Meet Alfred
I've spent my career in the tech sector working with global brands like IBM, Vimeo, Kaltura and Monotype — helping teams solve real digital problems at scale.
Now I build AI tools and automations for founders and small businesses who need things done properly.

AI Design Sprint · £750
Turn your brand into an AI-ready design system. In a day.
Claude Design plus Canva is here and it’s ridiculous — type a sentence, get an on-brand deck. But only if your brand is actually set up properly inside the tools. Most companies have the logo in five different drives, fonts nobody can agree on, and templates from 2019. I ingest it all, structure it, and leave you with an AI design pipeline that your team can just talk to.
What you get
- Full audit of your current brand assets, fonts, colours, templates
- Canva Brand Kit configured and organised (logos, palettes, typography, templates)
- Claude Design workspace wired to your Canva Brand Kit
- 5 starter templates (deck, social post, one-pager, email header, flyer)
- Style-guide document so you can onboard future team members in minutes
- 30-min live walkthrough — watch your team generate a deck from a sentence
Who it’s for
- Founders and small teams without a full-time designer
- Consultancies tired of building pitch decks by hand
- Agencies who want their juniors producing consistent, on-brand assets
- Anyone whose marketing asset library is “Google Drive chaos”
One day. £750 fixed. Delivered remote. Requires a Canva Pro or Teams plan on your side (I’ll advise which is right).
civiclaw · open source + hosted from £5k/yr
The audit-native agent runtime UK councils can actually procure.
EU AI Act Annex III hits 2 August 2026. G-Cloud 15 awards 17 September 2026. UK councils need an agent runtime that logs every decision, routes to a human on every gated action, runs on their own infrastructure, and doesn’t send data to a US lab. No US SaaS vendor will ship this at council budgets. civiclaw does.
What ships today
- DSAR skill — UK GDPR Article 15 requests. Intake, system search, third-party redaction with pre/post hash proof, response letter draft.
- FOI skill — FOIA 2000 requests. Qualification, s.12 £450 cost-limit check, department search plan, compliant response with exemption rationale and appeal rights.
- Cryptographic audit log — append-only, SHA-256 hash-chained JSONL. Tamper-evident by design. EU AI Act Article 12 ready.
- Human-in-the-loop gate — every draft response blocks on a logged sign-off. Article 14 enforced structurally, not optionally.
- Model router — Claude / GPT / Gemini / Ollama. Zero US-lab dependency if you run Ollama locally.
- Next.js admin UI — pending sign-offs, live audit feed, chain-verified badge.
Tiers
- Open source — £0. Apache 2.0, run on your own kit. Councils with internal IT capacity start here.
- Hosted small — £5,000/year. We host on a Cyber Essentials Plus environment, SLA, email support, version upgrades.
- Hosted enterprise — from £15,000/year. For NHS Trusts and combined authorities. Adds role-based sign-off, custom integrations (M-Files, SharePoint, Civica, Capita One) and quarterly conformity packs.
Why it wins procurement
- UK-incorporated vendor, UK-hosted infrastructure, ICO-registered
- Cyber Essentials Plus posture from line one of code
- Auditable, tamper-evident log — the regulator’s favourite artefact
- Open source, so your DPO can verify what the agent actually does
- Model-agnostic — you’re not locked to one US lab’s pricing power
Repo on GitLab today, mirroring to GitHub. First pilot cohort limited to 3 councils — email to book a diagnostic call.
