Automation · Derbyshire

The admin your Derbyshire team does by hand, built out of the business. Run from Chesterfield, under an hour to anywhere in the county.

We are based in Chesterfield and take on work across Derbyshire — from Derby in the south to Glossop and Buxton in the High Peak. Tell us the job someone does every day by hand and we will price what it is costing you, then build the system that does it instead. Every project is fixed-price, scoped within 48 hours of your first call.

We come to you. In-person kickoff at no extra charge anywhere in Derbyshire — typical drive time under an hour from Chesterfield.

Who we build for
We build automation for Derbyshire businesses of roughly five to fifty staff, from Derby in the south to Buxton and the High Peak.
What we take off people
We take the daily admin off a person: re-typing between a CRM and an accounting system such as Xero or Sage, chasing quotes and timesheets, and the morning check somebody does before the real work starts.
What it costs to start
Our fixed prices start at £300 for a chatbot and £500 for a single automation; a whole process built end to end starts at £3,000, and the written Process Audit is £1,500, credited against a custom build.
Where we are
We are based in Chesterfield, under an hour from anywhere in Derbyshire, and the in-person kickoff is included with every Process Audit.

Why local matters

Built locally, for Derbyshire businesses.

Derbyshire's economy is a mix that suits automation work well: precision engineering and manufacturing in and around Derby, distribution and logistics through the M1 corridor, hospitality and tourism across the Peak District, and a long tail of SMEs in Chesterfield, Belper, Ripley, and Buxton. The common thread we see is the same: small ops teams under pressure, manual data passing between systems that don't talk, and a sense that something should be automatable but no clear plan for which thing first. That's exactly the gap our Process Audit fills.

Where the hours usually go

Where automation typically pays back for Derbyshire businesses.

Manufacturing & Engineering

Derbyshire's manufacturing base — from Rolls-Royce suppliers in Derby to specialist engineering across Chesterfield and the Amber Valley — typically has scattered shop-floor data and manual back-office handoffs. We automate stock, scheduling, supplier integrations, and reporting.

Tourism & Hospitality

Peak District operators (hotels, holiday lets, attractions, food and drink venues) lose hours every week on bookings, supplier ordering, payroll, and review-management. Common automation wins: unified booking-to-finance flow, automated supplier reordering, AI-driven review summaries.

Professional Services

Chesterfield, Derby, and Belper SMEs running on a stack of unrelated tools — CRM here, accounts there, email everywhere — get the fastest ROI from integration work. Onboarding flows, document automation, and AI agents that handle inbound enquiries are typical.

What we build

The jobs we take off a payroll, and the systems that do them instead.

We don't sell software subscriptions or retainer hours. We scope your problem, build the solution, and hand you something that runs without you. Fixed prices, fixed scope.

Common questions

About working with us in Derbyshire.

Where in Derbyshire are you based?+

Chesterfield — about 5 minutes off the M1 (J29). We're set up to drive to clients across the county for kickoff sessions at no extra charge.

Do you visit on-site for the audit?+

Yes. The 2-hour kickoff session for the Process Audit is included in the £1,500 fixed fee — and travel within Derbyshire (Derby, Buxton, Matlock, Belper, Ripley, etc.) is included with no extra charge.

What size of Derbyshire business do you typically work with?+

Most of our clients are 5–50 staff. The audit makes sense once you have identifiable repeated processes — usually that means at least one full-time person whose job involves passing data between systems.

How quickly can you start a project in Derbyshire?+

Discovery calls are usually within 5 working days. The Process Audit takes 1–2 weeks. Build projects start within 2 weeks of a signed quote and typically deliver in 2–6 weeks depending on scope.

Do I have to be in Derbyshire to work with you?+

No — most of our work is delivered remotely. The local proximity just means we can do the kickoff in person rather than over video, which usually gives a better Process Audit result.

Tell us about the job

You don't need a technical plan. Describe what your team does now and what you'd like to happen instead, in your own words. We reply within 24 hours.

A useful first message answers four things:

  1. What does someone on your team do by hand at the moment?
  2. Which software does it involve? Email, spreadsheets, your accounts package — whatever you use.
  3. What would you like to happen on its own instead?
  4. What should a person still check before it goes out?

No mailing list. We won't email you unless you email us first.

We don't take subcontract, white-label or overflow work, and we don't buy SEO, backlinks, reviews or lead lists. If you're selling something, pick the last option under “Your role” and we'll know straight away.
