Brands we have worked with

What’s included

AI search visibility
Buyers increasingly ask an assistant instead of searching. We structure your content so AI systems can find, quote and recommend your brand accurately.
Content operations
AI-assisted production for product descriptions and category content at catalogue scale, with human editing, because unedited output reads like it and ranks like it.
Customer service automation
Deflecting repetitive enquiries while escalating the ones that need a person. Done badly this destroys trust, so the escalation design matters more than the bot.
Merchandising & personalisation
Recommendation and personalisation where you have the data volume to support it, and an honest ‘not yet’ where you don’t.
Internal workflow automation
Reporting, feed management and repetitive operational tasks. The least glamorous AI use case and usually the highest return.
Honest assessment
Where AI helps you, where it doesn’t, and where it would cost more than it saves. That last column is the one most consultants leave out.

Why AI projects disappoint

They start with the tool

Buying a platform and looking for a use is backwards. Start with the expensive, repetitive problem.

Output ships unedited

AI-generated content published without editing reads generic and performs accordingly. The editing is the value, not the generation.

Data isn’t ready

Personalisation needs clean data and volume. Without both, it produces confident nonsense.

Nothing is measured

If you can’t say what the AI saved or earned, it’s an expense with good PR.

Two stores. Real numbers.

Both screenshots come from inside the client’s own Shopify admin. No logo wall, no percentage without the dollar figure beside it, nothing rounded up.

Tuff Gear

  • 733orders fulfilled, up 112%
  • 12.3%returning customers, up 68%
  • 2.5xonline store monthly sales since 2024

A store we run end to end: product pages and tracking first, then Google and Meta run against cost per order, then creative written for riders. The showroom sells through Shopify too, so this is the whole business.

A family business whose Meta ads we took over in February 2026. The account was rebuilt around the party packs parents actually search for, and growth came in steps as the winning ads got the budget.

Frequently asked questions

Will AI content hurt our SEO?

Unedited, generic AI content will. Well-edited, genuinely useful content that happens to be AI-assisted is fine, search engines reward usefulness, not authorship method.

What is AI search visibility?

Making your brand findable and quotable when people ask assistants like ChatGPT or Google’s AI answers. It relies on clear structure, real data and quotable answers, a lot like good SEO.

Do we need this now?

The visibility work, probably yes. It overlaps heavily with good SEO, so it’s low-risk. Personalisation and automation depend on your data maturity, and we’ll tell you honestly if you’re not there.

Do you build custom AI tools?

We focus on practical application of existing tools rather than bespoke development. If you need custom engineering we’ll say so rather than pretend.
