We don't write you a strategy. We come in and build it with your team.
Twelve years of shipping software for businesses that could not afford it to go wrong, now pointed at one thing: getting AI into the operating fabric of mid-market and PE-backed companies. I lead every engagement personally, with a small bench of senior engineers and designers brought in as the work needs. Internal tooling, automation and agents, in production, owned by your people.
Four ways in
Most engagements start with the first and grow into the others. All fixed price against a defined outcome.
Two to three weeks inside the business
We sit with the people doing the work — ops, finance, sales, support — and map where the hours and the errors actually go. By the end of the sprint the top one or two are automated and running, not specified.
The software the roadmap keeps deferring
Every business has three internal tools it has wanted for two years — the pricing calculator, the ops dashboard, the thing that kills the spreadsheet. Built properly on your stack, with AI where it earns its place.
Cost out of the operation, permanently
Quoting, onboarding, reconciliation, reporting, support triage, document handling. Agents built against your systems and your data, with a human in the loop wherever judgement or liability sits.
Your team, AI-native for real
You bought the licences and nothing changed. We work alongside your engineers and operators until the workflows they use daily are the ones with AI in them — then deliberately make ourselves unnecessary.
How an engagement runs
No rate card, no juniors, no hand-off once the pitch is won. If we finish faster we earn a better margin; if we underestimate, we absorb it.
What we don't do
Saying no to these is most of what makes the rest work.
Recent work
Three agents live in six weeks at a £40m-revenue services business
Quoting, customer onboarding and month-end reconciliation automated with the ops and finance teams in the room. Built on their existing systems; handed over documented.
Tech, product & AI diligence on a vertical SaaS target
Platform and team review plus a costed AI value-creation plan for the IC. Two of the plan's items were delivered in the first quarter of ownership.
An owner-managed distributor made AI-native in a quarter
Internal pricing tool and document handling rebuilt with the team, then a twelve-week embed until the new workflows were the habit.
Why this isn't a consultancy
Senior hands, small bench
Brannan leads every engagement and does the work. Where it needs more hands, senior engineers and designers he's shipped with for a decade — never a pyramid with his face on the pitch.
Priced on outcome
Fixed against a defined result, agreed before we start. Same side of the table about speed.
Built to be left behind
Your stack, your repos, your accounts. Nothing depends on us after handover — that's the test the work is held to.
We'll tell you when not to
A good proportion of AI ideas are worse than fixing the process. No incentive to pretend otherwise; we'll say so on the first call.
