I build AI solutions for businesses stuck with outdated systems. Legacy infrastructure, competitive pressure, unsolved problems — I help you modernise and move forward.
Twenty-five years in trades, compliance and financial systems, then years teaching myself to build software. That combination is the whole point: I don't need the problem explained twice.
Where the work stalls, who re-checks what, which step everyone dreads. The build follows from that. No platform decision before the problem is understood.
If the output has to satisfy HMRC, an auditor or a regulator, that shapes the data model from day one. I've been the person answering for the numbers.
Reading messy documents, matching records, catching the errors a tired human misses. Used for judgement-light, volume-heavy work — and always reviewable.
Something usable early, then improved in the open. You see progress in your own workflow rather than in a status report.
Gift Aid data management for charities — from raw donor records to an HMRC-ready claim, with the checking done by software instead of a spreadsheet and a long evening.
Ingests donor and donation data in whatever shape it arrives, matches it to declarations, validates every claim line against HMRC's rules, and produces a submission-ready file with the exceptions separated out for a human to decide.
Gift Aid is money charities are entitled to and routinely leave behind, because claiming it properly is slow and the penalty for getting it wrong is real. clAIrova turns a fortnight of careful spreadsheet work into a reviewable afternoon.
Beta with a small group of charities {{ betaMonth }}, then direct HMRC submission, small-donations scheme support, and the same engine pointed at other regulated returns where the data arrives messy and the deadline doesn't move.
A small group of charities and finance teams get early access {{ betaMonth }}. Leave your email and I'll be in touch directly — no newsletter, no automated sequence.
The kind of job every small business does manually every week and quietly loses hours to. In build now — details when it's closer.
Extracting, matching and validating data from forms, statements, certificates and correspondence — with confidence levels and a human check where it counts.
Getting your data out of a dead-end system and into something maintainable, without stopping the business while it happens.
Returns, submissions and audit trails built to survive scrutiny.
Custom software for the process no off-the-shelf product covers.
Making the tools you already pay for talk to each other, so the same figures stop being entered three times.
Sometimes the honest fix is a better database and two hours of automation. I'll tell you that rather than sell you a model.
One conversation, no pitch. If I'm the right person to build it, I'll say so — and if you'd be better served another way, I'll say that too.
The process that hurts, roughly how much volume goes through it, and what happens today when it goes wrong. That's enough for a useful first reply.
