ServiceAll services
Agents, document processing and workflow automation, built as plain TypeScript in your own cloud and run by us, from £1,200/month.

What you get
Records that live in two systems and belong in one. Typed sync, conflict resolution, an audit row on every write.
The weekly spreadsheet your analyst rebuilds by hand, delivered where the team already looks. Competitor and market research that runs overnight and waits in your inbox.
Inbound leads scored and routed before they go cold. Overdue invoices and unanswered quotes chased on schedule.
Document processing with citations, agents with tool permissions and an audit trail, RAG over your own data. Every automated decision logged with input, output and model version.
How it runs
The same stages run every engagement. The service decides the scale, not the method.
01Blueprint
We trace the process as it actually exists: the spreadsheet, the shared inbox, the thing that breaks on Fridays.
02Blueprint
Talk to us
Scoped and priced before anything is built.
Data model, queue topology and retry policy written down before a line of production code. You sign it off.
03Forge
A weekly preview URL and readable diffs. Every external call audited from day one, so there is no black box.
04CanOS
Deployed to your cloud with your keys. The first week of real traffic is monitored before we step back.
Not sure the shape is right yet? A Blueprint settles it on paper before you commit to a build.
AI consultancy
People ask us for an AI consultancy and mean one of two things. Some want a straight answer on whether AI is the right tool for a problem. Others want the thing built. We do both, in that order: a call and a written brief first, then a fixed-scope build.
If AI is the wrong tool, the brief says so and you have spent nothing on code. If it is the right one, you get a plan with a price, an owner for every risk, and a list of what we will not automate.
Fully managed
For businesses that live on enquiries, we run an AI assistant on WhatsApp and your website. It answers, checks your calendar, books appointments and handles routine admin. It does only what is in an approved catalogue you have signed off, and anything outside it goes straight to a person.
Canarlo monitors every conversation, tunes the responses and sends a monthly report tying activity to bookings and hours saved. You are not configuring a tool; you are getting a service that someone is watching.
Who it fits
Booking-heavy and appointment-sensitive. Enquiries answered without tying up the front desk all day.
Missed calls are missed jobs. Every enquiry answered and logged before a competitor calls back.
Table bookings and event enquiries handled around the clock, even after reception has gone home.
Client enquiries triaged and routed the moment they land, not whenever someone checks the inbox.
Pricing
Automation and AI workers
Workflows mapped and shipped, then run and watched: typed sync or a scheduled pipeline, error handling, structured logs, human approval where it matters.

Zapier is right until it isn't. Simple two-step flows with stable shapes should stay there. The ceiling arrives fast: no typed inputs, no replay, no audit trail. We build the same workflow in plain TypeScript that you can diff, test and own.
Data entry and system syncing, report generation, lead routing, document drafting, follow-ups and reconciliations: the repetitive work that eats a team's week. Also AI research pipelines, such as competitor analysis, market validation and prospect discovery.
Both, in that order. A twenty-minute call and a written brief come first, and the brief says whether AI is the right tool at all. If it isn't, you've spent nothing on code. The free AI Readiness Assessment and a Blueprint (from £4,500) are the two cheapest ways to get a straight answer.
Where an answer comes from your own documents (RAG), it cites the source. Every automated decision is logged with input, output and model version, and evals run in CI so a quality regression fails the build instead of reaching a customer. Anything outside the agreed scope is handed to a person.
From £1,200/month, plus a one-off setup fee scoped to your channels. Hardware installed in your own building is quoted separately. Compare it with a receptionist: commonly £2,000 to £3,000 fully loaded, for office hours only.
In a database you own, in a UK region by default. Conversation logs and configuration sit on your own instance, never pooled with other customers and never used to train a model. The reasoning step still calls a cloud AI provider to generate responses, and we say so up front.
Optionally. A retainer from £500 a month covers vendor API changes, dependency updates and continued workflow work, from the same engineer who built it. Or you take the code and a runbook and run it yourselves.
Not sure where to start
It is not a build. It is a free first look at your situation, and it leads into a Blueprint.
Areas we cover
We build for businesses across the UK, remotely by default, from our Leeds studio. These pages cover the local economy in each place and where AI tends to pay off there.
