Gareth Randle
Co-founder and CEO. Strategy and AI.
Finds the work worth automating.
Your team is doing work your systems should be doing.
We find the repetitive jobs your software could be doing, and set it up to do them. A free call, then an audit that ends in a report and a price you can hold us to.

Where the hours go.
The jobs below are the ones your job system, accounts package and inbox could be doing without anyone's help.
If what you want is a new app built from scratch, we're not the right people.
Quotes built in a spreadsheet only one person really understands.
A quoting tool does the arithmetic.
Customer questions with the same answers, typed out fresh every time.
An assistant drafts the reply. A person signs it off.
The same details typed into one system, then typed again into the next.
The systems pass details to each other.
Reports that take someone a full day to pull together.
Reports that build themselves.
Enquiries that go cold because nobody followed up in time.
Every enquiry logged and answered in time.
First we find the problem. Then a fixed price to fix it.
Most AI projects start with a build. Ours start with an audit, so you know what you're buying before you buy it.
- We sit with your team and map how the work actually gets done, workarounds included.
- You get a written report: where the hours go, what to fix and what fixing it will cost. If the honest answer is no AI at all, it says so.
- We tell you the audit fee on the first call, before you commit to anything.
Work we've done.
- Before
- Quotes, commission and the accounting numbers were worked out by hand in Excel.
- Now
- A quoting tool does the number crunching, commission and accountancy on its own. Quotes go out quicker and deals close sooner.
Press Intelligence
Our own build. News monitoring.
- The job
- Keep a business across every mention of it and every story about its market.
- Now
- An automation scans the news and writes up newsletters and press dossiers from what it finds.
