From idea to a working product in weeks, not a year

Big companies lose a year between a good idea and a working product. We show you yours running on your own data within weeks, at a fixed price, before the big budget is committed. Then we build it, run it and take cost out of the operations you already have.

  • Prototype in 2 to 4 weeks
  • Fixed price per phase
  • You own the code

The challenge

In a big company, a good idea can take a year to become a product: a business case, a budget round, the IT queue, months of analysis. By then, someone else got there first.

Ideas that wait a year

Approved, then parked behind a full IT backlog. We put a working version on your own data in front of you within 2 to 4 weeks.

Pilots that never reach daily use

The demo impressed the board, then stalled on real data, real volumes and security checks. We build for daily use from the first week.

Costs that grow with every site

Each new team, site or country adds people, spreadsheets and tools. We take the manual work out and measure what it saves.

One team designs, builds and runs it, at a fixed price per phase, and you can stop after any phase and keep what has been delivered.

Building new technology

New products your competitors don’t have yet

A new platform for your customers, an AI product built on your own expertise, cameras that turn what happens into data you can use or sell. The first version is in your hands within a month, and you own all of it.

Software and platforms

A new product line, without building a team first

We build all kinds of new software products, from the first prototype to launch: a learning platform for schools with web and mobile apps on one API, or a tournament app that shows live scores to organisers, referees and spectators. One team designs, builds and hosts it, including the accounts, payments and backend, and you own the code.

  • Web and mobile apps
  • Platforms and internal tools
  • A working prototype in weeks
  • Hosting, monitoring and support

AI products

AI products built on what only your company knows

If AI can do the job, we can build a product around it: a tutor that explains maths out loud, cameras that follow every rally on a padel court, or genetics models that run inside a hospital so patient data never leaves the building. We choose and train the models, build the apps around them and keep them running, and we measure how fast and how accurately they work before anyone relies on them.

  • Tutors, voice agents and assistants
  • Models trained on your own data
  • AI that runs on your own servers
  • Speed and accuracy measured before launch

Computer vision

What your cameras see, turned into data you can use or sell

If a camera can see it, we can measure it. Two fixed cameras follow every rally on a padel court and turn it into statistics and highlights, and our cataract lens vision simulator uses an iPhone’s camera and depth sensor to show how the world looks through each type of lens. The processing runs on the device, at the site or on your own servers.

  • Tracking and measurement
  • Live statistics and highlights
  • Simulation on phones and headsets
  • Processing on the device or your own servers

Improving operations

Lower running costs across every team and site

For established companies we take the manual work out of how orders, documents and customers move through the business, connected to the ERP and CRM you already run, and we report the savings against where you started.

Optimising operations

Routine work that runs on its own

We find the hours your team loses to routine work and take them back: orders that move without being typed in again, approvals that no longer wait in an inbox, and clear rules for the cases that still need a person. At one warehouse company, preparing an order now takes half the time.

  • Process mapping
  • Finding bottlenecks
  • Automating routine tasks
  • Routing exceptions to the right person

Reducing costs

Pay less for software, servers and manual work

We review the software, subscriptions and manual work your company pays for. Overlapping tools are combined, repetitive work is automated and servers are sized to what you use. If AI costs are high or hard to predict, we can run models on private servers for a fixed monthly price.

  • Reviewing software and licences
  • Combining overlapping tools
  • Automating high-volume work
  • Private AI hosting at a fixed cost

Organising systems

Every system showing the same numbers

We connect your CRM, ERP, documents, email and phone systems so information is entered once and stays the same everywhere. Management gets one dashboard with the figures they need.

  • CRM and ERP integration
  • Data clean-up and migration
  • Document and records structure
  • Management dashboards
More about organising systems

AI in daily work

AI your staff use every day, not another trial

Put AI to work in the company you already run: invoices read and matched before anyone opens them, contracts drafted from your own templates, and staff who can ask your documents a question and get the answer with its source. We set it up with your team, so it becomes part of everyday work instead of another trial.

  • AI assistants and agents
  • WhatsApp and phone automation
  • Automatic document processing
  • Staff training

How we work

Proof in weeks, a working system in about three months

The first reply is free. Within 2 to 4 weeks a fixed-price prototype or discovery shows you what you will get, before you commit the full budget.

More about our approach
Within 48 hours

First conversation: Tell us what you want to build or improve. Within 48 hours we reply in writing with how we would do it and what it would cost.

2 to 4 weeks

Prototype or discovery: A fixed-price first phase: a working prototype for a new product, or a map of where time and money go in an existing company.

6 to 10 weeks

First build: The first version in daily use, with testing, monitoring and training. Larger products are built in stages.

Ongoing

Growth and support: We host it, keep it running and keep building with you as it grows.

Why Avelridge

The people in the meeting are the people who build it

Big consultancies send partners to the meetings and deliver a report months later, and standard software makes your team adapt to it. With us, the engineers you meet write the code, and everything they build is yours.
