We come from cybersecurity and AI architecture, not growth hacking and buzzword marketing. Every system we build is designed to last, not to impress on a demo call.
After two decades in cybersecurity and years of building enterprise AI agent systems, we kept hearing the same thing from friends, family, and colleagues:
"I know AI could help me, but I have no idea where to start. And honestly? I don't trust most of these tools with my data."
So we started building personal AI setups for people we knew. Word spread. Demand grew. And we realized: there's a massive gap between "use ChatGPT" and "build your own AI infrastructure." That gap is where Catalyst lives.
When your AI knows your schedule, your emails, your health data, and your projects, "we take security seriously" isn't enough. Here's what we actually do.
We architect every system with clear data boundaries. You know exactly what goes where, who can access it, and how to shut it all down if you ever need to. No mystery. No "trust us."
We understand prompt injection, data exfiltration, and model poisoning, the attacks most people don't know exist yet. SOC 2-ready audit logs and zero-knowledge architecture mean your system is designed to resist them from day one.
Every AI interaction can be traced. For regulated professionals (attorneys, healthcare workers, financial advisors), this isn't optional. It's the reason they can use AI at all.
Privacy-conscious? That's exactly who we built this for. Start with a free audit and see how we approach data handling.

If you don't need a $5,000 setup, we'll tell you. If ChatGPT alone solves your problem, we'll say that. We recommend what actually helps, not what maximizes our invoice.
We don't create dependency. We teach you to understand, use, and extend what we build. Our success metric is your independence, not your retainer payments.
AI changes fast. We build systems designed to evolve, not break. And we stick around to make sure they do, because a setup that stops working in 6 months isn't a setup worth paying for.
You know AI matters. You don't have 40 hours to figure it out. You need someone who can just build it right, explain it clearly, and keep it running.
You need a team but can't hire one. AI can be your team, handling research, emails, scheduling, and content, if someone architects it properly.
You're an attorney, doctor, therapist, or advisor. You WANT AI but can't risk client data. You need someone who understands compliance, not just capability.
You've tried 20 tools and nothing sticks. You've watched the YouTube tutorials. You need someone to architect this properly, just once, so it actually works.
Free AI audit. We'll learn about your goals, show you what's possible, and give you an honest recommendation, even if it's "you don't need us."
