04 · AI integration

AI that does the actual work.

Not a chatbot bolted on the side. We build AI into the tools you already use: it reads your documents, works with your systems, and hands anything important to a person to check.

01

Agents that use your tools

Assistants that look things up, check the diary, update records and send the message, instead of just chatting.

↳ Gaffer · 15 tools · 3 AI models
02

Paperwork in, data out

Vision models that read receipts, invoices, recipes and scanned forms, then turn them into clean, structured data.

↳ LittleList · Tabb · document AI built under NDA
03

Voice and vision

Let customers talk to your app, or show it a photo. LittleLogic answers kids' questions out loud in real time.

↳ LittleLogic · talk & photo questions
04

AI inside your workflow

MCP servers that let assistants like Claude read and update your own systems, with important steps waiting for a person to approve.

↳ Cairn · Topographics · 80+ MCP tools
05

Costs you can predict

The right model for each job, with prompts and caching engineered to keep bills small. On one project, caching made the repeated part of every request over 80% cheaper.

FAQ

Good questions.

How much does it cost?+

Every project gets a fixed quote after a free first chat, so you know the price before anything starts. We'll always suggest the smallest version that does the job, and you can grow it from there.

How long does it take?+

A focused website usually takes 2–4 weeks. A first version of an app or custom tool is typically 6–12 weeks. Either way, you'll have a working preview link from the first week.

Do we own what you build?+

Yes. The code, designs, domains, accounts and App Store listings are all in your name. No lock-in, no hostage situations.

Can you add AI to software we already use?+

Usually, yes. Most AI work plugs into what you already have (your website, inbox, spreadsheets or database) rather than replacing it. And if AI isn't worth it for your problem, we'll say so.

Is our data safe with AI?+

We use providers and settings that don't train on your data, keep sensitive information private, and build in a human check anywhere a mistake would matter.

What happens after launch?+

We stick around. We look after hosting, updates and App Store renewals, and most clients keep us on a simple monthly care plan. You're never tied in, though.

Do you only work with local businesses?+

We're UK-based and love meeting in person, but most of the work happens over video calls and a shared preview link, so we can work with you wherever you are.

Not sure which you need?
