Walk Away
What you'll leave with
The call is an initial discussion about your business, based on what you tell us. By the end, you should have the following.
The tasks we discussed where AI, ordinary automation or a process change could help, based on what you told us about your workflows and team.
Some ideas are worth acting on soon, some can wait and some are not worth pursuing. We explain which is which and why, as far as a first conversation allows.
For the ideas that look most promising, what we would need to find out to estimate the time, cost and preparation involved.
We close the call by summarising the next steps we discussed. You can act on them yourself or with us.

Agenda

We work through your main workflows, such as sales, operations, delivery, admin, finance and client communication, and note where AI or ordinary automation could help.

We discuss each idea by its likely value, the effort involved and how soon it could be in use, and explain our reasoning.
- Questions and next steps
We answer your questions and agree what, if anything, you want to do next.
Consultant
Who you'll be talking to
Opportunity calls are run by a consultant from the Reformat Labs team.
The consultant will ask about your work and how it is done now. They will say where AI is unlikely to be worth the effort as well as where it could help.
Where possible, we match you with a consultant who has experience in your sector.

Questions about the opportunity call
What people ask before requesting an opportunity call.
How is this different from a sales call?
The call is about your business and where AI could help. If paid work from us would be a good fit, we will say so at the end, and the decision is yours. The ideas we discuss are yours to act on, with or without us.
Is this really free?
Yes. There is no charge and no obligation. A first conversation is a useful way for both sides to see whether there is work worth doing.
How specific will the discussion be?
As specific as the information you share allows. We name the workflows, the type of tool or approach that could address each one, and what we would need to find out to estimate the effort and the time saved. For example, we might discuss how enquiries are sorted now and which replies an agent could draft for your team to approve.
What if we already use some AI tools?
Tell us what you use. We will look at gaps in what you do now, ideas you have not tried yet, and whether the tools you have suit the job.
Who should join the call from our side?
Ideally the founder, managing director or whoever makes operational decisions, with someone who knows the day-to-day workflows. One person is fine if that is easier.
Will we get anything in writing?
We summarise the possible next steps before the call ends, so have someone take notes on anything you want to keep.
Which industries do you work with?
Our industry pages cover legal services, finance and accountancy, healthcare, retail, construction, trade businesses, hospitality, estate and property, and dental practices. If your business is in another sector, the call starts from your own tasks in the same way.
