Before building Consulting IQ, the team conducted
more than 10,000 interviews
with business owners, executives, consultants, advisors, and industry leaders
across more than 50 markets.
Those interviews identified the recurring decision-making gaps that SMBs face
and became the foundation of Consulting IQ's proprietary business knowledge model.
Unlike generic AI assistants, Consulting IQ combines AI, management consulting methodologies, industry benchmarking, financial analytics, business performance indicators, consulting frameworks, human expertise, document intelligence, and predictive business analysis into a single Decision Intelligence ecosystem.

Both.
Consulting IQ is AI-first at its core — answers available immediately,
at any hour, without booking a call.
But the frameworks and knowledge base were developed with seasoned business
consultants and business school research teams, informed by 10,000+ real-world interviews.
Human consultants are also accessible to subscribers for additional specialized support. AI handles the speed and scale, people handle the nuance when needed.

At signup you provide information about your business, industry, size, and goals —
this context shapes every AI response from day one.
You can also upload your own documents so the AI works with your actual data,
not hypothetical scenarios.
The platform's benchmarking tools compare your performance metrics against real peers in your sector, making recommendations specific to where you actually stand in your market.

- Small and medium-sized business owners
- Entrepreneurs and startups
- Family businesses
- Professional services firms
- Retailers, manufacturers, and e-commerce companies

Consulting IQ vs. other tools
General AI tools are broad-purpose assistants.
Consulting IQ is a focused Decision Intelligence Platform built exclusively
for business decision-making:
- Industry context from day one — the platform applies your business type, industry, and goals to every response
- Pre-built consulting frameworks — hundreds of expert-designed methodologies across strategy, finance, marketing, and operations
- Your own data in the loop — upload your documents and the AI references your actual numbers
- Market benchmarking — compare your performance against real industry peers
- Proprietary knowledge model — built from 10,000+ interviews across 50+ markets, not generic internet data
Traditional consulting engagements for SMBs typically cost thousands of dollars
per month and are limited to scheduled sessions.
Consulting IQ provides on-demand Decision Intelligence starting at
$49/month, available 24/7 with no scheduling friction.
It does not replace specialized legal, tax, or regulatory advisors — but for the strategic and operational decisions business owners face daily, it delivers expert-quality guidance at a fraction of the cost.

About the company

Diego Medone,
an entrepreneur based in Miami, FL.

with almost no access to the expert guidance large corporations relied on.
Before building the platform, his team conducted more than 10,000 interviews with business owners, executives, and advisors across 50+ markets to identify the decision-making gaps SMBs consistently face.
