Without automation With Zyntho

ChatGPT subscriptions nobody opens

You pay for seats. A few people tried it the first week. Most have not logged in since.

Automations that ran 847 times last month

Workflows wired into the jobs your team actually does. People use them because they remove work, not add it.

Generic AI that hallucinates your prices

Off-the-shelf bots guess at your products, customers, and policies. The answers sound plausible and need heavy editing.

Automations grounded in your real data

Claude reads your inbox, CRM, and knowledge base. Answers are accurate, specific, and ready to send.

AI in someone else's data centre

Your client data sitting on a vendor's servers, governed by their terms, accessible to their staff.

Self-hosted on infrastructure you own

Every automation runs on your servers or ours, under UK law, with no third-party training on your data.

Consultancy that promises and never ships

Six-figure engagements where you pay first, get a proposal deck, and wait quarters for working software.

Forty-three automations already built

The engineering is done. The pilot deploys what we have onto your data. You see it work before you commit.

"It'll be ready next quarter"

Six-figure consulting engagements that take half a year to ship one workflow.

Pilot in 7 days, production in 14

Fixed scope, fixed price, fixed delivery dates. We prove the automation works on your data before any money changes hands.

Locked into someone's platform

Your automations live inside a vendor's SaaS. Cancel the subscription and the work disappears.

Open standards, yours to keep

Built on n8n (open source) and the Anthropic API. Walk away whenever you want — the workflows are yours.

how we work

Five phases. Two weeks to first proof.

  1. 01

    Discover

    We map your systems, find the work eating the most time, and scope a single high-value automation to start with.

    Discovery report · scoped pilot brief · indicative cost

  2. 02

    Prove

    We deploy one of our 43 built automations on your real data, free. You see it working in your business before any money changes hands. This is the bit no other agency does.

    Working pilot · weekly results · decision point at 30 days

  3. 03

    Harden

    We take the pilot from sandbox to production — monitoring, error handling, documentation, team training. Most of the engineering is already done. This phase makes it bulletproof for your specific use.

    Production automation · runbooks · trained operators

  4. 04

    Deploy

    We ship to live operation on your infrastructure or ours, with alerts, fallbacks, and a clear handover protocol.

questions

Things people ask before they sign.

You list sixty-four automations. Are they all really built?

Yes. We built the catalogue before opening for clients. Every automation is scoped, designed, and engineered on Anthropic Claude and self-hosted n8n. Some run as live demos on our own infrastructure, others are deployed to client environments as pilots ramp up. If you want a specific one and we have not deployed it before, we deploy it on your business as part of the pilot — that is the point of the pilot programme.

Where do the automations actually run?

On self-hosted n8n on our infrastructure by default — we host the workflows, you connect your systems. If you need full data residency on your own servers, we deploy n8n into your infrastructure instead. Either way, no client data is sent to model training, and everything stays in the UK unless you ask otherwise.

Can I see one running before I apply?

The pilot is how we show it. We do not run generic public demos because each automation has to be wired into the specific data and systems it works on — and a fake demo would not tell you anything real. The pilot deploys one of our sixty-four onto your business, on real data, for thirty days, free. That is the demo.

How long does an automation take to build?

A pilot is live in 7 days. A single production automation in 14. Three-automation Operate rollouts run 30 days. Department-wide Transform engagements run 60 days. These are the actual dates we commit to in writing.

How do I know if my business is ready?

If you have repetitive work that follows rules, you are ready. The free pilot is designed to remove the guesswork — we build one automation on your real data, free, and you decide if it is worth continuing. No commitment until the pilot has proved itself.

What does a typical automation actually do?

Real examples from our catalogue: drafts replies to common customer enquiries grounded in your knowledge base; chases unpaid invoices on a schedule and escalates when needed; generates a weekly business summary in plain English from your CRM, accounts, and inbox; books appointments from inbound emails without a human reading them. Each automation is scoped to one job, done well.

What if Anthropic raises Claude prices?

Your retainer absorbs reasonable API cost fluctuations. If there is a structural change to underlying model pricing, we are transparent about it and re-quote with notice. We also use Haiku for simple work and Sonnet only where reasoning depth matters, keeping costs predictable.

Where does my data live?

On your infrastructure if you self-host, or on Zyntho infrastructure in UK data centres. Either way: no third-party training on your data, no transfers outside the UK without your explicit consent, full GDPR compliance, and a Data Processing Agreement signed before any data is touched.

What happens if Zyntho closes or you move to Japan?

Every automation is built on open standards — n8n (open source) and the Anthropic API. You own the workflows and the configuration. We document everything so any technical operator can take over. The retainer is the cost of us running it — but you can run it yourself, hire someone else to, or pause it any time. No vendor lock-in.

How do I migrate off Zyntho if it does not work?

Cancel the retainer with 30 days notice. We provide all configuration, documentation, and a handover call. The automation either continues on your infrastructure or is decommissioned cleanly. Your data stays with you. This is in writing in every contract.

Who owns the IP?

You own the configuration, the prompts written for your business, the workflow logic, and all outputs. We retain the underlying patterns and components that are reused across clients. This is industry-standard and documented in the Master Services Agreement.

Why n8n and not Zapier or Make?

n8n is open source, self-hostable, and significantly cheaper at scale than Zapier or Make. It gives us deeper control over data flows, custom logic, and reliability. We can host it on your servers if you require full data residency. Zapier and Make are competent for simple connections but constrain what serious AI workflows need.

Why Claude and not GPT-5 or Gemini?

For long-context reasoning, tool use, and the kind of careful instruction following business automation needs, Claude has consistently been the model we trust most. Anthropic's safety and governance posture matches how we think about deploying AI responsibly. We can integrate other models where they fit better — but Claude is our default.

Is this GDPR-compliant?

Yes. We are a UK-based sole trader operating under UK GDPR. Every engagement starts with a Data Processing Agreement. No client data is used to train models. Data residency stays in the UK by default. We have not yet pursued formal accreditations like Cyber Essentials Plus or ISO 42001 — those come as the business scales. The substance of compliance is in place from day one.

What happens during the pilot?

We have a 30-minute scoping call. You give us read access (not write) to the systems involved. We build the automation on a clone or sandbox of your real data. You see weekly results for 30 days. At day 30, you choose: continue (move to Build or Operate), extend pilot (rare), or walk away (no charge, no friction). Most pilots convert.

Do you sign NDAs?

Yes, before any data is shared. Mutual NDA template available on request, or we sign yours.

What if I have an existing automation stack?

We integrate, extend, or replace based on what makes sense. If you have working Zapier flows, we can connect to them. If you have legacy systems, we bridge them. The pilot is the test — we will not recommend ripping anything out unless the case is obvious.

The pilot programme

Bring us your worst recurring task.

We'll build the automation, prove it works on your data, and only ask for a retainer if you want to keep it.
