Waitlist · For businesses of 2 to 50 people

Build your Business Control Centre.

One piece of software, built around how your business runs. It replaces the expensive SaaS you pay for, combines the best features of the tools your team already uses, and puts AI to work across all of it.

I'd love to help a small number of business owners build their own. Join the waitlist to be first in line.

THE PROBLEM

You're renting your business, one subscription at a time

Most growing businesses run on ten or more tools. A CRM, a project tracker, a helpdesk, a form builder, a scheduling tool, a reporting dashboard. Each one billed per seat, every month.

Each one does a slice of what you need and a lot of what you don't. None of them talk to each other properly, so your team spends the day copying the same information between tabs.

And now every tool wants to charge you extra for its own AI add-on. Each one can only see its own data, so none of them can see the whole business.

WHAT YOU'LL BUILD

One control centre, built around how you work

AI has made custom software far cheaper and faster to build. For the first time, a ten-person business can own software that fits it exactly, instead of bending itself around tools built for everyone.

Your control centre is one hub for your whole team. It replaces the tools that don't earn their keep, connects to the few that do, and gives AI access to everything in between.

01

Replace expensive SaaS

Swap the subscriptions that don't earn their seat for software you own. No per-seat pricing that punishes you every time you hire.

02

Keep the best bits of every tool

Take the features your team relies on from each tool and put them in one place. Leave the bloat behind.

03

Put AI to work across everything

With your customers, projects and numbers in one place, AI can finally see the whole business. It drafts, summarises, routes and automates work across all of it.

04

Built for your business

Your workflows, your language, your way of doing things. It fits how your team works today and grows with you.

WHO IT'S FOR

Best for businesses with 2 to 50 people

I'm keeping this small so I can work closely with every business. It's the best fit if:

01

You have a team of 2 to 50

Big enough to feel the software bill. Small enough to switch to something better without a year-long IT project.

02

Your tools don't fit

The software bill goes up every year, your team works around the tools, and nobody is sure which one holds the right version of anything.

03

You want AI doing real work

Not another chatbot. AI that knows your business and gives your team hours back every week.
