Live — systems running for clients across 10 industries

Systems that do the work nobody should be doing.

Automated outbound and process automation that takes the repetitive work off your team — lead follow-up, admin, document processing, reporting. Built once, runs quietly in the background. No hype, no theatre.

What I do

What I build.

Two focuses: automated outbound that keeps your pipeline full, and back-office automation that takes the admin off your team. Every project is custom-scoped to your business and built only when the maths works.

01

Outbound and pipeline, automated

Real builds

Here's what a few of them look like.

Six real systems I've built, drawn out end-to-end. Each one runs every day for a client. No screenshots, no pitch deck — just the actual flow.

Outbound · Marketing agency

B2B email sequencing — marketing agency

Cold leads from scraping and enrichment, through personalised drip, into a warm handoff. Runs 24/7, stops the second someone replies.

OCR · Dental lab

Dental lab — photo to job card

Staff snap a photo of a handwritten order. The system reads it, validates it against the rulebook, and creates the job in their management tool. No manual typing, no mis-keyed jobs.

Back-office · E-commerce

E-commerce → accounting sync

Annual certification inspections expire on a schedule. The system catches them weeks out, books the next visit, and keeps customers compliant without anyone chasing.

Louie Edge

A bit about me

I'm Louie.

I build AI and automation systems from Brighton, UK — working with clients across 10 different industries. No team, no agency overhead. Just me, shipping every project personally. I take the time to understand your business, I don't outsource any of the work, and I'll tell you honestly when automation isn't worth it. Direct relationships, from the first call through to running it long term.

Process

How it works.

No drawn-out sales process, no lock-in. Just a call, a proposal, and a working system.

  1. 01

    Discovery call

    30 minutes. You tell me what's eating your team's time or what calls you're missing. I tell you what's actually solvable.

  2. 02

    Proposal

    A clear proposal — scope, deliverables and price, whether it's a one-off build or a system I run and maintain for you. You approve it before anything gets built.

  3. 03

    Build & handover

    I build it, you test it, I hand it over with full documentation and a Loom walkthrough. Ongoing tweaks and support after? That's what the retainer's for.

FAQ

Questions worth asking.

How do you decide what's worth automating?
Every project starts with a simple question: how much time or money does this cost you every month, and does the build pay back within a few months? If it doesn't, I'll tell you on the discovery call and we move on. Good automations have obvious ROI — hours of manual admin removed, more meetings booked, leads stopped from slipping through the cracks. Shiny AI features with no clear return aren't worth building, however impressive they look in a demo.
What kind of work does this actually replace?
Anything that's repetitive, rules-based, and quietly eats hours every week. Inbound lead triage. Copy-pasting data between tools. Chasing missed calls. Reading handwritten forms and typing them into a system. Sending follow-up emails. Pulling reports from five places into one dashboard. If a task follows the same pattern each time — even if it involves some judgment — AI makes it automatable. What isn't worth automating: work that genuinely needs human relationships, creativity, or nuanced decisions you couldn't write down.
Who owns the systems once they're built?
You do. Every project runs on your accounts — your n8n, your Make.com, your API keys, your CRM. I'm just the person who wires them together and, if you want, keeps them running. No hostage situations — if you ever wanted to take it in-house, everything keeps working. You get full documentation and a Loom walkthrough, so you could hand it to anyone else to maintain.
How much does it cost?
It depends on scope, and you'll know the number before anything's built. One-off builds typically range from £500 for simple automations to £3,000+ for multi-system projects. Systems I run and maintain for you — outbound campaigns, ongoing automations, monitoring and tweaks — are a setup fee plus a monthly retainer. We'll figure out the right shape on the call. Either way, the rule is the same: if it doesn't save or earn enough each month to justify the cost, I'll tell you upfront.
How long does a project take?
Most builds run 2–4 weeks from kick-off to handover. Larger multi-system projects run 4–8 weeks. You'll get a realistic timeline in the proposal — no optimistic promises. The build itself is usually fast; the time-consuming part is testing against real data and edge cases before it goes live.
Do I need to be technical?
No. I handle the build, the handover, and the ongoing tweaks. Every project ends with a Loom walkthrough showing you exactly how to operate and monitor what you've got. If something needs changing in a month, you message me — you don't need to touch the underlying system.
What happens after I book the call?
30 minutes, no pitch. I ask about the process or calls you want to fix, what you've tried, and what 'solved' looks like. You leave with either a rough proposal pencilled in, or a straight answer that it's not worth automating. Either way, you learn something useful.

Got a process that's quietly costing you money?
