AI operations partner — Cape Town
That's our job. We look at how your business actually runs, name the parts worth changing, then build them — workflow, website, app, or the quiet automation behind all three.
Instrument 01
Tick what eats your team's time. Adjust the hours if ours are wrong. Everything is worked out in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere, nothing is stored.
The build
Not a black box. Here is the function that turns a customer's WhatsApp message into a priced quote — the real shape of it, on Claude Opus 5, in the same plain JavaScript we hand over at week six.
What it plugs into
Most South African businesses are not short of systems. They are short of wiring between them. Pick anything below to see what a bridge to it actually looks like — and where one isn't possible.
Marks belong to their owners and appear here to say what we connect to, nothing more. What each one exposes is what its vendor documents publicly, as at September 2026 — we check it against your own account before quoting, never off this page.
Where it gets harder — said up front
Sage Pastel Partner
The desktop ledger has no hosted API. We schedule an export and read that, which works — and is slower and more brittle than a hosted one. It breaks when somebody renames a file.
SARS eFiling & CIPC
Portals, with no general public API. We do not automate submissions and we never touch your credentials. Anyone offering automated SARS filing is describing a screen-scraper holding your login.
WhatsApp Business
A full API, but template approval and opt-in rules apply and carry real penalties. It is the one most people get wrong, so we set that part up properly before a single message goes out.
Work
Three shapes the same job takes. Every panel below is interactive — poke at it.
TotalR 79 373
Illustrative figures
Solar installer · workflow + app
Rebuilt the quoting process, then built the tool that runs it. Sales stopped being the bottleneck in week three.
Veterinary group · AI assistant
After-hours messages answered from the practice's own records — and staff can explain exactly how it decided.
Order totalR 0
Illustrative pricing
Trade supplier · website
Orders land straight in stock and dispatch — no retyping, no lost emails.
Services
One team for the operations layer: the process, the site it runs on, the app your staff hold, and the AI doing the dull part.
/01
We map how the work moves today, then rebuild the parts that leak time — approvals, quoting, scheduling, handovers. You get the ranked list before anyone writes code.
/02
Not a brochure. Sites wired into your quoting, bookings and stock, so a visitor becomes a job in your system without anyone retyping it.
/03
The tool your team opens every day: job cards on a phone, an ops dashboard, a customer portal. Built for your process, not a template's.
/04
The part most agencies skip: showing your people what the AI does, where it stops, and who to call when it's wrong. Plain language, your own work, no vocabulary test.
Method
Six weeks from first conversation to something running in your business. If it isn't earning its keep, we stop.
Week 1—2
We shadow the work. Where does the day leak? Which task does everyone quietly dread? That's the brief — not a wishlist of AI features.
The instrument above is this week, compressed. The real version has us sitting next to the people doing the job.
Week 3—5
One workflow, site or tool, built in the open and running for real with the people who'll use it — not a pilot in a sandbox.
One thing, finished, in use. Not four things at eighty per cent.
Week 6 →
Documented, owned by you, explainable by your team. A monthly care plan if you want one. No hostage keys, no black boxes.
Terms
These are the terms of the engagement, not a performance claim. All three go in writing before you pay anything.
Talk to us
Tell us the part of your operation that costs you the most time. Thirty minutes, no deck, no obligation. Bring the number from the instrument above if you ran it.
