IT consultancy.
AI-assisted products.
Global X Technology is a five-person crew that runs SMB networks, M365 tenants, and the unglamorous infrastructure work that keeps businesses online — and ships AI-assisted ops tools on the side.
What we run.
Hands-on IT engineering. No tiered support tickets — you work with the engineer doing the work.
Microsoft 365 administration
Tenant builds, migrations, license cleanup, Exchange / SharePoint / Teams / Intune. We take over tenants in bad shape and make them boring again.
Network design & rebuilds
Layer 1 through 3. Switching, VLANs, firewall rules, segmentation, site-to-site VPN. We document what we deploy — you get a real diagram, not a screenshot.
Security hardening
MFA roll-outs, conditional access, endpoint protection, email security, identity audits. We don't sell you a SOC — we close the doors you already have open.
AI workflow automation
Custom AI agents wired into your real ops — ticket triage, document review, report generation, internal Q&A over your own data. Pragmatic, not science-project.
24/7 emergency support
Ransomware, outage, "the entire office can't log in" — we have a discreet emergency engagement for when the lights are out and the meter is running.
Fractional IT leadership
For SMBs that need a CTO-level voice in the room one day a week without the headcount. Architecture decisions, vendor calls, budget defense.
What we ship.
Tools that came out of consulting work. We use them on real client stacks before selling them.

We work for SMBs — usually 5 to 200 seats — and the occasional larger client on a specific engagement. We don't have a sales team. The person who quotes the work is the person doing the work.
