Nexos, the AI and software division of San Diego’s Abrams & Luchanski, advises on and builds AI agents, private language models, custom software and the links between business systems for Georgia companies. Every Georgia engagement is remote, with workshops, reviews and training over video in the Eastern Time afternoon. Each build is scoped against the Georgia and federal rules itemised further down this page, and your counsel confirms which of them apply.
The Georgia Ports Authority calls Savannah the busiest gateway for containerized trade on the South Atlantic and Gulf Coasts: 5.67 million twenty-foot equivalent units crossed its docks in fiscal 2026. A University of Georgia Terry College of Business study, published by the Authority in September 2026, puts the statewide reach of port activity at $181 billion in annual sales and 605,616 full- and part-time jobs in fiscal 2025, counting port customers, their suppliers and the businesses their payrolls support. Every one of those boxes generates paperwork downstream: bookings, customs entries, delivery orders, dock appointments and freight bills, much of it still passed between companies by email and PDF.
Inland, the Census Bureau counted 261,320 employer establishments in 2023, employing 4,405,730 people, a workforce that grew 3.7% on the year before, and another 1,163,944 owner-run businesses with no payroll at all. The same tables show $55.7 billion in transportation and warehousing receipts and $95.1 billion in health care and social assistance receipts for 2022, two sectors in which administrative work scales with volume rather than with headcount.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics puts the Atlanta metropolitan area at 3.11 million nonfarm jobs in August 2026 (preliminary), roughly five of every eight in a state total of 4.99 million. Professional and business services employ 741,200 people statewide and education and health services 750,700, and trade, transportation and utilities just over a million. That mix — corporate back offices, logistics operators and health care providers — is where document-heavy, rules-heavy work concentrates.
Nothing below describes past Georgia work — Nexos has none to describe. It is our reading of where the state’s port, logistics, health care and services economy leaves the most manual effort on the table, matched to the service that addresses it.
Forwarders, customs brokers and drayage carriers working the Savannah flow re-key the same container numbers, commodity lines and appointment times from one PDF into three systems. An extraction-and-routing pipeline reads each arrival notice or commercial invoice, fills the booking and billing records, and parks anything that fails a check in a queue for a coordinator to clear.
Where a distribution center reconciles its warehouse and transport systems in a spreadsheet each morning, a small data platform joins them overnight, so supervisors see dwell times, detention exposure and pick rates before the first shift instead of after the week closes.
Practices and hospital revenue-cycle staff spend hours assembling clinical notes into authorization and appeal packets. An agent that gathers the right documents, drafts the submission and flags missing items speeds that up, while a named staff member approves every packet. Because it reads patient records, it is built only after the business associate question in the rules below is settled with the practice. The design choice mirrors, on the provider side, the principle S.B. 444 applies to insurers’ utilization reviewers from January 2027: software can assist, but it doesn’t make the final call.
Lenders, tax preparers and clinics hold exactly the data the FTC Safeguards Rule and HIPAA are written around. A dedicated, privately hosted language model lets staff summarize files and draft correspondence without sending those records to a shared public chatbot. A clinic that is a HIPAA covered entity needs a business associate agreement with anyone who hosts or builds on its patient records, as the rules section below explains; who that is, and on what terms, is agreed with the clinic and its counsel before any record is touched.
With over a million Georgia businesses operating without payroll, many of the next hires will land in companies still run from an inbox and a notes app. Choosing, configuring and connecting an off-the-shelf CRM, scheduling and accounting stack is usually a better first step than anything custom, and we will say so.
Each item below was checked against an official source: two older state statutes on breaches and discarded records, a new limit on AI in insurance utilization review, and the federal sector rules for finance and health data. One name buyers may have seen is missing on purpose. S.B. 111 was introduced in 2025 as the Georgia Consumer Privacy Protection Act, but a House substitute replaced its text, and the version signed in May 2026 as Act 462 only revises the rural-hospital tax credit in O.C.G.A. § 31-8-9.1.
The 2005 act reached only information brokers — businesses that compile personal information for a fee to furnish it to unaffiliated third parties; the 2007 amendment added state and local agencies, and both must tell affected Georgia residents about a breach of unencrypted names paired with Social Security, driver’s license, account or card numbers, or passwords without unreasonable delay. A company maintaining that data on a broker’s or agency’s behalf must alert its client within 24 hours of discovering a breach. A breach reaching more than 10,000 residents must also be reported to the nationwide consumer reporting agencies.
A business may not discard a customer record holding personal information — Social Security, passport or driver’s license numbers, dates of birth, medical data and similar identifiers — unless it first shreds it, erases that information or makes it unreadable. The statute defines a record to include electromagnetic material, so the scans, exports and staging copies an automation pipeline creates need a deletion step too. As enacted, fines ran up to $500 per record, capped at $10,000.
Private review agents and utilization review entities may use AI and other software to automate tasks and take part in coverage decisions, provided the tools sit inside a utilization review plan that meets the chapter and the Insurance Commissioner’s rules. No adverse determination may be issued to a patient until a qualified person conducts a review in which a clinical peer participates, and the software may never supersede that peer’s judgment.
Non-bank financial institutions under FTC jurisdiction — mortgage brokers and lenders, finance companies, collection agencies, tax preparers, financial advisers and others — must keep a written information security program. From May 2024 they must also notify the FTC no later than 30 days after discovering unauthorized acquisition of unencrypted information about at least 500 consumers.
Health plans, clearinghouses and providers that conduct certain transactions electronically must safeguard protected health information, may use or disclose it without authorization only within set limits, and must honor patients’ rights to copies and corrections. Any tool that reads charts, claims or intake forms for such an organization has to be built inside those limits. A developer or host that creates, receives or maintains PHI for a covered entity is a business associate: the covered entity must have a business associate agreement with it, and it is bound by the HIPAA Security Rule (45 CFR Part 164, Subpart C).

Discovery for a Georgia project follows the documents rather than the org chart. For a Savannah forwarder that means sitting, on a shared screen, with the coordinator who pulls arrival notices and entry paperwork out of carrier and customs-broker portals, and noting every field that gets re-keyed somewhere else; for a clinic it means working from de-identified samples and the EHR vendor’s export formats, because live patient charts should not be passed around a video call. The written scope that follows carries a fixed price and a date for the first working version, which you review on screen before anything reaches production.
All of Georgia sits in the Eastern zone, three hours ahead of our San Diego clock. If both sides keep a nine-to-five day, the shared window runs from noon to 5 p.m. Eastern — 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in San Diego — so workshops and reviews land after lunch in Atlanta or Savannah, and your mornings stay free for operations. Training for shift-based warehouse or clinic staff is recorded as well as delivered live.
Remote: discovery, reviews and training over video, with shared documents and working software in between. Eastern Time statewide, three hours ahead of our San Diego (Pacific) clock.

Aidan Luchans founded Abrams & Luchanski in San Diego in 2024, and designed and built the Nexos Platform, a multi-tenant AI operations platform: AI agents, multi-step workflows with human approval, connections to roughly 90 business tools, and private knowledge search.
Aidan leads both the firm’s advisory work and Nexos’s engineering, so the person who scopes a project also builds it.
A warehouse on the I-16 run down to the port, a mill in Dalton and a clinic group in Valdosta reach us by the same video link, with each scope written around their systems rather than their postcode.
Yes, remotely. Nexos can build an Atlanta company its AI agents, custom software, a private language model or the links between the systems it already runs. The work is done from San Diego over video, with workshops in the Eastern afternoon. Builds start from $4,900 and the technology audit is free.
The Technology audit — the consulting step that maps what is worth building — is free for a Georgia company. Fixed-scope builds start from $4,900, and a hosted private model runs from $890 per month, the same rates we quote in every other state. What moves an agent’s price is mostly how many systems it has to connect to and how many exception paths it must handle; the audit sizes both, and you get a fixed price in writing before any build starts.
No. Nexos is the AI and software division of Abrams & Luchanski in San Diego; it has no Georgia office or staff and works with Georgia companies entirely over video, on Eastern afternoon hours. Abrams & Luchanski opened in San Diego in 2024, and its founder designed and built the Nexos Platform, with AI agents, approval workflows, private knowledge search and connections to roughly 90 business tools.
Yes, if the vendor offers a sanctioned route: an API, a scheduled export, an EDI feed or the documents it already emails you. Discovery confirms which of those your contract allows, and where none exists the automation reads the same PDFs your coordinators read today rather than scraping a portal the vendor forbids.
Usually the document flow around each shipment: arrival notices, delivery orders, proof of delivery and freight invoices that someone re-types today. It is repetitive, easy to measure, and a person can still approve every exception while the system learns.
A short description is plenty. We reply within one business day.
Nexos works alongside Abrams & Luchanski consultants so technical solutions are designed around the business — not the other way around.
