How We Work With You
Every engagement starts with a free conversation. We scope everything to your actual situation — no generic packages, no wasted time.
Data Discovery Session
Free
A 2-hour conversation about your business numbers — where your data lives, what's missing, and what's possible. You leave with a one-page summary of your data landscape and a clear view of what to do next.
AI Readiness Audit
£1,500–2,500
A structured assessment of your data across all systems — POS, inventory, ecommerce, finance. We identify the gaps stopping you from using AI tools effectively and give you a clear roadmap to fix them.
Data Foundation
£5,000–8,000
We connect your data sources, clean what needs cleaning, and build you a reliable reporting layer. The result: a single view of your business performance you can actually act on.
Fractional Data Director
From £1,000/month
Two days a month, embedded in your business. We own the data function so you don't have to — tracking performance, spotting opportunities, and making sure your data strategy keeps pace with your growth.
