Case studies

Real projects, real outcomes

Recruitment · Volume agency

Screening in minutes, not days

The pain

High application volumes meant good candidates went cold before anyone could respond, and consultants lost their day to CV formatting and CRM updates.

The solution

Automated screening, acknowledgement and shortlisting across the ATS, plus CV formatting and CRM sync end to end — with instant responses.

Minutes to respond · consultants back to selling
Legal · Mid-size firm

Matters opened without the wait

The pain

Client intake, conflict checks and AML were a manual scramble at the start of every matter, delaying fee-earners and clients alike.

The solution

Automated the full intake workflow — conflict checks, AML and file-opening — with every step logged and audit-ready.

Minutes to open a matter · clean audit trail
Property · Estate agency

No enquiry left cold

The pain

Enquiries, viewings and compliance paperwork were tracked by hand, so leads slipped and progression stalled.

The solution

Automated enquiry response, viewing scheduling, ID/AML and sales-progression chasing across the CRM.

Faster response · fewer fall-throughs
