our current client work is in the Atlanta metro. We are on site in Atlanta for the sessions that matter, discovery, leadership reviews, and training, and we work remotely the rest of the time. You get senior advisory without paying for anyone's Atlanta office space.

Our staff handles MNPI. Can they use AI at all?

Yes, with the right controls. Material non-public information is exactly the kind of data that must never touch a public AI tool, so the answer is governance plus configuration: a data classification keyed to authorization, an approved-tools list your compliance team can defend, and enterprise AI set up with no-training commitments, SSO, and retention and access controls. We built AI governance for an SEC-registered investment adviser designed to survive examination, and that is the standard we work to.

Which Atlanta firms is this built for?

Regulated and high-stakes firms, typically 20 to 250 staff: registered investment advisers, CPA and forensic accounting firms, law firms, and other practices where client data carries a professional obligation. If a managing partner, CEO, or founder is asking how the firm can use AI without creating exposure, that is the conversation we are built for.

Do you resell AI software or take vendor commissions?

No. DoubleChecked has no resale arrangements and no vendor commissions, including on Claude. When we recommend a tool, it is because it fits your firm, not because we earn margin on it. The only thing for sale is judgment, backed by the engineering to act on it.

Do you also provide fractional CTO services in Atlanta?

Yes. Our virtual CTO service, also called a fractional CTO, gives Atlanta businesses senior technology leadership on a part-time basis: roadmap, vendor oversight, security posture, and budget. Many Atlanta clients fold AI advisory into that broader engagement.

How does an Atlanta engagement start?

Fixed-fee discovery first, then a fixed-fee pilot, then an optional monthly advisory retainer. You know the scope and the price before any work starts. Discovery for Atlanta clients typically includes an on-site working day with your leadership team.

Why Atlanta Firms Are Calling

Atlanta firms are adopting AI faster than their governance can keep up.

Atlanta is one of the largest professional-services markets in the Southeast, and its regulated firms are adopting AI faster than their governance can keep up. Registered investment advisers handling material non-public information, CPA firms in the middle of workpapers and client financials, law firms carrying privilege: all of them are hearing the same pitch from vendors, and almost none of them are hearing what has to be true before staff can paste client information into a chatbot.

DoubleChecked sits on your side of the table. We do not resell AI software and we take no vendor commissions, so the recommendation serves your firm and not our margin. Much of our current client work is in the Atlanta metro, and the pattern is consistent: the firms that get AI right start with governance and independence, not with a tool.

How It Works with an Atlanta Client

On site in Atlanta when it matters, remote the rest of the time.

DoubleChecked is headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, and serves Atlanta and the surrounding metro with an active client base there. We are on site for the sessions that matter and remote for the rest, which keeps the work senior and the overhead off your invoice. Every engagement follows the same shape:

Fixed-Fee Discovery

We inventory the AI already in use at your firm, review your data obligations, and deliver written findings with a prioritized plan. For Atlanta clients this typically includes an on-site working day with your leadership team. Scope and price agreed before work starts.

Fixed-Fee Pilot

One governed rollout or one build, proven on real work: a policy your staff is trained on, a Claude deployment configured to your rules, or a document automation with an audit trail.

Optional Advisory Retainer

Ongoing AI leadership folded into your operating rhythm: vendor evaluation, governance updates, training, and build oversight. In person in Atlanta when it matters, remote the rest of the time. Month to month, no long-term contract.
