About Rafal
Right now, a firm your size is quoting faster, chasing less, and winning work you never even saw come up.
Same headcount as you. Better systems.
That's the whole gap, and it closes faster than a new hire.

Most "AI consultants" have never done the job they're automating. I did it for years, by hand, before I automated a line of it. So I'm not guessing.

Map it โ find the real bottleneck โ cut what shouldn't exist โ automate what's left.
Most of the job isn't the automation. AI goes in only where it earns its place. Fixed scope, fixed price, usually live inside a fortnight.

A 15-person fab shop bleeding hours into quotes and job sheets. A new recruitment firm losing evenings to CV formatting and chase-ups. A QA team re-keying figures into three systems. I came up through manufacturing myself: R&D, fabrication, QA, factory IT, Business lean.
Different trade, same bottleneck, and I talk your language on the first call.

โ UK limited company, professional indemnity and cyber insurance in place
โ Built to keep running long after I'm gone
โ I also run AutomationAtlas.io (~900,000 visits/month), so the tools are stress-tested before they touch your business
You're not the experiment.

I take on a handful of builds at a time. No juniors, no account manager, no one relaying your problem to someone who's never seen your floor. You get me start to finish. That's the trade: undivided attention, not a queue ticket, and the slots are limited by design.

Send me the one process everyone in your office complains about. I'll tell you straight if it's worth automating โ
or tell you to leave it alone if it's not.
Costs you nothing but the message.
