HOLLINGER AI · Applied AI Performance Systems
AI that works.
Without the complexity.
- Built around your operation — not a packaged product
- Custom-designed and simple for your team to run
- Backed by a focused company structure of builders, operators, and technical partners
What We Do
We build AI that fits your operation.
Not the other way around.
Workflow Automation
Eliminate the manual overhead killing your team's time. We identify the bottlenecks and automate them — without disrupting what already works.
AI Integration
Connect your existing stack to purpose-built AI. No rebuilds. No migrations that drag for months. Clean, fast, functional.
Strategy & Deployment
From audit to production in weeks, not quarters. We build the roadmap and then we execute it. One team, start to finish.
Industries We Serve

03

We ship. You see results. No six-month handoff. No follow-on contract to make the first one work.

About
We work with operations leaders.
Not their IT departments.
Hollinger AI Power Solutions is an AI workflow integration firm. We work with organizations that have real operational complexity — and no patience for solutions that take 18 months to show value.
Our team has deployed AI inside manufacturing facilities, industrial operations, logistics businesses, and trades organizations — the kinds of businesses where a broken process has a real dollar cost and a theoretical solution is worth nothing. We don't sell strategy. We sell outcomes, and we stay until the outcome is real.
Client obsession isn't a value on our website. It's the reason clients call us back. If you need a solution your team can actually run — without calling us every time something changes, without a six-month training program, and without a follow-on contract to make the first one work — you are describing exactly what we build.
HOLLINGER AI was founded by Justin Strange — entrepreneur, operator, and builder behind Hollinger Holdings, a portfolio of AI-driven companies operating across media, technology, and business systems. HOLLINGER AI operates through a focused company structure of AI builders, operators, designers, and technical partners with one mandate: build AI that works in the real world, for businesses that can't afford for it not to.

Client Testimonials
Don't take our word for it.
“
We went from 40 hours of manual reconciliation per week to under four. Hollinger built it, tested it, and handed it over running. That was eight months ago. It hasn't missed a beat.
Rachel Torres
VP of Operations, Meridian Logistics Group
“
Every AI vendor we spoke to wanted a six-month discovery phase. Hollinger was in production in five weeks. The difference is they came in already knowing what the problem was.
Michael Brennan
Chief Operating Officer, Harwick Capital
“
What I didn't expect was how available they stayed after go-live. Most firms disappear. These people picked up the phone. That matters more than the technology.
Yvonne Castillo
Director of Clinical Operations, Northgate Health Systems
FAQ
Questions we get before every engagement.
We're not a tech company. Is AI actually relevant to us?
That's exactly who we work with. Manufacturers, industrial operations, trades businesses, and logistics firms have some of the highest concentrations of repetitive, manual processes — quoting, scheduling, job tracking, inventory, compliance documentation. These are the workflows where AI creates the most immediate ROI. You don't need to be a tech company to benefit. You just need processes worth fixing.
How long does an engagement take?
Most deployments are in production within three to five weeks. That covers the audit, the integration build, testing, and handoff. Larger or more complex workflows take longer, but we scope that clearly before we start. We don't begin an engagement without a realistic timeline on the table.
Do you work with our existing software and equipment?
Yes. We build around what you already have. We don't require you to change platforms, buy new software, or retrain your team on a new system. The integration fits into your existing operation — that's the point.
Do we need to hire technical staff to manage it after deployment?
No. Every solution we build is designed for your team to run without technical expertise. We stay involved after go-live and handle any issues that come up. You're not on your own the moment we hand it over.
What makes Hollinger AI different from other AI vendors?
Most vendors sell platforms or pitch transformation. We sell a specific outcome for a specific problem, build it, and stay until it works. We take on a limited number of engagements so every client gets a bespoke solution and direct access to the people who built it — not an account manager reading from a script.
