AI & Data Intelligence Services Adelaide | MARS

The Real Picture

If your IT partner hasn't raised AI with you, that's the tell.

The shift isn't coming. It's happened. The Australian businesses pulling ahead in the next two years will be the ones whose data, security and AI sit on the same operating model. Most aren't there yet. for three reasons.

Fragmented data

Critical information scattered across finance in Xero, tickets in your PSA, licensing in portals, HR in spreadsheets. AI on top of fragmented data answers fragmented questions.

Vendor-led AI

Generic chatbots, off-the-shelf integrations, models that change pricing and behaviour quarterly. A tool stack you rent rather than a system you own. AI that's somebody else's product strategy.

GRC as an afterthought

Data sovereignty, IAM, audit trail, responsible use. the hard parts. glossed over. The pilot ships, security can't sign off, the project stalls. We've been the firm that comes in and untangles it.

Our AI framework

MARS

Multiple Application Rendering Surface

Built so AI ships in weeks, not years.

A framework, not a product. Snap-in modules, pre-built recipes, and the security, governance and AI plumbing we have already shipped and tested. So your AI strategy lands as a system you actually own.

Every deployment is custom to you. Nothing is built from zero. The boring parts. IAM, audit, encryption, deployment, data pipelines, AI inference. are solved once, in the framework. What we build for you is the business part. the dashboards, the agents, the workflows that move the needle.

Stop paying for dozens of bespoke SaaS subscriptions that each hold a fragment of your picture. MARS consolidates everything into one system shaped to your business. hands-off sales automation, compliance reporting, client name resolution, vendor billing reconciliation, and operational workflows that run themselves. This is the tip of the spear.

How MARS handles your data

Structured. Unstructured. Most clients need both.

Every business has data that lives in rows and data that lives in documents. MARS handles both, with a different approach for each. Where we start depends on what's hurting most.

Structured · The Warehouse

Build the Warehouse

Aggregate · Normalise · Visualise · Automate

Your fragmented business systems pulled into a purpose-built data warehouse. Automated pipelines, normalised schemas, real-time dashboards, AI anomaly detection on top. The single source of truth your finance, ops and exec team can stop arguing over.

✓Automated API connectors to every system
✓Normalised data models with audit trails
✓Real-time dashboards and KPI tracking
✓AI anomaly detection and forecasting

Both feed
MARS

Unstructured · The Data Lake

Scaffold the Data Lake

Connect · Query · Converse · Automate

Intelligent scaffolding around the data that doesn't fit a spreadsheet. M365, SharePoint, Azure, email, proprietary stores. with AI agents, Copilot, and custom chat interfaces secured by enterprise IAM. Ask a question, get the answer. without reading the document.

✓Microsoft Copilot with enterprise IAM
✓Custom AI agents via AWS Bedrock (Claude)
✓RAG pipelines over document stores
✓Workflow automation triggered by AI

Numbers can't answer "why". The warehouse tells you revenue is down 8%. It can't tell you that a key client is unhappy because of an issue raised in last week's meeting transcript.

Documents can't answer "what's the trend". The data lake surfaces every email about a delivery issue. It can't tell you whether complaints are climbing month on month, or which clients are most affected.

Together, you get both. Most real decisions need numbers AND context. The warehouse explains the score. The data lake explains the game. That's why most clients eventually deploy both.

Why MARS makes the difference

A cyber, GRC and infrastructure firm — that builds AI systems.

Doing AI the right way takes more than the AI. It takes the depth that only comes from years of running real infrastructure under real compliance pressure. Twenty years operating an ISO 27001 certified information security practice, with a pen test and vCISO bench. That foundation is what lets AI sit on top without breaking the posture underneath. Most AI shops bolt security on at the end. We can't — the practice came first. and the difference is visible the moment something hits production.

Risk area
Without a GRC-native AI approach
With MARS

Data sovereignty

Prompts and data routed offshore. Vendor TOS changes quietly. No way to attest residency.

100% Australian-hosted. AU-region inference. Residency you can attest to, in writing.

Access & identity

Shared API keys. Staff pasting sensitive data into public LLMs. No audit trail.

Per-user IAM, role-scoped access, 2FA enforced. Every prompt and output logged, timestamped, attributable.

Copilot rollout

Enabled broadly. Now it can see everything it shouldn't. Purview becomes a fire drill.

Scoped to role, source and purpose. Reviewed quarterly. Kill switch global or per-user.

Threat detection & assurance

Vendor self-attestation. SOC2 reports you've never read. AI pilot stalls because security can't sign off.

24/7 anomaly alerting. Independent pen tests pre-launch and annually. Encryption at rest and in transit.

Vendors & ownership

Cyber, compliance and AI owned by three vendors who don't talk. You hold the bag in the middle.

One operator. One posture. One person you call. A system shaped to how your business actually runs.

A note from our CEO

“AI is genuinely exciting — it's energised the entire team. Suddenly we can solve business pain points in ways that weren't possible a year ago. Book a free discovery session. It might be the most impactful conversation you have all year.”

— Alex Macklin, CEO, InterIntra

Limited onboarding capacity. Q2 2026 filling fast

AI has arrived. The only question is who you partner with.

We onboard a small number of MARS clients each quarter. every engagement gets the same hands-on, ISO 27001-certified attention. If your AI roadmap matters this year, the conversation starts here.

Agentic AI

AI that takes action. Not just answers.

The next operational layer of your business. Custom agents we build into MARS. bound by IAM, scoped to a single job, and audit-logged from day one.

Three categories of agent

Custom agents that wrap around how you actually work.

Three patterns we see most often. Each one purpose-built into your environment, scoped to a single job, governed from day one. Not a productised template.

Workflow agents

Kill the inbox bottleneck

Triage, route, escalate, follow up. Workflow agents handle the steps a human shouldn't be doing. intake of incoming work, routing to the right queue, chasing approvals, escalating when SLAs slip. They don't replace decisions. They eliminate the wait between them.

Intake & triage Routing Escalation Follow-up

Knowledge agents

Stop the document graveyard

Research, retrieve, summarise, draft. Knowledge agents read the documents your team can't keep up with. contracts, policies, SOPs, RFPs, archived email threads. and answer plain-language questions or produce a first-pass draft. The hours you save are the hours you stop dreading the document.

Document Q&A Summarisation First-pass drafts Policy retrieval

Operational agents

This shouldn't need a human

Recurring processes run end-to-end. Licence reconciliation, billing prep, compliance reporting, vendor onboarding, monthly reviews. Operational agents take the repetitive jobs that quietly absorb a third of your team's week and run them in the background. with the audit trail your auditor wants.

End-to-end automation Reconciliation Compliance reporting Audit trail

Built on platforms you already trust

Native to your tools. Bound by your governance.

No new apps, no parallel login, no adoption curve. Agents live where your team already works. on Microsoft 365, in Teams, or behind a custom interface. and inherit the security posture your business already runs on.

Lives where your team works

Microsoft Teams, M365, SharePoint, or a custom interface where it fits better. No new tab to remember. Conversation in, action out.

Enterprise security by default

Entra ID, role-scoped IAM, prompt and output logging, AU-hosted inference, kill switch. The governance posture your auditor and your CISO want, baked in from the first deployment.

Configured to your business

Each agent grounded in your data, documents, policies and workflows. not a generic template. We model the boundaries before we model the prompts. They know your business from day one.

Custom agents are scoped during MARS discovery

A real agent solves a real job. Tell us what's hurting.

We don't sell agent suites. We scope a single high-value job, build the agent into your environment, and govern it from day one. Whether it's the inbox, the documents, or the recurring work that's quietly killing your team's week. let's find the right first one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We have answers.

What is MARS and how does it work? +

MARS (Multiple Application Rendering Surface) is InterIntra's proprietary platform that consolidates fragmented business data from across your organisation. finance, HR, tickets, licensing, CRM. into a single unified system. On top of this data layer, we deploy AI automation, decision intelligence dashboards, and custom AI agents. The result is a single platform you own, rather than dozens of SaaS subscriptions each holding a fragment of your picture.

Is my business data stored in Australia? +

Yes. all data is stored 100% in Australia. Our primary infrastructure runs on AWS Melbourne with disaster recovery in Sydney. We never route your data through international servers. This is a core design principle of MARS, ensuring full data sovereignty compliance for Australian regulatory requirements.

What AI tools and platforms do you work with? +

We're an Anthropic Partner, an AWS Partner, and a Microsoft Partner. so we build on Claude (via AWS Bedrock, AU-region inference), the Microsoft Copilot stack (Teams, M365, Power Platform), and custom agent frameworks where they fit better. The MARS framework is modular. we choose the right AI capability for the right job rather than locking you into a single vendor. Every agent we build is custom-scoped, IAM-bound, and audit-logged.

How is security handled in MARS deployments? +

Security is built into the framework rather than bolted on at the end. Per-user IAM and role-scoped access by default. Every prompt and AI output logged, timestamped, attributable. Encryption at rest and in transit. AU-hosted with residency you can attest to in writing. Independent pen tests pre-launch and annually. And because we're an ISO 27001 certified information security firm in our own right, the posture you inherit is the posture we live inside every day.

What does a MARS engagement typically cost? +

Pricing depends on the shape of the engagement. Discovery work is typically fixed-fee and short. Build engagements are scoped against agreed milestones, with no mid-project budget surprises. Ongoing run and evolve work is delivered as block-of-hours, monthly retainer, or project-based. Every conversation starts with a free discovery call so we can size the work properly. no obligation, no surprises.
