Services

Integrations & automation

Connect the systems you already use, automate repetitive admin and get your data where it needs to be.

  • APIs & third-party services

Consultancy

Not sure what you need yet? We'll look at the problem with you and give honest, practical advice on the way forward.

  • Technical reviews
  • Planning & estimates
  • Choosing the right tools

Put AI to work in your business

AI can take hours of repetitive work off your team each week - when it's set up properly. We'll show you where it genuinely helps, then build it into the way you already work, keeping your data secure.

Talk to us about AI
  • AI assistants & chatbots

    Answer customer and staff questions around the clock, using your own documents, products and policies.

  • Document & data processing

    Pull the details out of invoices, forms, emails and reports automatically instead of typing them in.

  • Workflow automation

    Connect AI to the systems you already use to draft, sort, summarise and route work without the busywork.

  • AI guidance & training

    Find where AI genuinely saves your business time, and show your team how to use tools like ChatGPT, Claude and Copilot safely.

Testimonials

What our clients say

  • I was originally made aware of Peatfire via an app I had seen Gavin created. Following on from initial discussions Gavin was able to not only bring to life my vision but improve it despite knowing very little about the content. Throughout the process Gavin was fantastic to deal with and explained every step ensuring great value for money.

    I will without a doubt use Peatfire again and highly recommend him to anyone looking to have their vision brought to reality in App form.

How we work

A clear process, from first chat to launch

  1. 01

    Discover

    A conversation about your business, the problem and what success looks like. No jargon, no obligation.

  2. 02

    Scope & quote

    A clear written proposal: what will be built, how long it will take and what it will cost - agreed before work starts.

  3. 03

    Build & review

    Work happens in short stages with regular check-ins, so you see progress early and can steer as it takes shape.

  4. 04

    Launch & support

    We handle the launch, hand over everything you need and stay available for fixes, updates and new features.
