01 · Automation
Free first conversation · No obligation · You own the code
Automations fail on messy inputs. We give every record an ID, a single home and validation before we automate what happens to it.
Systems do the chasing, copying and calculating. People keep the approvals and judgement calls, with everything they need in front of them.
Every job logs what it did. When something can't complete, a named person is told why and what to do.
Rates, recipients, templates and deadlines live in a settings sheet or admin screen your team controls.
Most businesses don't need to leave Google Sheets.
Apps Script is a real runtime with real limits.
A dashboard is only as good as the pipeline behind it.
We map the process as it happens today (every handoff, reminder and copy-paste) and then automate the parts that are repetitive and rule-based.
When the same customer exists in four tools with four different spellings, something is missing: an integration that keeps them in step.
| Criterion | Google Apps Script | Zapier / Make / n8n | Custom application |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Teams whose data already lives in Google Workspace | Connecting SaaS tools with simple, linear flows | Complex rules, many users, customer-facing access |
| Running cost | Included in Google Workspace | Per task or per run; grows with volume | Hosting and database; predictable |
| Limits | Execution time and daily quotas | Branching logic and error handling get awkward | Higher build effort up front |
| Ownership | Scripts in your Google account | Flows in your platform account | Code in your repository |

The Research Desk (our own operations)
The Research Desk coordinates clients, specialists, deadlines and invoices every day. We turned the Google Sheets workbook behind it into an automated system with team, client and admin portals, without moving the data off Google Workspace.
You describe the problem in your own words: a form, an email or a call. We ask about the process, not just the feature list.
Written brief
We look at the real material: your sheets, current tools, sample data and the people involved. Most scope mistakes are avoided here.
Process map
You receive fixed deliverables, a timeline and a price. Nothing is charged and no code is written until you approve it.
Scope & quotation
Work happens in stages with a link you can click through, not a status report. Changes are discussed against the scope, openly.
Staging link
Source code, documentation and credentials in your accounts, plus a walkthrough for the people who'll use it.
Handover pack
The task that is repeated most often, follows clear rules and causes the most damage when it's late or wrong. That's usually intake, reminders or reporting. We rank candidates by time saved and risk removed before quoting anything.
Yes. Most of our automation runs inside your own Google Workspace using Apps Script, so there's no new platform to license or learn.
Rules that change often (rates, recipients, deadlines, templates) are kept in a settings sheet or admin screen so you can adjust them without editing code.
Most automations are delivered in 2–4 weeks from an approved scope. Larger multi-step workflows take longer; your scope states the timeline.
Not necessarily. Much of our automation runs on Google Apps Script, which is included in Google Workspace. If a paid platform is the better fit, we explain the running cost before you approve anything.
Every job logs what it did. If something can't complete, a named person is alerted with the reason, and the step can be retried or handled by hand. Nothing fails silently.
We request only the permissions each script needs, work with the access you grant, and you can revoke it at any time. Credentials and API keys stay in your accounts.
Yes. Handover includes a walkthrough for the people who'll use it and written documentation of every trigger, setting and schedule.

Tell us the process that eats your team's time. We'll reply with what we'd automate first, how, and roughly what it would cost to run.
