ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — OVERVIEW
Inquiries answered every hour they arrive — qualified, in the caller’s language, booked to real calendars. Engagement files, deliverables and methodologies that answer back with citations. One AI system for the rainmaking side and the delivery side of your firm — isolated in YOUR private tenant, or on your own server.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

A real deployment view: client records, project rooms, scheduled recap works — the firm in one screen.
The Tuesday 2 PM call from a would-be client lands while every partner is in a billable meeting. The AI answers, asks your qualifying questions, and books the discovery call — 24/7, in up to 40 languages.
“How did we structure the diligence workplan on the 2024 logistics engagement?” — answered in seconds from the engagement library, with the deliverable attached. Twenty years of work, one question away.
Client walls enforced by five-level workgroups and field-level permissions — the team on one engagement cannot see the next — with an on-premises option for firms whose clients demand it.
Every unanswered inquiry is a shortlist your firm is not on. The Zanus front office answers every ring and every web form, captures RFP requests with scope and deadline, qualifies against your criteria, and books discovery calls into partners’ real calendars.


Friday 5 PM: the utilization recap is drafted from the week’s timesheets, bench capacity flagged, overruns explained — ready for the Monday partner meeting. Engagement files, methodologies and playbooks become a system that answers with sources cited.
Engineering firms on defense work, advisories holding market-moving material, agencies under strict client NDAs run the identical OS on Zanus hardware inside their walls: air-gap capable, USB updates, unlimited users — client files physically incapable of leaving.

No. The client-facing AI handles inquiries, scheduling and firm information; the back office drafts and organizes for YOUR professionals to review. The consultant recommends, the engineer approves, the partner signs — always.
Yes: one tenant with workgroups per practice group, office or engagement, or separate tenants on shared infrastructure. Each team sees exactly what its role and walls allow.
Those professions have their own Zanus editions built around their specific workflows. This edition serves consulting, engineering and architecture, advisory and research boutiques, and agencies.
ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — FRONT OFFICE
The people who can win new work are the same people billing the current work — so inquiries wait, and shortlists close. The Zanus front office answers on your firm’s voice, qualifies, captures RFPs and books discovery calls — 24/7, in up to 40 languages.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

Calls, chats, qualified leads and booked discovery calls — one dashboard the BD lead can read.
The request lands after the business-development lead has left. The AI answers, captures scope, deadline and submission requirements, files it to the pipeline, and books the go/no-go call for Monday morning.
Callers are asked YOUR qualifying questions — sector, scope, timeline, budget range — and only the fits reach a partner’s calendar. The rest get a courteous, on-brand answer.
A prospect writes in Portuguese at 11 PM about a feasibility study; the answer goes out in Portuguese in minutes, from your approved firm information — and the lead is qualified by morning.
A prospective client calls about an operations review; the AI answers, outlines how the firm engages, asks the qualifying questions, offers real open slots and books the discovery call into the right partner’s calendar — while that partner stays in the billable session next door.


Website chat grounded in your approved practice descriptions answers “have you done this before?” with real (approved) credentials; proposal-request forms are answered in minutes — inquiry-to-shortlist while competitors are still returning voicemails.
Only by your rules: rate cards, ranges or “the partner will discuss fees” — you decide per practice area what the AI may say and to whom.
Yes. Your numbers stay; calls route to the AI first, staff first, or any mix per line and per hour — the main line and a partner’s direct line can behave differently.
Recognized clients route by your rules: straight to the engagement manager, or answered with engagement-scoped information and escalated with the transcript attached.
ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — BACK OFFICE
Engagement letters, SOWs, workplans, deliverables, timesheets, debriefs: a firm’s product is documents. The Zanus back office turns that archive into a working AI staff — drafting recaps, retrieving precedent, answering with sources cited, under your professionals’ sign-off.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

A real session: weekly recap drafted — sources cited, milestones tracked, human review pending.
Weekly utilization recaps, monthly pipeline summaries, post-engagement debrief drafts — assigned to the AI like to an analyst, executed on schedule, fully auditable.
Each engagement gets a room: calendar, tasks, milestones and documents shared by the team and the AI — who drafts, tracks and reminds inside the same walls.
Every AI-drafted deliverable section, recap or letter lands in Output awaiting review. Nothing reaches a client without a professional’s decision.
The AI reads the week’s timesheets and project records, drafts the recap — utilization by consultant, bench capacity, engagements trending over budget — and files it for the operations lead before the weekend. Monday’s partner meeting starts from facts, not from assembling them.


The proposal that eats a principal’s weekend: the AI retrieves the closest past engagements, drafts the approach section from your methodology library in your templates, and attaches the precedent it drew on — the principal edits instead of starting blank.
It drafts sections, assembles precedent and formats in your templates — and every word ships only after your professionals review and sign off. The judgment stays with the firm.
Yes — workgroups per engagement plus field-level permissions mean the team on one client’s project cannot see another’s files, calendars included, enforced server-side.

ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — ENGAGEMENTS
Engagement letters, SOWs, workplans, final deliverables, RFP responses, case studies — loaded into curated libraries the AI reads from. Ask in plain language; get the answer with the source cited, inside the walls of whoever asks.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

Libraries: final deliverables outrank drafts, current playbooks outrank retired ones — you set the order.
Decks, models, reports, scanned signed letters, recorded readouts — the ingestion pipeline turns what engagements produce into queryable knowledge.
No source in your library, no claim: the AI cites the deliverable, the SOW clause, the playbook page — or says it cannot answer.
A consultant staffed on the retail client asks about precedent; answers draw only on engagements their walls allow — enforced server-side, not by etiquette.
“What did we quote for the 2023 plant-relocation study?” “Which engagements used the market-sizing method?” “Who wrote our last hospital-sector proposal?” Answered in seconds with documents attached — instead of asking around until someone remembers.

Only the roles and workgroups you authorize. Permissions reach the field level and the server redacts what a user cannot see — even in shared views and calendars.
Never. Your tenant is isolated; your clients’ material and your methods are yours alone — and the on-premises option keeps them physically inside your building.
ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — AI WORKFORCE
Assign work to the AI the way you staff an engagement: type, sources, deadline, recurrence. Utilization recaps, pipeline summaries, debrief drafts — executed on schedule, with citations, under review — and none of it burns a billable hour.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

Four steps: work type, records and libraries, tags, schedule — the AI takes it from there.
Utilization recap, pipeline summary, engagement debrief, proposal precedent pull: work types molded to your firm, with default libraries and examples per type.
The AI’s workload is managed like the bench: one-click views show what is urgent, late, today and tomorrow — the pre-meeting brief never slips silently.
Every work is a full session: reasoning streamed, sources cited, milestones tracked, linked to the client record and the engagement calendar.
Set “Weekly Utilization Recap” once: every Friday the AI reads timesheets and project records, drafts utilization by consultant with bench capacity and overruns explained, and files it for the operations lead — the work every firm needs and no one wants to bill zero hours doing.

Yes — open any session, read the reasoning, redirect it, or stop it. The AI works like staff: visible, accountable, interruptible.
It does not get tired: five RFPs in one week get five precedent pulls and five draft skeletons. The constraint is your review capacity, not the AI’s.
ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — METHODOLOGIES
A firm’s edge is HOW it works: delivery methodologies, QA checklists, proposal standards, engagement playbooks. In Zanus they are living documents: answerable in chat, attached to work, priority-ordered so the current method always wins over the retired one.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

Work types carry their methods: the proposal draft reads from the proposal playbook — by construction.
Diligence workplans, design-review checklists, research protocols, brand-voice standards: one library, current versions on top, superseded ones outranked.
“What does our methodology say about stakeholder interviews under a two-week deadline?” — answered in seconds with the playbook page attached, at 2 PM or 2 AM.
The AI drafting a proposal approach section reads from the proposal standard; the debrief draft follows the debrief template — method adherence by construction.
Quarterly methodology reviews, retired-playbook archiving, update summaries briefed to the whole firm: assign them once as recurring AI work and the methods stop living in one senior partner’s head.

Upload the new version, set it on top: from that moment every answer and every AI work cites the new method. Old versions remain archived — useful when revisiting past engagements.
ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — TEAM TRAINING
Every new consultant class relearns the firm the slow way: shadowing, asking, guessing. Now new hires learn your methodologies from the AI, and every consultant has an assistant that answers “how does the firm do…?” instantly — without spending a senior’s billable hour.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

Training lives inside the software: the AI walks each hire through the firm’s own methods and templates.
A new associate learns the deliverable templates, the diligence workplan, the timesheet rules and the proposal standard through guided training — staffed on client work in days, not months.
“How do I structure the readout deck for a market study?” — asked to the assistant, answered from the playbook with the template attached, without pulling a principal out of a client session.
Private chats work on any device with a login — the how-to knowledge follows the consultant to the client site, the airport and the home office.

The tenth “how do I book time to a fixed-fee engagement?” gets the same patient, cited answer as the first — from the current timesheet policy, not from whoever happens to be at the next desk. Training stays current automatically, because the assistant reads the same living libraries as everything else.
No — the assistant answers from the live libraries. Update the methodology once and every future answer updates with it.
ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — AUTOMATIONS
Describe the job in plain words — “when a signed engagement letter arrives, file it to the client record and draft the kickoff checklist” — and it becomes connected blocks on a canvas, running on its own, with every run visible.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

A real flow: inbox trigger, record sources, AI compile, three outputs — drawn from a description.
A signed engagement letter triggers the project room: kickoff checklist drafted, milestones proposed from the SOW, the team’s calendar holds suggested — all awaiting the engagement manager’s approval.
Thursday evening: consultants with missing time get the reminder in their own chat; Friday the utilization recap drafts from complete data instead of holes.
An RFP lands in the inbox: scope, deadline and requirements extracted, the pipeline record created, a go/no-go brief drafted with the closest precedent engagements attached.
Run states live on the flow: green success, red failure on the exact block. A kickoff checklist that silently never generated becomes a missed deliverable three weeks later — here, nothing fails silently.

Your rules: queue everything for human approval, or auto-send only the categories you designate as safe — internal timesheet nudges yes, anything client-facing gated.
ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — CLIENT OUTREACH
Past-client reactivation, thought-leadership notes to opted-in contacts, engagement-anniversary check-ins, event invitations — drafted by the AI from your own records, in your firm’s voice, queued for approval. The BD discipline every firm intends to have, finally on schedule.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

Campaigns and sequences drafted from the records — reactivations, check-ins, invitations — awaiting approval.
Clients-not-engaged-in-18-months, sector-by-sector, past-attendees-of-your-roundtables: audiences built from your own client categories — no exported lists, no third-party tool.
A check-in to a former client reads like the partner wrote it — because it drafts from the engagement history and your approved firm language, then waits for that partner’s edit.
Opt-outs and contact preferences are enforced by the system, not by memory. Every send is on the record.
The audience, the content and the sending live in the same system as your client records — nothing leaves your tenant to reach a mailing platform. “Invite every manufacturing client from the last five years to the supply-chain briefing” becomes a drafted, scheduled sequence in minutes.


Every outbound client communication lands in the approval queue unless you designate the category as auto-send. Nothing reaches a client — or a client’s inbox two weeks after a difficult engagement — without a human deciding it should.
Yes — approval routing follows your rules: by client owner, practice group or communication type, with the full draft and history in front of the approver.
The drafts draw on the engagement history in your records, and nothing sends without approval — the relationship judgment stays with the partner who holds it.
ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — PSA & INTEGRATIONS
Your PSA — the project-and-billing system the firm runs on — stays the system of record. Zanus becomes the system of work: connectors sync clients, projects and time data both ways, the intake pipeline files what arrives, and AI-drafted recaps flow back where they belong. No rip and replace.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

No rip and replace: the PSA, the billing system and the calendars stay — the AI layer connects to all of them.
Clients, projects, budgets and time entries mapped field by field, with a dry-run preview before anything writes — push, pull or two-way, your choice.
Salesforce and HubSpot connectors keep the pipeline synced — the RFP the AI triaged appears where your BD lead already works, push, pull or two-way with dry-run.
A full API for whatever else the firm runs: document management, resource planning, client portals — data in, results out, under scoped keys.
The budget lives in the PSA, the deliverable in the engagement library, the pipeline in the CRM — and the AI reads across all of it. “Where do we stand with this client?” becomes one question with one grounded answer.


The utilization recap, the drafted proposal section, the kickoff checklist: finished documents return to the client and project records through the same connectors — reviewed and approved by your professionals first.
Connectors are mapped per deployment — bring your PSA and billing system to the demo and we walk through the exact integration path for your stack.
No. The connectors run inside your tenant — or inside your building on the on-premises option. Data moves directly between your systems.
ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — COMPLIANCE
A firm’s license to operate is confidentiality: what one client shares, no other client’s team may see. Here that is not a policy memo — it is five-level workgroups, field-level permissions and server-side redaction, with a searchable audit trail and an on-premises option behind it.
Private tenant or your own server · unlimited users · engagement-confidentiality-conscious architecture

Workgroups map the firm: practice groups, offices, engagements — each wall enforced server-side.
The team on the retail client cannot open, search or even surface the manufacturing client’s files — the wall is the permission model, not a reminder in the handbook.
A staffing coordinator sees that a consultant is booked without seeing for whom; a shared calendar shows the hold, not the client name — redacted server-side.
Before intake, one permissioned question — “have we worked with or against this company?” — searches the records you authorize, with every lookup on the audit trail.
When a client’s procurement team asks how their material is protected, the answers are structural: isolated tenant, nothing training outside models, permissions to the field level, searchable audit trail — and for the strictest engagements, an air-gapped server inside your own building.

Yes — workgroups reach five levels and combine with field-level permissions, so a wall can be a practice group, an office or a single engagement team, enforced server-side.
The architecture is engagement-confidentiality-conscious by design, and the audit trail documents it. Deployment specifics are reviewed with our team during onboarding — bring your client’s questionnaire to the demo.
ZANUS AI FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES — LIVE DEMO
Big vendors show industry demos as videos behind a form. Ours is the product itself, configured for professional services: open the chat below-right and try it — bring it a project inquiry, ask how it books a discovery call, or how it would draft your weekly recap.
The conversation you have with us IS the demo

This screen is watching demos like yours happen: live conversations, outcomes, first response in seconds.
Ask the chat: “we need help with a supply-chain cost study” — watch it qualify scope and timeline and offer the discovery call like your sharpest BD hire.
Ask: “how would you draft the Friday utilization recap?” — it walks the workflow it would run in your tenant, grounded, cited, sign-off included.
The full demo loads a professional-services tenant with sample records: precedent pulls, recap drafts, walled engagements — your firm’s world, working.
Every link below is a full live-demo page for that specific business — its vocabulary, its calls, its booking rules.
Request the demo and the interactive professional-services demo arrives in about two minutes — no sales call, no calendar dance. Watch it, interrupt it with questions, and book the human conversation when YOU are ready.

Yes — the same AI, configured with a sample firm tenant. What you see is what your consultants get, with your engagements and methods instead of the samples.
