QLIA provides AI workforce automation, intelligent process automation, and NASA-recognized cybersecurity for small and midsize businesses. The company deploys AI employees, automates business workflows, and defends organizations against cyber threats.

How much does an AI employee from QLIA cost?

A QLIA AI employee takes over work that costs roughly $70,000–$110,000 per year fully loaded for a human hire. Exact investment is scoped to your role and workflows in a free strategy session; most clients see payback within the first quarter.

How long does it take to deploy an AI employee?

QLIA AI employees are typically operational within 2–5 business days, compared to a 42-day average time-to-fill for human hires.

How much time can AI automation save my business?

QLIA clients save an average of 15–20 hours per employee per week by automating email management, data entry, scheduling, invoicing, and reporting. For a 10-person team, that's 150+ hours per week reclaimed.

What is the difference between AI automation and outsourcing?

Outsourcing scales linearly—more work requires more people. AI automation scales exponentially: the same system handles 1,000 or 1,000,000 tasks at near-flat cost. AI also operates 24/7 with 99%+ accuracy, no turnover, and instant response times.

What cybersecurity services does QLIA offer?

QLIA's Cyber Intelligence suite includes AI-powered endpoint threat monitoring, dark web credential scanning, penetration testing, MFA enforcement, zero-trust access policies, and 24/7 incident response. The team holds NASA-recognized cybersecurity expertise.

Is QLIA suitable for small businesses?

Yes. QLIA is purpose-built for small and midsize businesses (SMBs). All solutions are designed to deploy without an internal IT team and integrate with common SMB tools like QuickBooks, HubSpot, Salesforce, Google Workspace, and Microsoft 365.

QLIA was founded by Paras Khurana, an alumnus of MIT and Caltech. The company's leadership team has 250+ years of combined Fortune 500 experience across AI, cybersecurity, and business transformation.

How do I get started with QLIA?

The fastest path is to book a free 30-minute consultation at qlia.io/consultation. QLIA's team will assess your workflows, identify automation opportunities, and deliver a custom ROI projection within 48 hours.

Can AI prevent ransomware attacks?

Yes. AI-powered endpoint monitoring detects unusual behavioral patterns—like privilege escalation or lateral movement—during the 'dwell period' before ransomware is deployed. Combined with MFA enforcement and dark web credential monitoring, QLIA's Cyber Intelligence layer stops the majority of ransomware attack vectors at the entry point.
