How we help

Six jobs SMEs hire us to do

Small, fixed-scope engagements: a discovery week, a working prototype, or a shipped tool your team owns. Start with the sentence that sounds like your week.

New to this? Artificial intelligence consulting in Ireland explains the six weeks, who it suits and what gets handed over, and invoice processing automation shows one shipped workflow end to end.

Which one is you?

Also common

Reporting and admin slow you down

Monday morning is a two-hour rebuild of last week's numbers. The fix: the report writes itself from the systems you already use. You review, not assemble. Typically 1 to 2 weeks to a first fix.

Off-the-shelf SaaS doesn't fit

You pay for forty features, use six, then export to a spreadsheet anyway. The fix: a small custom layer that speaks to your existing tools instead of replacing them. Typically 3 to 4 weeks for a custom build.

Support email is drowning us

Support that triages itself

Your inbox arrives sorted, with replies already drafted.

Inbox, helpdesk and chat agents that read incoming messages, route them, draft replies and escalate the ones a human needs to see. Built on top of the tools your team already uses.

Today
Every message read by hand, twice, before anyone answers.
After
Routed and drafted overnight. Only the exceptions reach a person.

Leads go cold before we reply

Sales that follows up

Every inbound lead gets a considered first reply, same day.

Lead qualification, enrichment and first-touch drafts that run while your team sleeps. Quote and proposal generation from your own templates, pricing logic and product data.

Today
Good leads sit unanswered because everyone is busy selling to someone else.
After
Qualified, enriched and drafted before 9am. Your team edits and sends.

Nobody can find anything

Knowledge your team can ask

People stop pinging the same three colleagues for the same five answers.

Retrieval over your documents, SOPs, contracts and wikis: grounded answers with citations and access controls, so the answer comes with its source attached.

Today
The answer exists, in a PDF, in a folder, that one person knows about.
After
Ask in plain English. Get the clause quoted, with a link to the source.
Book 20 minutesScoped over 1,000+ technical manuals

Month-end is still manual

Back-office that runs overnight

The Monday-morning work is finished before Monday morning.

Invoice and document processing, recurring reports, CV screening, data entry between systems. The repetitive middle of the month, handled.

Today
Someone rekeys the same figures between two systems, every week.
After
Matched and reconciled overnight. A human reviews the mismatches only.

Calls go unanswered

Voice and chat agents

Nothing rings out, and every call leaves a record.

Customer-facing voice and chat agents that qualify, answer and hand off cleanly. The same pattern as Ella, the agent running live on this site.

Today
Out-of-hours calls go to voicemail, and voicemail goes nowhere.
After
Answered, qualified, booked, and summarised into your inbox.

We don't know where to start

AI readiness and roadmapping

A ranked, costed shortlist instead of a technology wishlist.

When you don't yet know which workflow to attack first: a short roadmap aligned to your data, your compliance posture and the grants you qualify for.

Today
Six ideas, no way to rank them, and nobody willing to pick.
After
Five candidates ranked, with an honest ship-or-don't on each.

What clients said

The same work, already delivered

“Combining clinical expertise with large language models to support evidence informed strategy development.”

Artellis supported a multidisciplinary public health team in exploring how AI tools could be used to summarise and synthesise national and international policy documents related to healthy ageing. The results were presented at a national public health scientific meeting and received formal recognition. This project highlighted the potential of hybrid approaches, combining clinical expertise with large language models to support evidence informed strategy development.

“His work helped move our team forward with greater confidence in this new era of AI.”

Working with Richard Foley was a game changer for our energy utility company. Richard delivered specialised AI solutions that demonstrated the value of using AI to support process documentation and customer-facing materials.

This included exploring how AI could assist with documenting […] helping to turn screenshots and system information into clearer, more structured guidance for the team.

The practical training he provided, together with his wider consultancy on AI integration, was particularly valuable. His work helped move our team forward with greater confidence in this new era of AI. Highly recommend.

Questions about how the work runs

What clients ask before they commit to a first engagement.

What is in scope for a first engagement?
One workflow, chosen on volume and repeatability: support triage, sales follow-up, knowledge retrieval, back-office automation, a voice agent or an AI readiness review. Scope is fixed before we start, in writing, so you know what arrives. Anything discovered along the way is quoted separately rather than absorbed silently.
What does Artellis deliberately not do?
We do not sell licences, resell software, or run a rebadged offshore team. We also do not build anything that acts on customers or money without a person approving it. Output from Artellis work is decision support: your team reviews, tests and approves it before operational use.
Who owns the tool once it is built?
You do. Accounts, credentials, code and data sit in your name from day one, and the handover includes documentation written so another developer could take it over. There is no lock-in and no monthly fee needed just to keep the workflow running.
How is the work priced?
Fixed-scope engagements rather than day rates: a discovery week, a prototype, or a shipped build. Price depends on the workflow, the systems it touches and how much of the running you want to own. Ella on this page can size it roughly; Richie confirms a firm number on a call.
What happens after handover?
Your team runs it. You get the documentation, the training session, and a short written record of what the workflow does and where the human approval sits. Ongoing support is optional and priced separately, never assumed as part of the build.
Can we start with something small to test you out?
Yes, and most clients do. A discovery week ends with a working prototype on your own data and an honest view of whether the rest is worth building. If the answer is no, you are told so, and the week still leaves you with something usable.
