Business automation

Stop copying data between tools

We build workflows that pick up where one system ends and the next begins: the enquiry into the CRM, the order into the ERP, the invoice into the books.

Each step is logged; a failure alerts a person

What it is

The work between your systems, done by the systems

Most companies already have good tools. What they lack is the link between them, so people become the link: reading an email, opening another tab, typing the same thing again. Automation pays off where that happens many times a day and follows the same rules each time.

  • Best for work that is frequent, rule-based and spread across tools
  • A person stays in the loop for exceptions and approvals
  • Every run is logged, so you can see what happened and when

What we deliver

A workflow you can rely on, not a demo

Process map

The steps as they run today, who does each one and in which tool, written down before anything is built.

Built workflows

The automation itself, in n8n, Make, Zapier or code, depending on what your tools and volume call for.

Integrations

Connections to the systems involved, through their own integrations where they exist and their APIs where they do not.

Error handling

Retries, checks for duplicates and a clear alert to a named person when a run fails, so nothing is lost quietly.

Approval steps

A person confirms before anything costly or customer-facing goes out, where you decide that is needed.

Documentation and handover

What each workflow does, where it runs and how to change it, plus a walkthrough for the people who use it.

What an automation looks like once it runs

Sample data, real shapes: the workflow, the run overview and the alert your team gets.

How a project runs

From a mapped process to a workflow in daily use

  1. 01

    Map

    You show us the process. We write down every step, the tools, the exceptions and where it waits.

  2. 02

    Scope

    We agree which part to automate first, what done means and what stays with a person.

  3. 03

    Build and test

    We build in your accounts and test with real examples, including the awkward ones.

  4. 04

    Launch and watch

    It goes into daily use. We watch the first runs closely and adjust what real data turns up.

What we build with

Workflow platforms
n8n, Make, Zapier
When a platform is not enough
Custom scripts, REST APIs, Webhooks, Scheduled jobs
What we commonly connect
Gmail and Outlook, Google Sheets and Excel, Slack and Teams, Webshops, CRM, ERP, Accounting

We start from what you already have. The list is what we reach for when something is missing, not a stack you have to adopt.

Is automation the right place to start?

A good fit when…

  • The same data is typed into more than one system
  • The work follows rules a person could write down
  • It happens often enough that the delay is felt
  • The tools involved have an API or an integration

Probably not for you when…

  • The process changes every time it is done
  • It happens a few times a year
  • Nobody agrees yet how the process should run
  • The tool at the centre cannot be connected to anything

Use cases

Questions about automation

Which platform do you use: n8n, Make or Zapier?

It depends on what you already use, how much data moves and where it has to be hosted. If you have one of them in place, we normally keep it. If not, we recommend one after the analysis and explain why.

What happens when a workflow fails?

Failures are expected and planned for. Each workflow retries where that is safe, and otherwise alerts a named person with what failed and on which record, so it can be picked up by hand.

Whose accounts do the workflows run in?

Yours. You own the accounts, the workflows and the documentation. We work in them with access you can remove.

Can you automate a tool that has no API?

Sometimes, through exports, email or a shared folder. It is usually more fragile, and we will say so. Where a tool cannot be connected reliably, we tell you before building around it.

Will we be able to change the workflows ourselves?

Yes, if you want to. The documentation explains how each one works, and we can show a person on your team how to make common changes.

Show us one process. We will show you what it could look like.

The analysis is free, takes about an hour of your time, and ends with a written summary you keep.
