Who you work with
Jacob and his team, from the first call to ongoing support

Run by an operations lead.

Jacob, our founder, runs operations at an agency and built the system it runs on for planning work and team capacity.

It’s why our AI consultancy starts with how your work actually runs: who does what, where things get stuck and which tools you already pay for. Then we put AI where it earns its place, and say plainly where it doesn’t.

You deal with the people who build it: Jacob and his team, from the first call to ongoing support. There’s no sales team and no hand-off.

More about Propel

Small and mid-sized UK businesses.

We’re a strong fit where an office keeps work moving on site, on the road or on the shop floor. If yours runs differently, the free 30-minute call is still the place to start.

Based in Grimsby, working across the UK. Most of the work happens remotely, in the tools you already use.

What we build.

AI assistants and agents, automation and custom software, built around the tools you already use (that’s AI integration), plus ongoing support to keep them working.

Plain answers.

Anything else? See all the questions, read our practical guides, or send us a message.

What is a Fit check?

It’s the first stage of working together: a paid look at how your business runs and the tools it uses. We find where AI and automation would help, and give you a written plan with a price for anything worth building. There’s no commitment to build.

What does it cost?

It depends on the size of the job, and every stage is priced in writing before work starts. After the call, we’ll tell you what a Fit check would cover and its price. The Fit check then prices anything worth building.

Is this just a chatbot?

No. We build AI assistants and agents for real tasks, automation that connects the software you already have, and custom software and dashboards. If a simpler fix is the right answer, we’ll say so.

What’s the difference between AI and automation?

Automation follows rules you set: when this happens, do that. AI is useful when a task needs reading, writing or judgement, like drafting a reply or summarising a job. Good systems often use both, and plenty need no AI at all.

Who checks what the AI does?

A person approves anything that goes to a customer. AI handles the routine parts, and your team makes the decisions that need judgement.

Will we have to replace our software?

In most cases, no. We build around the tools you already use, and only suggest something new where it would clearly help.
