Task audit and roadmap
A ranked list of repetitive tasks across your teams, with hours saved and a clear build order.
The Problem
Routine Work Grows Faster Than Your Team Can Hire
It shows up when support, finance, and reporting each lose hours to the same copy-paste work. Every tool promises AI, but none of them talk to each other.
01 · Full inbox
Half your support tickets ask where an order is.
Tickets get sorted and drafted by AI, with plain rules for simple steps.
02 · Retyping
Finance retypes supplier invoices into QuickBooks by hand.
Invoices get read and posted, and a person approves anything risky.
03 · Manual reports
Someone exports last week's sales into a spreadsheet for reports.
Automated reports land in Slack, built on the tools you already pay for.
04 · App sprawl
Each app charges a monthly fee, and none share data.
One partner builds one set of automations across support, finance, and reporting.
Monday morning, and the support inbox is already full. Half the tickets ask where an order is. Finance is retyping supplier invoices into QuickBooks, and someone is exporting last week's sales into a spreadsheet for the weekly report. You've tried a chatbot plugin, an invoice app, and a reporting tool. Each one charges a monthly fee, and none of them share data. The work didn't go away. It just spread across more tabs.
We start by listing the repetitive tasks across your teams and ranking them by hours saved. Then we build AI-assisted workflows that connect the tools you already pay for. Tickets get sorted and drafted, invoices get read and posted, and reports land in Slack. A person approves anything risky. You get one partner and one set of automations instead of a pile of disconnected apps.
AI where it saves time
AI reads, sorts, and drafts, while plain rules handle the steps that need no judgment.
A person approves risky steps
Refunds, payments, and low-confidence replies wait for someone on your team to approve them.
One partner across teams
Support, finance, and reporting automations share one plan, one log, and one point of contact.
Our AI Automation Process
From Task Audit to Monitored Automations in Five Steps
You see which tasks we'll automate, how each AI step is checked, and what it costs before we build. Every step ends with something you review.
We interview your support, finance, and ops leads and list the tasks that eat their week. You get a ranked shortlist with hours saved, a recommended first automation, and a fixed quote. If a plain workflow without AI covers it, we'll tell you before we quote.
What's Included
What You Get With Our AI Automation Agency Services
Every engagement covers the task audit, AI-assisted workflows, human review rules, accuracy testing, monitoring, and handover. Larger plans add more automations and a roadmap.

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from teams we have built stores, websites, and integrations for.
We had a different kind of problem. People were visiting the store, adding products to their carts, and then disappearing before they finished the order. We had tried a few apps and made changes here and there, but nothing really seemed to solve the bigger issue. The team went through the shopping experience with us and pointed out things we hadn't really noticed ourselves. They cleaned up the cart and checkout flow, made the mobile experience much smoother, and helped us make the store feel easier to shop. I’m not going to pretend we fixed everything overnight, but it finally feels like the store is helping the sale instead of getting in the way of it.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Work Culture
Why Operations Teams Trust Us With Their AI Automation
AI steps touch your customers and your books, so mistakes cost more than time. These are the habits we bring to every automation, from the first audit to the monthly check.
One partner across teams
Support, finance, and reporting automations come from one team with one plan. You're not stitching together a handful of vendors who blame each other's tools.
AI only where it helps
Plain rules handle anything that follows a fixed pattern, and AI handles reading, sorting, and drafting. That keeps your model costs down and the results predictable.
People approve risky steps
Refunds, payments, and replies below a confidence threshold wait for a person. AI speeds up the work, and your team keeps the final say.
Model costs you can predict
We set monthly usage caps with your AI provider and report spend next to results. A busy week can't turn into a surprise bill.
Scoped and priced first
You get a ranked task list and a fixed price before any build starts. The quote covers setup, testing, and monitoring, so the scope doesn't creep.
You own every automation
Workflows, prompts, and logins stay in your accounts, whether or not you keep a retainer. If you switch AI providers later, the workflows move with you.

Good fit
Support teams answering the same tickets
Your team tags, routes, and answers the same order-status and returns tickets every morning, and you want AI to draft replies a person approves.
Finance teams keying in supplier invoices
You retype supplier invoices into QuickBooks or Xero line by line, and you want the data pulled out automatically with a person checking totals.
Founders who want one automation partner
You'd rather hire one automation agency for support, finance, and reporting than juggle a separate freelancer for each tool you run.
Managers building reports by hand
Your Monday starts with exporting orders, tickets, and ad spend into a spreadsheet, and you want the finished report waiting in Slack instead.
Agencies reselling AI automation
Your clients ask for AI automation, and you want an engineering partner who builds, tests, and supports it under your brand.
Not a fit
One workflow in mind
You already know the one workflow you need, like routing orders to your 3PL. Our Workflow Automation Services page covers that direct build at a lower starting price.
Website chatbot
You want a customer-facing chatbot on your website. Our AI Chatbot Development Services page covers chat widgets, knowledge bases, and human handoff.
Unreviewed payment decisions
You want AI to approve refunds, credit, or payments with no person reviewing them. We won't build that, because one wrong call costs real money.
One simple app connection
You need one simple connection between 2 apps. A Zapier template or your app's built-in integration costs less than a $1,250 project.

AI and workflows can handle repetitive tasks like sorting tickets, drafting replies, reading invoices, building reports, and syncing orders between apps. AI handles the reading and writing, and rules handle the rest. Tasks that need judgment, like refund exceptions or supplier negotiations, keep a person in charge. The free task audit ranks your list by hours saved, so you start where the payoff is biggest.
AI is one step inside a workflow, not the whole thing. A trigger starts the run, like a new ticket or an emailed invoice. The AI step reads or writes text, such as classifying the ticket or pulling the invoice totals. Rules then check its confidence score, act on clear cases, and send unclear ones to a person on your team for approval.
DeveloperLook starts at $1,250 for your first AI-assisted workflow. A package of up to 3 automations across 2 teams is $2,950, and a program of up to 6 automations with a roadmap is $6,400. These are fixed setup fees. AI model usage is billed separately by the provider, and we cap it per month. You get a fixed quote after the free discovery call.
A setup fee is a fixed price for building, testing, and handing over the automation, which you then own and run. A retainer is a monthly fee for someone to watch it: accuracy checks, fixes when an app changes, and prompt updates when models change. Our plans are one-time setups with 30 to 90 days of monitoring included. After that, a retainer is optional and quoted on the automations it covers.
Your first AI automation goes live in 2 to 3 weeks on the First AI Automation plan. A package of up to 3 automations takes 4 to 6 weeks, and a full program takes 6 to 10 weeks. Much of that time goes into accuracy testing on your real data, because that's where AI steps earn your team's trust.
Yes, those are the 3 areas we automate most. Support automations tag, route, and draft replies in Zendesk, Gorgias, or Intercom. Invoice automations read supplier PDFs and post entries to QuickBooks or Xero for approval. Reporting automations pull your sales and support numbers into a weekly summary in Slack. Each can run alone or share data with the others.
Hire an agency when you need several automations built fast and documented, and an in-house specialist when automation is a daily, permanent job. An agency brings tested patterns and covers vacations and turnover. An in-house hire knows your business deeply but takes months to recruit. Many teams start with an agency, then hand the documented workflows to an internal owner.
We keep AI automations reliable with confidence thresholds, human review for unclear cases, and weekly accuracy checks against a sample of real results. Every run is logged, failures alert your team, and prompts are versioned, so a change can be rolled back. When a provider updates a model, we rerun your test set before switching.
We send the AI step only the fields it needs, not whole customer records. We use business API plans, and OpenAI and Anthropic both state that API data isn't used to train their models by default. Credentials sit in your accounts, access is limited by role, and logs mask personal details where possible. For sensitive data, an open model on your own server is an option.
Yes, you own every workflow, prompt, and integration we build, with or without a retainer. Everything runs in your own n8n, Make, Zapier, and AI provider accounts. At handover you get documentation and every login, and we remove our access if you ask. You're free to hire anyone to maintain it later.
