AI tools are revolutionizing the daily operations of consulting agencies. They provide a generative solution capable of optimizing project management. Between time savings, anticipation, and improved reliability of deliverables, AI has become a true strategic lever.
AI Tools: Transforming the Consulting Agency Sector
Artificial intelligence is no longer a curiosity reserved for laboratories or major American tech platforms. It’s now part of the daily routine in consulting agencies. Project management, deliverable production, operational monitoring, client relations: everything is affected. Concretely, how are AI tools changing the game? And more importantly, how can we leverage them intelligently?
AI doesn’t replace the consultant’s job, but it reconfigures the rules of the game. According to a McKinsey study, between 60 and 70% of tasks in consulting professions can be partially automated or accelerated thanks to AI. In France, many firms are already integrating generative AI into their work methods.
The question is therefore not whether to use a generative solution to improve agency productivity, but how to implement it and for which use cases?
Types of AI Tools for Agencies
There’s no need to overcomplicate things. The most commonly used AI tools primarily fall into three categories:
Generative AI
Writing summaries, responding to RFPs, automatically populated PowerPoint presentations: a generative solution like ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini can save several hours per week without reducing quality.
Machine Learning
Predictive models for sales forecasts, anomaly detection in financial data, dynamic customer segmentation: ML allows firms to move from diagnosis to prediction.
NLP (Natural Language Processing)
To quickly extract insights from reports, contracts, or customer verbatims. Who hasn’t dreamed of an assistant that reads 300 pages to extract the five contentious points in less than 10 seconds?
Smoother Project Management: More Profitable Missions
Where AI tools make a real difference is in project management and task planning daily. Here’s what’s changing for firms…
Fewer Repetitive Tasks
Automatic note-taking, reports written in 3 minutes, pre-filled dynamic pivot tables: all these time-consuming micro-tasks can be delegated to AI tools. The result? Your teams refocus on analysis, consulting, and value.
Faster, More Consistent Deliverables
No more last-minute presentations or inconsistent slides between two consultants. artificial intelligence allows for standardizing deliverables, generating intelligent templates, and improving readability. As a bonus: less stress at the end of the mission.
Data-Driven Organization
Thanks to AI tools embedded in project management platforms (Notion, Asana, ClickUp), you can visualize in real-time the progress status, bottlenecks, budget variances, or workload peaks. No need to chase after information, it comes to you.
AI-Based Technological Assets
What if generative AI tools also allowed for reinventing the business model of agencies and consulting firms ? Too often, consulting is limited to selling man-hours. However, a firm that structures its assets – internal AI tools, methodologies, databases – can offer high-value packaged offerings.
Here are some very concrete examples:
- A sector benchmark continuously enriched via AI.
- A semi-automated strategic diagnostic platform.
- A ready-to-use customer feedback database.
These assets allow for improved billing, increased efficiency, and most importantly, differentiation from the competition.
Integrating AI Tools to Meet Expectations
Let’s face it: clients are also becoming more demanding. They want faster responses, more detailed analyses, more interactive formats. AI tools help you tick these boxes… provided you integrate them well into your approach.
More Dynamic Presentations
Instead of the eternal 80-page PDF report, why not offer an interactive dashboard, a voice summary, or even a presentation chatbot? Pioneering firms are already doing this – and clients love it.
More Targeted, More Relevant Advice
Thanks to AI tools and ERPs like Furious, you adapt your recommendations to the sector, context, and digital maturity level of the client… without starting from scratch each time. You gain in precision, and therefore credibility.
“Thanks to Furious, we’ve gained transparency with our clients. They have access to real-time information, such as project progress or delays, which allows us to increase communication with factual data rather than a simple Excel file that can be modified at any time.”
Quote from Nicolas Quilliet – Wokine
AI Tools in Agencies: Project Management Facilitator
It can’t be said enough: AI doesn’t replace humans, it augments them. This means supporting your teams during implementation. You should therefore plan for:
- Training on AI tools (and their proper use).
- Workshops to decipher limitations and risks.
- Valuing human skills: critical thinking, interpersonal skills, synthesis.
You become the conductor between human expertise and the algorithmic power of AI tools.
Making AI an Ally, Not a Gimmick
Artificial intelligence is profoundly transforming the daily life of agencies. It doesn’t just “save time”: it allows for elevating the quality of advice, enriching offerings, and retaining clients.
So, do your tools really simplify your life or do they weigh down your processes?
What if now was the right time to transform your routines into lasting assets and make your AI… an asset as reliable as a senior consultant?
The integration of AI tools profoundly transforms agency operations: automation of repetitive tasks, better anticipation of project risks, more responsive deliverables, more targeted advice. However, for these technological innovations to produce a real impact — and not just result in a stack of isolated tools — they must be integrated into a coherent, transversal, and manageable system.
This is precisely what the Furious ERP offers. By centralizing commercial, operational, and financial data in a single intelligent environment, Furious allows agencies to get the best out of AI, while maintaining fine control over their overall performance. Designed for agencies and consulting firms, the management tool centralizes all of a company’s processes, promoting comprehensive and precise activity management through a single dashboard.
"Having a tool that covers the entire value chain, from ‘quote generation to production and delivery, allows us to’ be much more coherent and to better control our processes."
Predictive analysis, assisted resource allocation, quote automation, task planning, invoicing, real-time reporting and profitability monitoring: Furious acts as a catalyst. It transforms the promises of AI into concrete results for both teams and managers.
You might be Asking Yourself these Questions?
01 What is Automatic Transaction Categorization?
This is an AI-based feature that automatically categorizes your expenses according to their nature, for simplified and more reliable financial tracking.
02 how Does Furious AI Work to Categorize Transactions?
With each import or bank synchronization, the AI analyzes the label, amount, and context to suggest a relevant category and tags. You validate, adjust if necessary, and the tool learns from your choices.
03 What are the Benefits of Automatic Categorization for Financial Teams?
Less manual entry, better accounting consistency, reduced human errors, and significant time savings on recurring tasks.
04 Can You Maintain Control over the Categories Suggested by the AI?
Yes, you remain in control of the suggestions: each classification can be accepted, modified, or refined. Automation supports, not replaces.
05 Does the AI Improve its Suggestions over Time?
Absolutely. The more you use the feature, the more the AI learns from your corrections and offers categorizations tailored to your habits.
06 who is this Feature for?
For financial managers, executives, or anyone looking to automate accounting processing, optimize cash flow, and focus on analysis rather than data entry.
