AI automation in Nottingham
Nottingham’s economy is built on data businesses — credit, banking, health retail — with more than 126,000 people working in financial and business services. Those industries already believe in automation; the opportunity is bringing the same leverage to the city’s SMEs.

The local picture
The anchors are famous: Boots runs the UK’s largest pharmacy chain from its Beeston campus with around 6,500 staff; Experian, a FTSE 100 credit and data-analytics firm, is headquartered here; Capital One’s European base is in the city. Data handling is Nottingham’s home industry.
Around those anchors operates a dense layer of brokers, advisers, agencies, clinics and consumer businesses — firms whose daily work is qualification calls, client onboarding, document checks and reporting.
That work has a common signature: structured conversations and structured documents at volume. It is the most automatable white-collar workload there is, and most Nottingham SMEs still do all of it by hand.
Financial & professional services
Qualification calls, KYC-style document intake and recurring client reporting — deterministic rules around AI components, with audit trails throughout.
Insurance & broking
First-notice calls, quote qualification and renewals chasing — the precise use cases our real-time voice demo was framed around.
Consumer & health services
Appointment confirmations, intake forms and follow-ups — routine contact work a voice-and-pipeline stack handles respectfully.

What we’d automate in Nottingham
Qualification calls that scale
Inbound and outbound qualification handled by an interruptible, real-time voice agent with live operator controls — the capability we demonstrate in our insurance-framed workshop build.
Client documents, checked and filed
Onboarding packs, statements and forms extracted and validated against your rules, with every decision logged — engineered for sectors where auditors follow.
CRM, calendar and ledger agreeing
Practice-management tools, CRMs and accounting joined so client state lives in one place and reporting stops being a month-end project.

The relevant work
We prove capability with systems we’ve actually built — described from their codebases, with no invented clients or results.
Real-time voice personas for insurance workflows
Real-time voice personas with moderator controls, framed for claims triage and quote qualification — Nottingham’s core industries.

The practical bit
Sixteen miles along Brian Clough Way separate our Derby base from Nottingham — near enough that “on site” means this afternoon, not next quarter. No Nottingham office; no need to invent one.
Every project starts the same way regardless of postcode: an email describing the workflow, a straight answer about whether automation fits, then a scoped survey before any build. How we work →
