Business Automation That Actually Saves You Time
I build automation that removes the repetitive, manual work eating your week - lead follow-up, invoicing, reminders, data moving between tools, reporting. No-code where it fits, custom code where it pays off, and an honest take on which you need.
Key takeaways
- A single automated workflow usually costs a few hundred to a couple of thousand dollars and goes live in days to a week.
- No-code fits simple connections; custom code wins once the logic gets complex or per-task pricing stops paying off.
- The usual first wins are lead follow-up, invoicing and reminders, because they repeat daily and break most often.
- Automation you cannot monitor is not finished; every build ships with alerting so a silent failure surfaces.
What I build
- Workflow automation across your existing tools (CRM, email, sheets, billing)
- Lead capture, qualification, and instant follow-up
- Invoicing, payment reminders, and reconciliation
- Appointment booking and reminder flows that cut no-shows
- AI agents and chatbots for support and intake
- Automated reporting and dashboards

Projects I built
Clinic Automation: Patient Questionnaires, Bookings and Monday Sync
Admin work at a US clinic group done by software: patient questionnaires scored, bookings copied to Monday and the patient system, referrals sorted.
Ad Lead Tracking and Duplicate Detection in Google Sheets
Leads from Gmail matched to the CRM, duplicates caught, and a per-campaign report of valid and invalid leads written to Google Sheets.
Daily News Articles Written and Checked by AI, for a News App
Every morning new articles are collected from news feeds, rewritten by AI, checked against the source and sent to the editors for approval.
How it works
A short scoping call
What hurts today, what you already use, and what "done" looks like.
A written fixed-price quote
Scope, price and timeline in writing, approved before any work starts.
Built in stages, on your real data
You see a working first version early, not a demo at the end.
Handover with documentation and monitoring
You own the code and the data, and a support window follows launch.
Working with me from the US or Europe
- Most of my client work is for companies in the US, UK, Germany, the Netherlands and Australia.
- Calls are in English and scheduled in your time zone. My working day covers most of the European one and the US East Coast morning.
- A fixed price in US dollars, agreed in writing before any work starts.
- Pay me directly, or hire me through Upwork if you prefer to work through a platform.
- You own the code and the data, with documentation and a support window after launch.

How much does business automation cost?
A single workflow often runs a few hundred to a few thousand dollars; larger custom systems cost more. See the full pricing guide linked below for realistic ranges.
No-code or custom code?
No-code is great for simple connections and fast wins. Custom code wins when the logic is complex, the volume is high, or per-task pricing stops paying off. I help you pick the right one.
How long does it take?
A focused first automation is often live within days to a week. Larger systems take longer, but AI-assisted development has shortened timelines significantly.
