Managers, accountants, administrators and anyone with a recurring report
Automate the admin in your week
A full day on the work you do every week because nobody has automated it. You bring one real task. You leave with it running, or with a written reason it cannot be.
3 seats or more takes 10% off, applied automatically.

WHAT YOU LEAVE WITH
Four things, and they are things rather than feelings.
01
One recurring task from your own week automated end to end, tested on real data
02
A written before-and-after: minutes per week, error rate, who owns it now
03
A shortlist of the next three tasks worth doing, ranked by hours saved
04
The judgement to tell an automatable task from one that only looks automatable
AGENDA
How the time is spent.
Times are elapsed from the start, because the same session runs at different hours depending on the date.
- 00:00Choosing the right taskFrequency times duration times error cost. Most people arrive wanting to automate the wrong thing, and the arithmetic shows it in ten minutes.
- 00:45Writing the instructionWhy a vague prompt produces a plausible answer you cannot check, and what a specification looks like instead.
- 01:45Build block oneYour task, your data, on your laptop. We move between tables.
- 03:00Checking the outputSampling, reconciliation totals, and the one control that catches a model that has started quietly making things up.
- 04:00Build block twoHandling the exceptions your first version broke on. This is where the day earns its keep.
- 05:15HandoverDocumenting it so the person who covers your leave can run it. Written down, not remembered.
RESERVE A SEAT
Choose a date, then tell us who is coming.
Seats are held for 24 hours while you pay, so nobody sits on a seat they are not going to use.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
The practical part, including who this is not for.
What to bring
- A laptop you can install software on
- One recurring task, with a real example of the input and the output you produce today
- Sample data you are permitted to show — anonymised is fine and often better
What you need to know already
Comfortable with spreadsheets. No programming required, though you will read some.
Who should not book this
If you have already automated your reporting and want model fine-tuning or evaluation work, this will be too slow for you. Talk to us about a team session instead.
ALSO RUNNING
The other two.
NEXT STEP
Want this run for your own team instead?
For five or more people we run it at your offices, on one of your own processes, agreed with you beforehand on a short call.
Free 20-minute call. We will tell you honestly if we are not the right fit.
