AI audit & build-out for SMEs

Your business is running on rev.A.

We audit how the work actually flows, mark up what's costing you hours, and build the revision. No retainer to start. No hype.

01Who it's for

You already know which job is the slow one.

SME owners and leaders who suspect AI could help but don't have the time or in-house expertise to act on it. You want a hands-on, accountable operator — not a large-consultancy sales process.

The usual trigger isn't a general interest in "doing AI." It's one specific, named process that's visibly slow, error-prone, or getting harder to staff.

  • 01

    A quote pack takes half a day to assemble and one person is the only one who knows how.

  • 02

    The same numbers get re-typed into three systems every week, and they still don't agree.

  • 03

    Someone spends Friday chasing paperwork that should have arrived on its own.

02How it works

We find the hours. Then we build them back in.

Four stages, in order, with a fixed price agreed before each one. You can stop after any of them.

01 / DISCOVERY

Discovery

Structured interviews with the people doing the work, plus whatever process docs exist. Short, low-effort on your side, scheduled around your availability.

02 / ROADMAP

Roadmap

Time-sinks and quality-risks plotted on an impact-vs-effort matrix, then co-created into a prioritised, costed plan — not dictated to you.

03 / BUILD

Build

Quick wins shipped in 30–90 days, larger systems phased in after. Built by the same person who scoped it — never handed off to a delivery team.

04 / SUPPORT

Support

An optional monthly retainer once systems are live, so what we build keeps running without becoming your problem to maintain.

03The audit deliverable

Every opportunity, plotted and costed.

This is what lands on your desk at the end of an audit — not a slide deck of AI trends. Each dot is a real process we found, sized by the hours it's eating and placed by what it takes to fix. Hover one.

Your numbers. Our arithmetic.

Put in what one slow process actually costs you. Three sliders, no email required — the same sum we'd do on the discovery call, just with you holding the pen.

05What you actually get

Three things, priced separately.

PART 01 · AUDIT

AI Audit

The on-ramp — fixed scope, low risk.

  • Stakeholder & employee interviews, written up
  • Time-sink & quality-risk opportunity matrix
  • Prioritised, costed roadmap
  • ROI summary for each opportunity
PART 02 · BUILD

Build

The roadmap, actually shipped.

  • Workflow automations & internal AI tools
  • Document & reporting generation
  • Quick wins first, larger systems phased in
  • Built by the person who scoped it — no handoff
PART 03 · SUPPORT

Support

Optional, once things are live.

  • Monthly retainer to keep systems running
  • Fixes and small iterations as your process shifts
  • No lock-in — cancel once you're self-sufficient
06About

You work directly with the person who builds it.

rev.B exists because the same time-sinks kept showing up across teams, with no one dedicated to going and fixing them.

Built on a hands-on engineering and fabrication background — years spent leading teams and building internal tooling and process automation from the inside, not consulting on it from the outside.

No large-consultancy sales process. No handoff to a delivery team you've never met. You scope it directly with the person who builds it, and that's the same person who answers the phone afterwards.

08Proof, not promises

A system we built, and run ourselves.

An always-on content and outreach engine for a consumer platform we operate — it generates on-brand social ideas with images, drafts outbound sales emails, and cuts the manual grind down to a quick approve.

0 manual content & outreach time saved, every week
0 social posts generated with images, per run
0 cost per post generated, all-in

AN UNNAMED PLATFORM WE BUILT AND RUN · REAL USAGE NUMBERS, NOT A HYPOTHETICAL

09Engagement model

One commitment. Everything after is your call.

Fixed-fee audit SCOPE + PRICE AGREED THE ONLY COMMITMENT YOUR CALL Quoted build EACH ITEM PRICED SEPARATELY YOUR CALL Optional retainer CANCEL ANY TIME WALK AWAY WITH THE ROADMAP — IT'S YOURS OR RUN IT YOURSELF FROM HERE

The audit is the only thing you commit to. Everything after that is a separate yes.

10FAQ

The questions that always come up.

Is the first call free, and what happens on it?

Yes — a free 30-minute conversation, not a sales pitch. It's there to explain exactly how the audit and build process works, answer questions, and see if there's a fit before anything is agreed. Slots run around your schedule, including early morning and evening.

How long does an audit take?

Typically 1–2 weeks from kickoff to the roadmap being in your hands, depending on how many stakeholders need interviewing and how quickly process docs are available.

What data do you need from us?

Mostly your time, not your data — structured interviews with the people doing the work, plus whatever process documentation already exists. Nothing sensitive is required for the audit itself; data-handling for any build is scoped and agreed separately.

Who owns what we build?

You do. Anything built for your business is yours outright — no ongoing licence fee to keep using it.

Do you replace our IT team?

No. This sits alongside whatever IT support you have, focused specifically on AI-driven process and workflow work rather than general IT.

What tools do you use?

Whatever fits the problem and your existing stack — most builds lean on Claude/Anthropic tooling, standard automation platforms, and custom software where nothing off-the-shelf fits.

What if we're not "AI-ready"?

Most SMEs aren't, and that's fine — the audit exists to find the specific, concrete opportunities rather than assume you need a company-wide AI strategy on day one.

Do grants exist to help pay for this?

Yes — for companies with 10+ full-time staff, the Enterprise Ireland Digital Discovery Grant can cover 80% of the audit fee, up to a €5,000 grant. A separate LEO voucher can offset build-stage tooling costs. See the full grants breakdown for how each one works.

11Next step

Let's find your rev.B.

A free 30-minute call — the first step into Discovery. A short, no-pressure conversation to explain exactly how we work, see if there's a fit, and figure out next steps if there is. No pitch deck, nothing to prepare.

Slots are kept deliberately limited and run around your schedule, not just ours — early morning, lunch, evening, or weekend.
