Services

What I actually do, in plain English.

I design, build, support, and advise on AI workflow automation for UK small and medium businesses. This page explains how the engagement works and which of the three services (if any) fits your situation.

01 · Build

End-to-end AI workflow systems.

For UK small and medium businesses that need an AI workflow built, deployed, and handed over so the team can run it. Scoped and fixed-price. You own the system, the code, the data, and the roadmap.

Project-based · scoped and fixed-price

What it looks like

I design, build, deploy, and hand over a production system in roughly six to eight weeks. Scope, price, and timeline are agreed up front, then I ship. You own what you get, code, data, documentation, roadmap, all of it.

What you get

  • A working production system, live before the engagement ends
  • Full ownership: source code, data, documentation, and roadmap
  • Training for your team, so the system actually gets used after handover
  • Thirty days of post-launch support
  • No platform lock-in, no recurring fees to me

Examples

  • An enquiry handler that runs across web chat and WhatsApp, 24/7
  • A voice agent that catches out-of-hours booking calls
  • A listing scraper and matcher for an estate agent
  • A draft-and-review content engine for a niche publisher
  • An internal dashboard for a trades business, summarising jobs and quotes each morning
  • A lead-generation pipeline for a service business, with daily prospect lists
02 · Advise

AI workflow and automation consulting.

For UK small business owners who want an outside view on whether AI is worth it for their business, and which workflow to automate first. Half-day or day-long audit, fixed scope, fixed price.

Day rate · fixed scope

What it looks like

I sit with you or your team, look at your actual workflows, and produce a written report. What's worth automating, what isn't, what AI can do, what it can't, and what it'll cost.

What you get

  • A prioritised roadmap, ranked by business impact and effort
  • A clear "not yet" on anything that isn't ready to automate
  • Recommended tools and models, with the reasoning in plain English
  • Clear next steps, with or without my ongoing involvement
  • The report is yours either way

Best for

  • UK SMEs who want to know if AI is worth it for their top problem
  • Business owners feeling overwhelmed by AI hype and looking for a practical direction
  • Teams who tried AI tools that didn't deliver, and want to understand why
03 · Enable

Training and operational enablement.

For UK businesses that have AI tools but aren't getting full value from them. Hands-on training, written playbooks, and optional ongoing support, billed monthly with no long-term contract.

Monthly retainer · off when you want

What it looks like

Either I train your team to use the tools well, or I run the AI function on your behalf. You pick. Sometimes both.

What you get

  • Hands-on training for your team, tailored to the tools you actually use
  • Written playbooks and documentation, kept up to date
  • An optional fully-outsourced AI function, managed by me, billed monthly
  • A planned handover once your team is ready to take over
  • A flexible monthly retainer: stop any month, keep everything I've built

Best for

  • Teams that have AI tools but aren't using them fully
  • Owners who'd rather outsource the AI function than build it in-house yet
  • Companies that want a clear runway before hiring dedicated AI staff

What I won't do.

  • Sell you AI you don't need.
  • Lock you into a platform you can't leave.
  • Disappear after delivery.
  • Pretend a chatbot is the answer to every problem.
  • Hide the cost of running what I built.
  • Promise capabilities I haven't tested myself.
