AI, data and automation

We help you get more out of AI and your data

Your best people are buried in busy work. We redesign those workflows so the busy parts run themselves.

Answer a few questions and we send back your top three opportunities where AI and data can help. Prefer to talk it through? Book the call.

What it costs to leave it

Your highest paid people are stuck on busy work

Not because they’re slow. Two things trap them there:

01
Systems that don’t talk to each otherSo your people move the data by hand.
02
Tools nobody was taught to useSo the AI you already pay for sits idle.

What we do

Connect the data. Automate the busy work. Train the team.

Busy work comes from two places: data scattered across systems that don’t talk, and AI tools nobody was taught to use. We fix both, in that order.

01Connecting scattered dataOne source of truth, so reports agree and nothing needs a person in the middle.
02Workflow automationThe repeat work around that data runs itself: triage, data entry, reporting, approvals.
03AI assistants and agentsTools that read, draft, screen and answer, built into the systems you already use.
04AI training for teamsYour people fluent in Copilot, ChatGPT or Claude on their real work.
In practice

What this looks like in real businesses

One source of truth for the numbers
Property funds · Australian fund managerOne source of truth for the numbers

Their data lived in disconnected systems and spreadsheets, moved by hand. We built a single data layer underneath it: trusted numbers, and live dashboards every team can see.

Numbers everyone trustsRead the property funds briefing
Repeat documents, drafted the right way
Law firm · Boutique practiceRepeat documents, drafted the right way

We embedded their SOPs and best practice into an AI skill that drafts their repeat documents the way their best people write them, in a fraction of the time.

Hours off every document
An analyst watching the inbox around the clock
Investment · Investment firmAn analyst watching the inbox around the clock

An AI agent that watches the deal inbox, screens every new opportunity, runs the first-pass analysis, and files it all in one dashboard.

Always-on screening
Council applications, watched around the clock
Property development · Development teamCouncil applications, watched around the clock

An AI agent that watches council websites for new development applications near their existing sites, flags what matters, and surfaces opportunities and issues early.

Nothing relevant slips past
Lease details, extracted automatically
Finance · Mid-market finance teamLease details, extracted automatically

An AI that watches the inbox for new leases, pulls out the key terms, and has them ready for their system in minutes instead of an afternoon of re-keying.

Key terms in minutes
The CV pile that ate HR's week
Mining services · WA firm · ~200 staffThe CV pile that ate HR's week

A tool that reads every CV that comes in, shortlists the best people for the job, and explains why.

How we work · The Impact First Method

We find the workflow that costs you the most, then we redesign it in five steps

01
Target
02
Map
03
Design
04
Validate
05
Deploy

No six-week discovery phase.

We go straight at the workflow that hurts most.

The right fix, not the fashionable one.

Sometimes AI, sometimes data, sometimes just a better process.

Nothing goes live untested.

You watch it run on your own work first.

Ways to start

Two ways to start

Start here · The Impact First Sprint

We redesign your costliest workflow so it runs in a fraction of the time

One workflow, start to finish. You watch it run on your own work before you commit to anything else.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

How long does the first project take?+

A few weeks, not months.

We scope the Impact First Sprint on a short call, so you know the price and the timeline before you start.

Do we need our data sorted first?+

No. Connecting it is usually part of the work.

Most teams start in exactly that state: data in too many places, nothing reporting properly, a person in the middle holding it together.

What does it cost?+

Workflow Redesign is priced per engagement, agreed up front. No hourly billing. The first engagement is the Impact First Sprint: a fixed price scoped on a short call.

After the build, many clients keep us on a monthly retainer to maintain, support and keep improving what we’ve built. That’s optional, and priced the same way: agreed up front.

AI Fluency training is priced by team size: $5,995 for up to 12 people, $8,995 for up to 25. All prices ex GST.

Who actually does the work?+

Regan and a small senior team.

The person you meet on the first call is the person who builds. No juniors learning on your invoice, no handoff to a bench you never meet.

Who owns what you build?+

You do.

Everything runs in your tools, on your accounts, documented so your team owns it. Nothing stops working if we stop working together.

Is our data secure?+

Security is one of the first things we discuss.

Where possible we work with the AI platform your business has already approved, whether that’s Microsoft Copilot, Claude or ChatGPT Enterprise. We’ll always explain where your data goes before we build anything.
