01 · The problem

The work that pays isn’t
the work that fills the day.

Six workflows quietly eat your team’s week. Not the billable work. The work around it.

P·01

Client onboarding

“First impressions die in five days of silence.”

Contract signed, then nothing. PM, ops and founder bounce emails for a week.

Kickoff pack, intake form and project space go out minutes after signature.

P·02

Status reports

“Friday afternoons, gone to chasing updates.”

Someone pulls the week together by hand, from Asana, Slack and three inboxes.

Drawn from your tools automatically, queued for your approval, sent on schedule.

P·03

Proposals & SOWs

“Every proposal starts from the last one that almost fits.”

Old numbers and someone else’s client name travel between documents.

Assembled from approved blocks and your rate card, ready for review in minutes.

P·04

Invoicing

“Month-end archaeology.”

Billables dug out of Slack, timesheets and memory. Cash arrives late.

Drafts assembled from tracked work. You check them, they go out on the 1st.

P·05

Meeting notes

“Decisions evaporate when the call ends.”

Actions live in someone’s head, until they don’t.

Notes, owners and next steps filed before you’re back at your desk.

P·06

Lead intake

“The lead came Monday. We replied Thursday.”

It waits behind client work for days. By then they’ve booked someone else.

Qualified, logged and answered with a booking link in minutes.

02 · The method

AI isn’t the hard part.
Change is.

So we don’t sell transformation. We ship one working workflow at a time. Four-week cycles, fixed fees, and your approval on everything client-facing.

  1. 00

    Lost Hours Map

    Free · one call

    We map where your team’s hours actually go, and what they cost you. You keep the map, whatever you decide next.

  2. 01

    Discovery Sprint

    1 week · fixed fee

    One workflow, taken apart. Every step, handoff and exception documented, with success criteria we both sign.

  3. 02

    Implementation Sprint

    3 weeks · fixed fee

    We build, test and train your team. Anything client-facing waits for your approval, always.

  4. Handover + 30 days

    Included

    You own everything we build. We stay close for a month to tune it against the real world.

If it doesn’t meet the criteria, you don’t pay for it.

If implementation doesn’t meet the criteria agreed in Discovery, we refund the Implementation fee in full.

We never do

  • Juniors on the build
  • Offshore handoffs
  • Endless retainers

03 · The calculator

What does manual work
actually cost you?

Three sliders. No email required. The number is usually worse than you’d guess.

04 · The proof

Proof, not promises.

Every case ships with real numbers, before and after.

Case 01 · published

Project Keel

A UK service provider whose order processing ran on inboxes and spreadsheets, until the hours became visible.

0 orders a month, processed by hand
18–45min spent per order, before
0+hrs of monthly billing admin, before
0+weeks recovered every month

“Objevo took a refreshingly honest approach to AI when our company contracted them, focusing on business outcomes rather than selling us technology. They recommended AI only where it delivered real value and proved to be equally confident in advising us on process improvements whenever they were the better solution. Would definitely recommend them!”

05 · Who you work with

Founder-led.
Every project.

Objevo is Ioana Costinas: 15 years in software delivery, 7 of them with UK clients, and her own consultancy since 2017. She has built the software, led the teams and run the delivery, scaling one team from 4 to 24.

Objevo runs on the same workflows it sells: lead intake, proposals, status reports, invoicing. If a workflow doesn’t survive her own business, it never reaches yours.

  • Ioana leads every project, from first call to handover.
  • Small senior team. No juniors on the build.
  • UK-focused delivery, billed in GBP.

06 · Questions, answered straight

Before you ask,
yes, you stay in control.

Will the workflow send things to clients without me checking?

No. Anything client-facing waits for your approval. Drafts queue in Slack, Notion or your inbox, and you decide what goes out.

Do I have to automate everything at once?

No. We build one workflow at a time. Each module ships in four weeks at a fixed fee. You decide what comes next, and when.

Who builds the workflow?

Ioana leads every project from first call to handover. Objevo is a small senior team that runs your implementation from start to finish.

Have you used this on your own business?

Yes. The same workflows run inside our own business first, before they reach yours.

What does the guarantee cover?

If implementation does not meet Discovery criteria, we refund the Implementation fee in full.

Do I need technical knowledge?

No. You need someone who knows the process. Build, testing and training are on us.

What tools do you use?

Default is n8n and Claude. If your existing stack fits better, we use it.
