Processes We Automate

If it’s multi-step, runs the same way every time, and passes between people or systems, it can usually be automated. These are the ones that pay back fastest.

Approvals & sign-offs

Requests routed to the right approver, chased automatically, logged, and actioned, with no more spreadsheets or stalled email threads.

Onboarding & offboarding

Staff or client onboarding runs as a checklist that executes itself: accounts created, documents sent, tasks assigned, nothing missed.

Data sync between systems

Keep your CRM, finance, and ops tools in step automatically. The copy-paste-between-systems work disappears.

Scheduled reporting

Reports and dashboards pulled together and distributed on a schedule. Your team reviews and adds insight instead of compiling.

Inbox & ticket routing

Incoming emails, forms, and tickets classified, prioritised, and routed in seconds, with drafts ready for your team to send.

Document & order processing

Invoices, orders, and forms read automatically, validated against your rules, and pushed into the right system. Exceptions flagged for review.

Before Automation vs After Automation

Before Automation

  • Copying information between systems
  • Manual spreadsheet updates
  • Chasing approvals through email
  • Re-entering customer data
  • Missed tasks and human error
  • Staff spending hours on admin

After Automation

  • Systems update automatically
  • Data flows between platforms instantly
  • Approvals happen automatically
  • Customers move through workflows automatically
  • Every action is tracked and logged
  • Staff focus on higher-value work

Most businesses don’t need more software. They need their existing software to work together. Process automation removes the repetitive work that slows your team down and creates a business that scales without increasing administrative overhead.

How It Works

Low risk by design. We map and prove one process before you commit to more.

1

Free process audit

We map your process step by step and put real numbers, in hours and pounds, on what it costs today. You leave with a prioritised list, whether or not you work with us.

2

Fixed-scope build

We rebuild one process as an automated workflow, at a fixed price agreed upfront. You see it running in your own tools before spending a penny more.

3

Run & expand

We monitor and maintain it, then automate the next process once the first has paid back. You own everything we build, with no lock-in to us or any single platform.

Start With One Process for £2,000–£5,000

Most clients begin with a single high-volume process and pay back in 2–3 months. Expand from there.

Your Data, Handled Properly

UK GDPR-compliant by default

We never use your data to train models. Every workflow is built on APIs configured to keep your data out of training pipelines.

Data residency you control

Workflows process data within your own accounts and infrastructure. Your data stays in the UK or your chosen region.

Read-only by default

All integrations are read-only unless you explicitly authorise write access. No surprise changes to your live systems.

Full audit trail

Every automated action is logged with the input, the decision, and the output. Full traceability whenever you need it.

What We Won’t Pretend AI Can Do

We’d rather tell you this upfront than let you find out after paying for a project.

Fix a broken process. Automating a messy, undefined process just makes the mess run faster. Where it helps, we’ll tidy the process first. Where automation isn’t the right answer, we’ll tell you, before you spend money.

Replace judgement. AI is excellent at the repetitive, rule-based steps. It cannot make the nuanced calls that depend on context or commercial judgement. Those stay with your team; automation just clears the path to them.

Handle every edge case. Pattern matching works beautifully on predictable, recurring steps. A one-off case that doesn’t match any historical pattern needs a human. Good automation knows what it doesn’t know and routes those cases on rather than guessing.

Run unattended forever. Tools change, APIs update, your business evolves. Automations need monitoring and occasional maintenance. We build for that from day one rather than pretending it’s “set and forget.”

The goal isn’t to replace your team. It’s to stop your team doing work that doesn’t need a human.

Built by Someone Who Has Shipped and Sold Software

I co-founded AppInstitute and grew it to a 7 figure ARR before it was acquired. Today I build and run live AI products, including SyncStudio and Artikle.ai, on the same stack I would use for your automations. You are not paying me to learn on your project. I have shipped, sold and maintained software businesses, and I build your workflows the same way: to run in production, not to look good in a demo.

Built and exited

Co-founded and scaled AppInstitute to a 7 figure ARR, then sold the business.

Still building

I run live AI products every day on the same tools I will use for you.

Production-first

Every build is made to survive real use, with monitoring and a clean handover.
