PAI provides the standard, the credentials, and the delivery kit. You bring the client relationships and the capability to execute.
Six ready-to-sell engagement types with defined scope, deliverables, and indicative pricing. All backed by PAI standards and methodology. Add your margin and go.
Based on a modest 5-client portfolio, with each client taking a readiness assessment and at least one further engagement. No assumptions beyond mid-range pricing.

Certified AI Integrators get access to everything below. It's the complete commercial infrastructure for an AI practice — not slide decks, not whitepapers. Actual working tools.
You don't need to be an MSP. If you're a consultant, IT freelancer, AI specialist, or someone who wants to build a solo AI deployment practice — everything here applies to you. The CAOP credential, the M365 playbook, the proposal templates, the client comms kit.
One person with a CAOP credential, a good discovery process, and the PAI toolkit can run a $190–260k/year consulting practice delivering AI deployments to local and regional SMBs. The clients are there. The question is whether you show up credentialled or not.
When you register your firm as a Certified AI Integrator, you get a partner dashboard where you manage your team's credentials. No shared logins. Each team member keeps their own PAI account — you simply link their credential IDs to your firm.
The dashboard shows your compliance status at a glance: how many CAOP, CAIA, and other credentials are active in your team, whether you meet CAI renewal requirements, and a shareable verification URL your clients or procurement teams can check independently.
You don't need to wait for CAI status to start. Here's what you can do in the next 5 days.
Structured so every role in your MSP has a clear credential — from a junior engineer to the firm itself.
AI services represent the largest practice extension opportunity for MSPs since the migration to cloud. The firms that build a credible, certified AI practice in the next 18 months will own that position for years. The ones that don't will lose clients to those that do.
PAI isn't asking you to build from scratch. We've done the hard work: the standard exists, the methodology is published, the credentials are live, and the kit is ready. You need to train three or four people, apply for integrator status, and start having different conversations with your clients.
The clients who are asking about AI right now are your best clients. They trust you. They want you to have the answer. PAI gives you the answer.
