AI automation · systems integration · custom software
Run a bigger business without a bigger team.
Growth usually means more admin and more hires. We build AI-powered systems that absorb the repetitive work instead - reliably, securely, and without you needing to understand any of the technology.

Sound familiar?
Hours lost to copy-paste work
Data moved by hand between your CRM, spreadsheets, inbox and invoicing tools. For most teams that is hours per person, every week - done by people you pay well.
Enquiries that go cold
Reply in five minutes and the lead is yours. Reply tomorrow and they have already booked with someone else.
Reports nobody has time to build
The numbers exist, but pulling them together takes half a day, so it happens monthly instead of instantly.
Processes that live in one person's head
When they are off sick or on holiday, things stop. That is not a process - that is a risk.
None of this needs more staff. It needs systems - and building them is all we do.
Flagship build
The AI receptionist
Every email and web enquiry answered in seconds, around the clock. It qualifies the lead against your criteria, answers questions from your own documents, books the appointment straight into your calendar and logs everything in your CRM. A human takes over the moment one is needed - with the full conversation in front of them.
For letting agents that means enquiry-to-viewing on autopilot. For recruiters, candidates qualified and scheduled. For everyone, no more leads lost to a slow inbox.

Engineers, not resellers
Most "automation agencies" glue together no-code templates and disappear when something breaks. Northloop is a small UK practice run by its founder, an engineer with over a decade across AI systems, cloud infrastructure and large-scale software: the kind of engineering that runs this technology for enterprises, applied to your business.
That means automations that handle edge cases, fail safely, keep your data secure, and keep working at 3am.
You deal with Harry, who builds every engagement himself, from the first call to the handover. No account managers, no hand-offs to a junior.
- Fixed-price engagements - never billed by the hour
- Production-grade builds: monitored, tested, documented
- Your data stays yours - security reviewed by default
- Plain-English reporting: hours saved, errors removed, money earned
How it works
01
Audit
We map how work actually flows through your business and find the highest-value things to automate - with a ROI estimate for each, in plain English.
02
Build
We build the automation in a fixed-price sprint: AI agents, system integrations, internal tools. You see working software in weeks, not quarters.
03
Run
We monitor it, maintain it, and keep finding the next thing to automate - as your ongoing automation partner, if you want one.
Ways to work with us
Every engagement is fixed-price and outcome-scoped. Most clients start with the audit, or with the AI receptionist (£2,500 fixed) if a slow inbox is the obvious problem. Sprints and the partner retainer come after. Need something bigger, a custom platform, portal or product? We build that too.
