SAI Services and Anthropy Advisory today announced their merger to form Anthropy AI, a specialized AI solutions provider dedicated to empowering small and mid-sized businesses across construction, automotive, telecommunications, professional services, and artisan industries.

The merger combines SAI’s three decades of business transformation expertise with Anthropy’s deep operational insight to deliver practical, results-driven AI implementation for companies that need it most.

While enterprise corporations invest billions in AI capabilities, working-class businesses—from telecom construction to architects, contractors to craftspeople—often lack the internal resources and capital to leverage this transformational technology. Anthropy AI exists to bridge that gap, offering accessible, industry-specific AI solutions designed for businesses operating on thin margins in competitive markets.

“This merger represents the culmination of everything we’ve built at SAI Services,” said Jason Welz, General Partner of SAI Services. “We’ve spent decades mastering business transformation, and now we’re combining that experience with Anthropy’s unique ability to understand what small and mid-sized businesses actually need. Together, we’re not just offering AI—we’re delivering solutions that help working-class companies compete, grow, and win in their markets. The businesses driving our economy deserve world-class technology, and that’s exactly what we’re here to provide.”

Shayne Cole, Managing Director of Anthropy, emphasized the merger’s focus on practical impact: “The greatest opportunity in AI isn’t with Fortune 500 companies that already have innovation teams—it’s with the contractor who needs to win more bids, the dealership that loses customers during the desk wait, or the telecom crew trying to meet deadlines. These businesses create jobs, serve their communities, and drive real economic growth. By combining Anthropy’s boots-on-the-ground understanding with SAI’s proven transformation capabilities, we’re bringing enterprise-grade AI to the businesses that will benefit from it most but have been left behind in this tectonic shift.”

Anthropy AI specializes in solving specific business challenges across multiple industries:

Telecom & Tower: Reducing site deployment from months to weeks, maximizing colocation revenue, and eliminating SLA penalties
Automotive: Accelerating deal cycles, increasing F&I penetration, and eliminating transaction friction
Construction & Installation: Winning more bids with faster estimates, maintaining cash flow through automated billing, and reducing project cost overruns
Professional Services: Converting prospects faster, capturing all billable time, and scaling client capacity without additional headcount
Artisans & Craftspeople: Automating administrative burdens so talented professionals can focus on their craft

The combined company operates from offices in St. Petersburg and Clearwater, Florida; Charlotte, North Carolina; Richmond, Virginia; and Washington, D.C. For more information about Anthropy AI and its industry-specific solutions, visit www.anthropyai.com.
