What we'd find about my business

Your office, run for you. And the business you want to build.

We run the office side of your business on AI, from your business written down, with a person who answers: work won, enquiries answered the same day, jobs confirmed in writing, invoices right first time, money in.

What we'd find about my business What eats your week

For owner-run businesses of any kind: trades and services, shops, firms that win work by tender, by referral, or by what people find online. If your office lives in email, WhatsApp and spreadsheets, this is for you. Our first clients are family businesses.

Not technical? Neither are the owners we work with: you touch your sheet and your room, and we do the rest.

The picture: four unanswered things move themselves into done, your way, while the clock runs back from 21:40 to 18:00, ending on one message: 2 need your yes.

What eats your week, and what we do about it.

These six are a moving company's; yours will be different: a tender-led firm's week is eaten by bids and compliance, a shop's by stock and reviews, a digital-first firm's by what customers find before they ever call. What we find about your business names yours.

  1. Enquiries

    A form, a WhatsApp and an email about one move, all at once.

    One job, and one quote drafted the same day.

  2. Confirmations

    A customer who thinks it is booked, and a carrier who never said yes.

    The carrier's written yes, landing on the job.

  3. The day pack

    A crew with half the instructions.

    One pack: times, access, contacts.

  4. Invoices

    An invoice with two deposits on it.

    Corrected first time.

  5. Money

    Money owed, and nobody chasing.

    Chased on your rhythm, matched when paid.

  6. Reviews and claims

    A complaint, and no record of what happened.

    The custody trail: every hand-over on record.

The picture: the six cards light up one at a time as handled, while Saturday's move fills its job file line by line, ending on one thing that needs your yes: sending the quote.

One conversation. Work carried through.

You talk in the room the way you would to someone in your office. The assistant reads, drafts, checks and asks you only what only you know, while the job's file fills in beside it.

Every line shows where it came from.

The picture: your voice note in the room; the assistant's reply, and the job's file growing beside it, until it waits for your yes.

Your existing systems stay part of the business. The room is where you and the assistant talk; your email, job system and WhatsApp stay where they are.

What it stands on.

Five things under everything we do. Each one is a problem owners have met with AI, and what we built instead.

  1. Context

    It does not know your business.

    Your business written down, and yours.

  2. Skills

    Every assistant starts from zero.

    What it knows how to do in your trade, better with every business it runs.

  3. Your room

    Nobody sees what ran.

    One room, one list of what needs your yes, the numbers you chose.

  4. The people

    It works in week one and breaks by month four.

    A person who answers, a person who goes in, and the always-ask line it never crosses.

  5. The numbers

    Nobody can tell whether it worked.

    Numbers you chose, read from your own systems, never from our report.

The picture: this morning's message assembles line by line, one line from each foundation, and is sent to you.

It runs on the best AI available each year. Nothing of yours is tied to a tool, or to us.

Hear from it your way.

What to watch, how often and where. We start from how you already work, you confirm with a tap, and it keeps learning from your replies.

WhereWherever you already answer fastest.
What to watchNone, one or several numbers, from your own systems.
How oftenOnly when something needs you, until you say otherwise.

Change any of it by telling the assistant, in plain words. A message you keep ignoring, or a reply that says “shorter”, changes it too, and it tells you what changed.

The picture: the same morning, shown the way you choose.

Then, if you want more: your business, written down, and someone comes in.

If what we found is useful, the next step is the sheet you correct with a tap: what matters, how work really happens and what better looks like, every line with its source. Then one of us sits with you at your desk, for as long as your firm needs, and walks your business with you.

  1. 1We read what is public, then your email, read-only.
  2. 2You tap Right, or Fix and say what is true.
  3. 3Then someone comes in, and the sheet updates while they are with you.

Example

What matters

Moving homes and offices without a hitch, and being paid without chasing.

From your website's About page

How work really happens

Enquiries arrive by the website form and WhatsApp; quotes go out by email.

Your website and public listings

The carrying is subcontracted, so a move is only real when the carrier has said yes in writing.

Our reading; please correctConfirmed at your desk, on a real job

What better looks like

Every move confirmed in writing before the day, and invoices right first time.

Start of dayEnd of day

Half a day to three days, by the size of the firm. We read everything before and after. You end with every leak ranked and priced, and a first step.

The picture: the owner's sheet filling line by line, then the visit, with one of us at the owner's desk while the sheet updates beside them.

Under an hour to start. Then we come in.

Four steps, in one sitting or over a few days: usually under an hour of your time, less for a small firm. Everything else is ours to do.

  1. 1

    Connect your email

    A few minutes

    One click in your own Google or Microsoft account, read-only.

    We work out where quotes, bookings, carriers and invoices really live.

  2. 2

    Your sheet, then the visit

    Your sheet in minutes; the visit sized to your firm

    Tap Right or Fix on your sheet, or send a voice note. Then someone sits with you and walks a real job. Then a short page: the first step we propose, and the two ways to work with us.

    We read everything before and after, and update your sheet while the visit is on.

  3. 3

    Join the room

    A few minutes

    Install Slack and accept the invite.

    We have the assistant already waiting in your channel.

  4. 4

    Go live

    At your rhythm

    Reply to anything marked “needs you”, when it suits you.

    We run the office routines, reading first, then acting within what you chose.

What we never ask for: passwords, forms, meetings, lists of your tools, or anything we can find out for ourselves.

Two ways we work together, at equal strength.

The service: the audit, the set-up and ongoing management, for a plain fee quoted after your sheet, with the audit fee credited against the set-up; or ownership first: the gains deal, convertible to a stake, where it fits. Either way your file is yours and leaving is easy.

Your sheetYour business, as we see it

The service

  1. AuditYour business written down, with your systems connected
  2. Set-upYour first routine live, read-first, your yes on every send
  3. Ongoing managementYour office run, with a person who answers

A plain fee, quoted after your sheet. The audit fee is credited against the set-up.

Ownership first

  1. The gains dealOur costs covered, then a share of the gains we create
  2. The gains, countedMeasured from your own records, and shown to you
  3. A stakeThe share converts into a stake in the business, where it fits

Offered where it fits your business.

Either way, your file is yours, and leaving is easy.

Either way we are judged by the numbers you chose, read from your own records.

There are no prices on this page yet. And once the office runs, we help build what is missing and create what comes next, whatever your office needs after that.

Yours, whatever happens next.

  1. Your file is yours.Plain words, in your own folder, to keep.
  2. Your systems stay.We work inside the email, job system and WhatsApp you already use.
  3. Any assistant can run it.If you leave us, the same file works with the next one.
  4. Nothing crosses your line without your yes.Paying, sending, signing and deleting always wait for you.

The picture: your file and systems stay inside your line while our assistant steps away and another takes its place.

Questions you would ask on the call anyway.

Answered plainly. For anything else, write to [email protected].

Is our business too small, or too different?

No. The smallest firm we would work with is one person and a phone. What we find about your business names your own levers, whether they are tenders, referrals, reviews, or an inbox; the work goes where your lever is.

Can we keep our systems?

Yes. We work inside the email, job system, spreadsheets and WhatsApp you already use. Nothing moves into a new app, and nothing about your business lives anywhere but your own file and your own systems.

Who sees our data?

You, the people you choose, and the assistant doing the work. We start from your email, read-only, through your own Google or Microsoft account. We never ask for passwords, and we keep facts about the work, never stories about people.

What if it is wrong?

Every line shows where it came from, and it asks you whatever only you know. Anything that pays, sends, signs or deletes waits for your yes. When it gets something wrong, a person answers, and the correction goes into your file so it stays fixed.

What does it cost?

Two ways, from the same sheet. The service: the audit, the set-up and ongoing management, for a plain fee quoted after your sheet, with the audit fee credited against the set-up. Or ownership first: the gains deal, a share of the gains we create, convertible to a stake where it fits. There are no prices on this page yet. What we find from your website address costs nothing.

What about our staff?

They keep the work only people can do, and the decisions. The assistant takes the chasing and the paperwork, shows what it did, and never messages your customers or your people without the yes you decided on.

How fast?

What we found about your business reaches you within a day of giving us your website, for a small firm. If you want more, the sheet and the visit follow; the visit takes half a day to three days, by the size of the firm, and fits around your normal day. After that it runs at the rhythm you choose, and you change that just by saying so.

What we found about your business.

Give us your website address and where to send it. Within a day for a small firm, you get what we found from public sources, with zero questions, as short or as long as it needs to be:

  • How customers find you and what an AI assistant says about you

    Search, maps and reviews, and what the main AI assistants answer when someone asks about you.

  • Your competitors and the gaps

    Who else serves your area, what they offer that you do not, and where they are weak.

  • Your office seen from outside

    How enquiries arrive, whether they land in one place, and where a reply has nothing behind it.

  • Promise against experience

    What your website promises, line by line, against what reviews say actually happens.

  • The moves we would make and the numbers we would watch

    Concrete moves from what we found, each with the measure that would show it working.

From public sources only. We ask you nothing first, and nothing in it needs your permission.

No form, no password, nothing to sign in to. If what we found is useful, we meet once, in person or on a call.
