ABOUT US

With a collective 60+ years of experience staying on top of technology trends and building data and analytics solutions for Fortune 500 companies, we’ve learned that technology alone isn’t enough. We founded HQ to harness the true potential of AI—not to replace people, but to empower them. By simplifying tasks and sparking creativity, we help teams work smarter, not harder.
