Fresh Coast AI is a Milwaukee-based AI adoption partner serving Madison and South Central Wisconsin. We help businesses figure out where AI fits, build it into real workflows, and train your team to own it. No hype, no dependency, no open-ended billing.
Fresh Coast AI is headquartered in Milwaukee and works regularly with Madison and Dane County businesses. Founded by Jon Linton, we specialize in practical AI adoption — readiness assessments, governance frameworks, and workflow implementation — for companies. Every engagement is vendor-neutral, fixed-fee, and designed so your team can run it without us.
We understand Madison's unique ecosystem. From UW-Madison's research culture to the growing tech corridor, state government workflows, and the thriving manufacturing and services base across Dane County. We build solutions that actually fit.
We're based in Milwaukee and operate throughout the Midwest. For Madison clients, that means in-person workshops and assessments combined with efficient remote delivery. We know Wisconsin's business culture from the ground.
Manufacturing, trades, staffing, professional services, healthcare tech, and nonprofits. We work with the industries that drive Dane County's economy. Our frameworks are built for real Wisconsin workflows at 5-to-500-employee scale.
Every engagement is fixed-fee, scoped and priced upfront so there are no surprises. Pricing typically ranges from $1,000 to $55,000 depending on company size and engagement length.
Every engagement follows our Assess → Build → Own framework. We start with where you are, build around how your team actually works, and leave you with capability you own.
