The problem

The Expensive Work Is the Work Nobody Calls Work

Someone exports a spreadsheet, pastes it into another tool, formats it, checks it and sends it. It takes forty minutes and happens every week. Nobody logs it as a task, so it never appears in a cost review.

These tasks also fail quietly. A column moves, a paste goes into the wrong row, and the error travels downstream for weeks before anyone notices.

Copying between systems
Weekly reports built by hand
Data typed in twice
Errors found late
Work stalled while someone is away
No audit trail

This work is invisible in the accounts and very visible in the calendar. It is usually the cheapest thing in the company to remove.

The solution

Connect What You Already Have, Then Remove the Manual Step

We map the process as it really runs, including the exceptions people handle without mentioning them, and automate it between your existing tools. No migration and no new platform to learn, because replacing working software is a separate project with its own risk.

Works with your stack

Connects the tools you already use rather than asking you to move to ours.

Visible by design

Every run is logged and every failure raises an alert. Silent automation is worse than manual work.

Handles the exceptions

We map what people do when the case is unusual, because that is where naive automation breaks.

Reversible

Every automation can be switched off and the manual path still works. You are never locked in.

Process

How we implement it

01

Mapping

Week 1

We follow the process as it actually happens, not as the documentation says, and measure how long each step really takes.

02

Build

Weeks 2 and 3

We build the automation with logging and alerts from the start, so a failure is something you hear about rather than discover.

03

Parallel run

Week 4

Automation and manual process run side by side and we compare outputs. It only takes over once the two agree.

04

Handover and tune

Ongoing

Your team gets the documentation and the switch. We monitor and adjust as the process changes.

Real case

A marketing agency recovered 35 hours a week from reporting

A digital agency was spending around 35 hours a week assembling performance reports for 20 clients. Three people pulled numbers from several platforms, pasted them into a template and checked them by hand, every week.

Before MAIS AI

  • Around 35 hours a week on reporting
  • Numbers pulled from several tools by hand
  • Copy and paste errors reaching clients
  • Reports late whenever someone was away

After MAIS AI

  • Reports generated and delivered automatically
  • Same figures every time, from the source
  • Three people back on client work
  • A failed run raises an alert instead of arriving wrong

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Process Automation

We are outside Portugal. Does distance matter for this? +
Less than for most work, because process automation is done against your systems rather than in your office. What does matter is overlap in working hours, and from Portugal we share the UK working day almost entirely, and the rest of Western Europe fully.
Do we have to change tools? +
No. We connect what you already have. Replacing working software is a separate decision with its own cost and risk, and mixing it into an automation project is how both fail.
What happens when an automation breaks? +
It alerts and stops, rather than continuing with bad data. We build the logging and the alarm before the automation goes live, because an automation that fails silently is worse than the manual step it replaced.
Which processes are worth automating first? +
High volume, low judgement, and clearly defined. We start where the payback is fastest so the project funds itself, and leave the ambiguous processes until there is evidence the approach works.
