I find the manual work quietly draining your margin, and replace it with automation that pays for itself.
Most companies do not have a technology problem, they have a repetition problem. Quotes retyped into three systems, invoices reconciled by hand, reports rebuilt every Monday. I map where those hours go, put a number on them, and build the automation that gives them back — commonly reaching six figures of annual saving.
Deliverables
- A costed map of every manual process, ranked by what it is worth to remove
- Automation running in your existing tools rather than a new platform to learn
- Documents, emails and data entry handled without a person in the loop
- Reporting that builds itself instead of consuming a morning each week
- A measurable before-and-after, so the saving is proven and not claimed
Where the savings come from
A typical mid-sized operation loses close to a full working day per employee per week to work that software should be doing.

What I automate, by area
Sales
Lead enrichment, quote generation from a call transcript, CRM updated without anyone typing.
Finance
Invoice extraction, three-way matching, payment chasing and month-end reconciliation.
Customer support
Drafted replies from your own knowledge base, routing by intent, escalation when confidence drops.
Operations
Order intake from email or PDF, stock alerts, supplier follow-up and scheduling.
HR and onboarding
CV screening against real requirements, contract generation, access provisioning checklists.
Reporting
Dashboards and weekly summaries assembled from your systems, delivered before the meeting.
Start with the free audit
I map your current processes, quantify the cost of each manual step, and give you a prioritised automation roadmap. You keep the roadmap whether or not we work together.
From first call to launch
Step 1
Audit
I sit with the people doing the repetitive work and record what actually happens, not what the process document says.
Step 2
Quantify
Every manual step gets hours and a cost attached. This is what turns a vague inefficiency into a business case.
Step 3
Build
Automation built into your existing tools, starting with the highest return so the project funds itself early.
Step 4
Measure and expand
We compare against the baseline, prove the saving, then move to the next item on the roadmap.
Pick the scope that fits
Process Audit
Typical timeline: 1 week
I map your workflows, quantify the cost of each manual step and hand you a prioritised roadmap. Yours to keep either way.
- Interviews with the people doing the work
- Process map with hours and cost per step
- Automation opportunities ranked by return
- Written roadmap with effort estimates
- No obligation to continue
Automation Sprint
Typical timeline: 3 - 4 weeks
We take the highest-value item from the roadmap and put it live, measured against the baseline we recorded.
- One high-impact workflow fully automated
- Integrated with your current tools
- AI document and email processing where it fits
- Error handling and human escalation path
- Team training and written runbook
- Before-and-after measurement
Automation Partner
Typical timeline: Rolling monthly
Ongoing capacity to work down the roadmap, maintain what is live and adapt as the business changes.
- Continuous delivery from the roadmap
- Monitoring and maintenance of live automations
- Monthly savings report
- Priority response on failures
- Quarterly re-audit as processes evolve
- Cancel any month
Questions before we start
Is the audit really free?
Yes, and the roadmap is yours whether or not you hire me. It is the fastest way for both of us to find out if there is enough value here to justify a project.
How can you claim savings of that size?
It is arithmetic, not optimism. A team of fifteen losing six hours each per week to manual work is over four thousand hours a year. Automating even part of that reaches six figures in most European salary bands — and I show you the calculation with your own numbers before you commit.
Will this replace my team?
That is not what I am selling. I automate the work people dislike and are worst at — copying data, chasing documents, rebuilding the same report. Their hours move to the work that needs judgement.
Do we have to change our software?
Almost never. I automate around what you already use. Replacing core systems is a much bigger project and rarely the cheapest way to get the hours back.
What about our data and compliance?
Data handling is agreed before anything is built. Where a process is sensitive, it can run against models hosted in the EU or on your own infrastructure, and every automated decision leaves an audit trail.
