About
Engineers helping UK SMEs use AI properly
We're an AI consultancy based in Manchester. We work with owners and managing directors across the UK who know their team is losing time to admin. We find where it goes, and we build the fix.
01 · The name
Arx certa means a secure stronghold
Our mark is a stone arch with a keystone. The keystone is the piece that holds the whole structure together. Good workflow design does the same for a business: get the key piece right and everything else carries the load.
That's how we approach AI. We start with how your work really flows, fix what holds it back, and only then add AI where it pays for itself.
02 · How we work with you
Four promises
Plain English
We explain what we're doing and why, without jargon. If something isn't worth automating, we'll say so.
A clear quote
Every project is quoted in writing once we understand the work. No surprises.
You own the work
Everything we build runs on your accounts, with documentation your team can follow.
We measure the result
We record how long the work took before and after, so you can see what you got for your money.
03 · Background
We built infrastructure before we built AI
Before we focused on AI, we spent years running cloud infrastructure, databases and security for UK firms, including law firms. That background is why the automations we build are secure, monitored and properly looked after.
