The Innovating With AI "Certified AI Consultant Directory" Launches!

Today I’m excited to share something I’ve been looking forward to for a while: the launch of the IWAI Certified Consultant Directory.

I’m proud to be one of the very first consultants listed, and even prouder knowing what that represents. Out of more than 1,000 people enrolled in the program, just a couple dozen of us have made it through the full certification so far.

Most directories work the same way: pay more, rank higher. Some even skim off your projects with platform fees or lock you into their messaging system. That might work for ad clicks, but it doesn’t work for trust.

The IWAI Directory was built differently:

• No ads, no sponsored profiles. Listings are randomized within tiers, so you don’t just see who paid the most.

• No commissions or hidden cuts. If you find me here, it’s a direct relationship — no middleman.

• Vetted consultants only. Each listing is reviewed by IWAI staff based on actual client work and ethics.

• Backed by community. We share best practices and support each other, so when you hire one of us, you benefit from the collective.

For me, this isn’t just another directory. It’s a platform that keeps the focus where it belongs: helping clients succeed with AI.

FAQs - Innovating With AI (IWAI)'s Certified Consultants Directory: What makes it different?

Q: What is the IWAI Certified Consultant Directory?

It’s a curated list of AI consultants who’ve actually been vetted on real client work, not pay-to-play profiles. No ads, no commissions, just people you can trust.

Q: How are listings ordered?

No “top spot” you can buy. Within support tiers, listings are randomized so you’re not just seeing whoever paid the most.

Q: Does IWAI take a cut if I hire you?

Nope. There’s no platform tax or referral fee! If you find me through the directory, it’s a direct client–consultant relationship.

Q: What does “vetted” mean here?

Human review based on real outcomes, ethics, and long-term client relationships, not a multiple-choice test.

Q: Why am I excited about this launch?

Because it aligns incentives with client results. It’s built to help you find qualified help fast, without marketplace games.

Q: How do we get started?

Skim the directory to see fit, or just book time with me. We’ll map use cases, prioritize ROI, and move from idea to working workflow.
