North Roots

Start small. Know the price before we build.

Four steps, and nothing is booked beyond the one you're on.

  1. Step 1

    Intro call

    Free.

    You tell us which process costs the most time. You leave knowing whether automation is likely to pay for itself, and what the audit would cost.

  2. Step 2

    Audit

    Fixed fee.

    We follow the work through your business, workarounds included, then design the fix and price it.

    • A written report on how the work gets done today
    • Where AI will help, and where a process change is the better fix
    • A design for the fix, signed off by you
    • A fixed price for the build
  3. Step 3

    Build

    Fixed price, agreed in writing. Timeline set in the audit.

    We build what the audit agreed, inside the systems you already run, and train your team before we leave. Extras are priced before we touch them.

    • AI assistants, automated tasks and reports
    • Connected to your CRM, email, accounts and job systems
    • Tested on your real data before launch
    • Controls on who can see what, and a record of every action
  4. Step 4

    Support

    Monthly, optional.

    Models get updated and your data changes. Support keeps it working, for a fixed monthly fee you know before you start.

    • Monitoring, and fixes when something breaks
    • Improvements as your processes change
    • Model upgrades when better ones arrive

What people ask first.

How much does it cost?
We tell you the audit fee on the first call, before you commit to anything. The build is priced at the end of the audit, and anything outside that scope gets its own price before we touch it. Support is a fixed monthly fee you can decline.
What if AI isn't the answer?
Then the report says so and the work ends with the audit. Often the fix is a better process, or a feature of a system you already pay for.
Will it work with the tools we already use?
Usually. If one of yours can't be connected, the audit finds that out before you've spent anything on a build. We only replace a system when nothing you have can do the job.
What happens to our data?
We touch only the systems and data the job needs, with controls on who sees what and a record of every action. Where your data lives depends on the systems involved, so the audit sets that out, along with how it's handled under UK GDPR.
How long does it take?
It depends on what the audit finds. The timeline is agreed in writing at the same time as the price.
You're two people. What if one of you is unavailable?
Both of us know every project, and every build ends with a written handover your team keeps.
What is Roots?
Our service for firms whose staff already use Claude or ChatGPT. It connects that AI to your accounts, job system, CRM and documents, and it starts with a pilot on two of your systems. There's a page on it.
We already have developers. Can you work with them?
Yes. One of us can join your team for agreed hours each month: technical lead, code reviews, upskilling.
