Bison & Bird

Bison & Bird is an AI consulting firm headquartered at 1812 4 St SW in Calgary, Alberta. It builds AI agents, workflow automations and custom automations for Canadian businesses, designed to run around the clock inside the systems a company already uses.

Projects begin with a three-step method. Calculate measures the real cost of manual work and finds workflows with a payback of one year or better, using the firm's AI Agent Payback Calculator. Capture maps the workflow with its STARR methodology (Source, Technology, Actions, Records, Result). Craft then builds the agent. Delivery follows a five-phase lifecycle: discovery and planning, design and technical preparation, development and implementation, deployment and go-live, and post-project support and optimization.
