AI & process automation

Let AI do the busywork

We look at how your business runs today: emails, bookings, quotes, invoices, spreadsheets. Then we show you which jobs a computer can take over. You get a short, plain-English list of ideas, with what each costs and what it saves.

Pricing: the ideas session is free. Projects get a fixed quote before any work starts, so you know the cost and the expected savings up front.

Data migration

Moving from old software, a dusty office server or a pile of spreadsheets? We move your data to modern tools such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, a new CRM or the cloud, check that nothing is lost, and train your team.

Why these prices are possible

We use AI for everything we can, and people for everything that matters

AI does the repetitive work

First drafts of pages, layouts, text suggestions, testing and paperwork take minutes instead of days. That's where most agency hours, and costs, normally go.

A senior developer does the rest

Every site and automation is reviewed, tested on real phones, checked for security and launched by an experienced engineer. Nothing goes live unchecked.

What's not included

We like to be clear up front so there are no surprises:

Domain names (about $15–30 a year, registered in your name)
Paid cloud services or third-party software subscriptions, which are billed at cost if you need them
Online stores, logins, bookings and other dynamic features. These go beyond a static site and are quoted separately
Writing all your text or professional photography. We'll help with AI drafts, and you approve them

Simple services. Clear prices.
