Business automation in Sheffield.
In Sheffield's engineering and manufacturing firms, the machines are automated — it's the office that isn't. Quotes, works orders, and job sheets still get rekeyed between systems by hand. We build automations that carry that work on their own.
Real automation with monitoring and fallbacks, not a Zapier zap that breaks on the first hiccup. The kind your team can't imagine working without after a month.
Built for Sheffield businesses
Sheffield built its name on steel and never stopped making things — today it's one of the UK's advanced manufacturing centres, anchored by the AMRC and two big universities, with a growing digital and medtech scene alongside the engineering base. It's a city of practical businesses: firms that make, fix, and build, many running on systems and websites that lag well behind the quality of the work itself.

What we build
Workflow audit
We map how work really flows through your business and find the bottlenecks worth automating first.
Custom AI agents
Agents that handle repetitive, judgement-light tasks — triage, drafting, routing — and hand off cleanly when they shouldn't decide.
Document processing
Pull structured data out of invoices, forms, and emails, then route it where it needs to go.
Automated reporting
The reports and alerts your team rebuilds by hand every week, generated and delivered on their own.
Monitoring & fallbacks
Every automation is watched. When something upstream changes, you hear about it before your customers do.
You probably need this if
- Your team rekeys the same data between two or more systems.
- Reports are assembled by hand on a recurring schedule.
- Things slip through the cracks when someone is on holiday.
- You've outgrown Zapier/Make but a full platform feels like overkill.
Frequently asked
Honest answers.
If yours isn't here, book a 30-minute call. No pitch deck, and we'll tell you straight whether we're the right fit.
How is this different from an automation agency?
Most automation agencies run playbooks — they wire your apps together with Zapier or Make and move on. We go deeper: we understand your whole operation, then build a custom system around it with proper monitoring and fallback handling. If a Zapier template solves it, you don't need us.What can realistically be automated?
Anything repetitive with clear rules — data entry, document routing, reporting, reminders, status updates, intake. Tasks needing real human judgement we leave with humans, but we'll automate everything around them so your people spend time only where it counts.What happens when something breaks?
It won't fail silently. Every automation ships with monitoring and fallback handling, so if an upstream tool changes or an edge case appears, you're alerted before it becomes a problem.Who actually builds it?
The founder. No account managers, no junior handoffs — the person you scope with is the person who builds it.Do you work with businesses outside Sheffield?
Yes. We're a West Yorkshire-based studio and work with businesses across Sheffield and the wider South Yorkshire area, including Rotherham, Barnsley, Chesterfield and Doncaster.
