Problems we solve

Sound familiar?

Most businesses we work with run fine day to day. A few common problems still cost them time and money. Here are the ones we hear most.

“The number I need is in someone’s spreadsheet, and only they know how it works.”

We doWe pull the data out of scattered spreadsheets into one model that updates itself, so the same numbers are in one place every time.
You getOne version everyone trusts. A report that used to take half a day of copy-and-paste is ready in minutes.

“By the time we know what last month cost us, we’re already halfway through the next one.”

We doWe connect your ERP, payroll and production data and build the costing so it runs on its own, ready when the month closes.
You getYou know your costs within days, while there’s still time to act on them.

“We’re either paying overtime or running short, and we only find out after the shift’s done.”

We doWe match your roster to demand and flag the gaps before the shift, so you staff for what the day actually needs.
You getFewer surprise overtime bills, and fewer short-staffed shifts, because you see the gap in time to fix it.

“My team spends its week rekeying the same numbers between systems and emailing reports around.”

We doWe automate the manual steps: the exports, the reconciliations, and the reports that go out on a schedule.
You getAround 40 hours of manual work saved a month (illustration), so your team can spend time on work that needs a person.
What we do

Practical software that fits the way you work.

01 · AI & agents

AI & agents

We put AI to work on real tasks. It reads messy documents, answers questions from your data, and handles repetitive steps on its own.

02 · Integration

Systems & integration

Connect the tools you already run so your data stops living in silos and spreadsheets.

03 · Data

Data & modelling

Turn scattered numbers into costing, labour and planning models you can trust.

04 · Build

Software & automation

Custom tools built around the way you work, with the manual, repetitive jobs automated away.

How we work

We build in small steps, and you own the result.

01

Understand

We start by learning how the work actually happens, before we touch a system.

02

Build

We connect, model and automate in small pieces you can use straight away. You get something useful early, instead of waiting for one big launch.

03

Hand over

You own what we build. It comes with clear docs and a team that can maintain it, so you’re never locked in to us.

Why did Line 3 overtime spike in week 31?
Overtime hit 67 h (up from 47), mostly Thu/Fri, where coverage fell ~8% below demand after two operators were on unplanned leave and the roster wasn’t backfilled.source: roster + timeclock, w31
