Businesses don't need more AI hype. They need work off their plate. ❌ They don't want another "AI expert" who just knows prompts. ❌ They don't want a tool that breaks the moment their process gets slightly complex. AI fails when it's a gimmick bolted onto your business. Today, AI only works when it's built as a real system, one that runs your actual workflow, not a demo. Businesses Don't Want AI for Show. They Want Work Done. That's where I come in. I'm a Claude AI Systems Builder who breaks away from generic chatbots and one-off prompts. Instead, I design coordinated systems that handle real, repeated work, from raw input to finished result, on autopilot. What Makes Me Different? I research the best possible solutions for a given business problem and build AI efficient systems. The problem could be: 1 sales reps losing hours each week to manual prospect research before calls. 2 Content creation stalling because every piece starts from a blank page, business data scattered across five different tools with no one to move it between them. 3 or raw scraped and exported data that needs constant manual clean-up and validation against criteria like compliance and quality before anyone can use it. The solution: I create automations, connect different platforms together, and continuously improve internal workflows. I build an efficient system that delivers the exact result you ask for. Here's what I bring as your Claude AI builder: ✔️ Systems-first, because a single prompt without structure breaks under real use ✔️ Small, focused Claude Systems that each do one job well ✔️ Components connected into one coordinated workflow, not disconnected pieces ✔️ Automation that takes your raw idea or data and returns a finished result ✔️ Documentation and support, not just a handoff and goodbye Clients Choose Me When: Their team is buried in repetitive tasks and needs it handled fast They want someone who can own the strategy, the build, and the connections between tools They're done with generic AI chatbots that fall apart outside a demo They need a full workflow builder, not just another prompt writer Examples of What You Get With Me as Your Claude AI Builder: 🔹 Custom Claude Systems built for your exact repeated tasks 🔹 Full systems that search, gather, validate, organize, and analyze data 🔹 Content pipelines that research, write, and package YouTube scripts, titles, and descriptions 🔹 Backend automation for lead follow-up, client onboarding, and reporting 🔹 Drafted emails, proposals, and client communication that save you hours every week Message me, and let's turn your busywork into a system that runs itself.

I help startups and growing businesses improve operations, automate manual processes, and implement systems that support scalable growth. Over the last decade, I have worked across operations, recruitment, project delivery, supply chain management, and startup leadership. Most recently, as Co-Founder & COO of an EdTech startup, I led the implementation of CRM systems, workflow automation, AI-powered lead qualification, and operational process improvements. My approach is business-first. I focus on understanding operational bottlenecks, reducing manual work, improving visibility, and creating efficient processes before introducing automation or AI. Areas I regularly help clients with include: • CRM implementation and optimisation • Workflow automation (Make, Zapier, Airtable) • AI-powered lead qualification systems • Operational process improvement • Project coordination and delivery • AI agent and business automation solutions • Systems implementation and operational scaling Recent projects include: • AI-powered lead qualification and sales operations systems • CRM architecture and automation workflows • AI-assisted outbound lead generation systems • Operational dashboards, reporting, and visibility frameworks If you're looking to improve operational efficiency, automate repetitive work, or implement scalable systems that support business growth, I'd be happy to discuss your project.

Hi I'm Mia! 👋 I consult on and build AI automated systems, agentic workflows, AI agents, and integrations for B2B companies. I've audited Sales, Marketing, and HR for a UK enterprise company doing £100M+ in revenue. Built a lead scraping system that generated 14,000+ qualified leads in 1 month for a 7-figure marketing agency and cut a 180k sub YouTuber's content production time from 15 hrs a week down to 3hrs. I do this with a variety of tools inc. Make, Zapier, ChatGPT, Claude Code etc... If you've got a minute, here's some more info on recent projects and what it's like to work with me: My favourites include: ⚫ AI consulting & process audits mapping sales, marketing, operational processes end-to-end, identifying bottlenecks, and delivering a roadmap to clear them. Most recently for a UK enterprise company doing £100M+ in revenue. ⚫ AI-powered SOPs & knowledge bases that double as an internal assistant for the team, with a full handover so they can run it without me. ⚫ Onboarding systems to fully automate client onboarding inc. invoicing, forms, task assignment, email follow-ups and Slack notifications, all tracked in a live dashboard. ⚫ Lead scraping & enrichment systems, the most recent being complex, real-world workflows across multiple third-party APIs (definitely not a simple zap) that generated 14,000+ qualified leads in one month). ⚫ Content ideation & script generation systems that cut a 180k subscriber YouTuber's weekly production time from 10-15 hours down to 2-3. I also have experience with more or less every CRM/project management tool (think HubSpot, Pipedrive, ClickUp, Airtable, Notion, Salesforce, etc) and have built custom integrations including a Notion CRM and custom dashboard, presenting multiple sources of data to make easy business decisions. If you're looking for someone passionate about process automation, who treats audits and builds with the same rigour, and who documents everything with Loom walkthroughs as I go, I'm your person. Whether you work with me for a day, a week, or a year, you'll get clean systems, honest recommendations, and fantastic communication the whole way through. Thanks, Mia

Most of my work starts when a business has outgrown spreadsheets, fragile automations, and disconnected tools and needs reliable systems that hold up under real daily usage. I specialise in business process automation, API integration, and internal system development, connecting CRMs, databases, automation platforms, and third-party tools with clean logic and predictable behaviour. No constant fixes. No surprise failures when volume increases. I work end to end from mapping the operational problem to designing the workflow, building the automation, testing edge cases, and staying available after delivery. Full ownership throughout, not just at handoff. My work covers workflow automation, CRM integration, data pipeline development, internal tooling, and AI-powered process automation used as part of the system, not dropped in as a feature. I run an agency setup handling both one-off system builds and ongoing retainer-based engagements. I work best with founders, operations managers, and growing teams who need dependable backend systems instead of constant firefighting. If your internal workflows are unpredictable, fragile, or just taking up too much of your team's time that's exactly the kind of problem I work on. Happy to talk through what you're working on.

I build custom AI agents and AI voice agents that take over real business workflows, not basic chatbots or disconnected automations. Recent results include: • £304,000/year saved by automating overtime, shift-swap, payroll and approval workflows across 13 operational sites • 30+ staff hours saved every week through an automated onboarding agent built for a US matchmaking company, which has successfully handled hundreds of customer onboardings I have also built a highly reliable, low-latency AI voice agent platform designed for rapid deployment across receptionist-style use cases. It can be customised for businesses such as dental practices, hotels, home-service companies and other appointment-based organisations, then extended for more specialised AI voice agent requirements. The platform supports natural conversation, interruption handling, appointment workflows, CRM and business-system integrations, knowledge retrieval, human handoffs, monitoring and configurable business logic. The conversational experience remains flexible while critical actions and rules stay controlled and dependable. My focus is building reliable, production-ready systems that can communicate with customers, make decisions, use business tools, update records, and escalate to humans when required. My work includes: • Custom AI agents and multi-step agent workflows • Low-latency AI voice agents and virtual receptionists • CRM, calendar, email and internal-system integrations • Business process and workflow automation • Document search and cited knowledge-base assistants • Human review, escalation and monitoring systems • API, webhook and third-party platform integrations My core stack includes Python, OpenAI and Anthropic models, OpenAI Realtime, LiveKit, n8n, REST APIs, webhooks, custom RAG pipelines and modern cloud infrastructure. Every system is built around the client’s real workflow and delivered with testing, monitoring and clear documentation. For organisations that want complete control over their data and infrastructure, I can also provide Hermes-based assistants and fully managed self-hosted deployments.
