Questions
FAQ
How quickly can we see something running?
Week three for a clickable internal demo against real data. Week six for a slice your team can actually use. We hold ourselves to those numbers because they're what stops a project drifting into "endless discovery".
Is business automations worth it for a smaller Napier-Hastings?
Often, yes – and counterintuitively the ROI is sometimes faster than for the big end of town because there's less integration overhead. We'll tell you honestly on the scoping call if it isn't.
Anyone else in this space using business automations?
Plenty. Average client recovers 12 hours/week within the first 60 days. The interesting question is rarely "does it work" – it's "is your team ready to use the output." That's what we'd scope on the call.
What tools do you build business automations on?
For business automations we usually reach for n8n, Make, Zapier, Vercel Functions, Cloudflare Workers. We're tool-agnostic at heart – we pick what your Napier-Hastings team can actually run after we hand the build over, not what looks good on a vendor sticker.
