// AI and custom softwareAutomation · Systems · Assistants

Your business,
supercharged.

We find the jobs that quietly eat your team's week, then build the AI and software that does them for you. Custom systems, shaped around the way you already work.

01Where the week goes

Every business has a job that eats ten hours a week.

The one everybody dreads and nobody has time to fix. Those are the jobs we take away. Pick the ones you recognise.

Over a year, that is520hours13working weeks

Simple arithmetic: 52 weeks a year, 40 hours to a working week.

02What we build

Software that does the work, as well as tracking it.

Most business software is a place to record what people did. Ours takes on the doing as well. It usually comes as four parts that work together.

  • 01

    Automation for the slow jobs

    The repetitive, skilled work that eats the week, handled by AI agents that follow your rules and hand back finished work.

    • Slicing, quoting, scheduling and data entry
    • Works to your settings and house style
    • A person signs off anything that matters
  • 02

    Systems that fit your business

    ERPs, dashboards and staff portals shaped around your process, so the business doesn't have to bend around off-the-shelf software.

    • Orders, stock, jobs and finances in one place
    • Live dashboards in place of the Monday report
  • 03

    An assistant that gets things done

    Every system we build has a chat built in. Ask it a question and it answers from your data. Ask it to do something and it does it.

    • Answers from live numbers
    • Carries out tasks, within the limits you set
  • 04

    A front door for your own AI tools

    We give your system an MCP server, the standard way AI assistants plug into other software. The people you choose can then work with it from the AI tools they already use.

    • Works with the assistants your team already has
    • The same permissions as everywhere else
    • Switched on per person

03What it looks like

Picture it in your business.

Two examples of the kind of thing we build. Yours will look different, and that's the point.

A 3D print shop

From ten hours of slicing a week to none.

Today

Every order means opening the model, picking a printer, orienting the part, slicing it and keying the job into a spreadsheet. It takes about ten hours a week, and it lands on your most skilled person.

Afterwards

Orders arrive ready to print. Your engineer checks the work, then spends the week on engineering.

A 3D print shop

What we build

  1. 01

    Automatic slicing

    New orders are sliced to your settings and matched to the right printer the moment they arrive.

  2. 02

    Agentic modelling

    An AI agent drafts fixtures and simple part changes for your engineer to check and approve.

  3. 03

    An ERP that ties it together

    Orders, the print queue, stock and invoices in one system, with an assistant and an MCP server built in.

Finance and people

One place for the numbers and the people.

Today

Month end means exporting from three systems into one spreadsheet. Leave requests live in emails and in somebody's memory. Nobody is sure which version of the figures is current.

Afterwards

The numbers are always current, and nobody chases a form.

Finance and people

What we build

  1. 01

    A live finance dashboard

    Revenue, costs and cash pulled together automatically, with the detail one click away.

  2. 02

    A staff portal

    Leave, timesheets and expenses entered by the people they belong to, and approved in a tap.

  3. 03

    Chat for everyone, with limits

    Staff ask how much leave they have left. Directors ask how the quarter is going. Each sees only what they should.

Your business

Your ten-hour job goes here.

Today

Tell us about the job everyone dreads. The one with the spreadsheet only one person understands, or the task that has to be done by hand every single week.

Afterwards

The job gets done without anyone doing it, and you decide what to tackle next.

Your business

What we build

  1. 01

    We watch it happen

    We sit with the people who do the job and map every step, including the ones nobody wrote down.

  2. 02

    We build the smallest thing that removes it

    One contained piece of software with a fixed scope and price, proven on real work.

  3. 03

    We connect it to everything else

    Once it earns its keep, it grows into the system, the assistant and the dashboards around it.

Tell us about it

04The assistant

Ask it. It does it.

Every system we build comes with an assistant that knows your business and can act on it. Pick a request to see one at work.

Assistant

Book me off Thursday and Friday next week.

  • Checked your allowance: 11 days left
  • Checked the team calendar: no clashes
  • Sent the request to your manager

Done. Thursday and Friday are requested and your manager has been asked to approve. That leaves you 9 days.

Slice order 2041 and get it on a printer today.

  • Sliced 14 parts with your standard profile
  • Printer 3 is free from 2pm: job booked
  • Updated the order and the delivery date

Order 2041 is sliced and booked on Printer 3 from 2pm. It should finish at about 8:20 this evening.

How did last month compare with the month before?

  • Pulled both months from the ledger
  • Compared revenue, costs and margin

Revenue was up 8% and costs were flat, so margin improved by about two points. Repeat orders made the difference. Want it broken down by customer?

Example conversations. Yours would use your own data and rules.

The right access for the right people.

The assistant and the MCP connection follow the same permissions as the rest of your system.

  • Directors

    Everything, including the financials

  • Managers

    Their team's jobs, rotas and approvals

  • Staff

    Their own leave, timesheets and tasks

  • Your AI tools

    Connected through MCP, with the limits of whoever is using them

05How it works

Start with one job.

No big-bang transformation project. We prove it on one painful job, then keep going for as long as it keeps paying off.

  1. First

    A free 20-minute call

    Tell us about the job that eats the most time. We'll give you an honest view of what's worth automating and what isn't.

    You leave with a short action plan, yours to keep either way.

  2. Then

    One job, at a fixed price

    We build the first automation or tool against a scope and price agreed in writing, and you see working software early.

    One slow job, gone.

  3. Next

    The system around it

    Once the first job is paying its way, we connect the rest: the dashboards, the staff portal, the assistant and the MCP server.

  4. After that

    Keep improving

    A monthly arrangement to tune what's there and take on the next job as your business changes.

06How we work

Built to be trusted with real work.

Putting AI near your orders, your money and your people only works if you can trust it. These are the rules we build to.

  • People approve what matters

    The AI drafts, prepares and suggests. Anything that spends money, talks to a customer or can't be undone waits for a person to say yes.

  • One person owns your project

    The same operator takes you from the first call to the live system. No hand-offs and no account managers in between.

  • Agreed in writing first

    Scope, price and how we'll measure success are fixed before any build starts.

  • We run on this ourselves

    Bay 10 runs on software we built: a knowledge platform that remembers every project and an operations system that coordinates our releases.

08FAQ

Questions, answered straight.

What does Bay 10 Digital do?

We build custom software with AI built in, for businesses that want manual work off their plate. That usually means automating a slow, repetitive job, building the system around it (an ERP, a dashboard or a staff portal) and adding an assistant that can answer questions and carry out tasks.

Do we need to know anything about AI?

No. You need to know your business and which jobs take too long. We handle the rest and explain it in plain English.

What is MCP, and do we need it?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard way for AI assistants to connect to other software. If your team already uses an AI assistant, an MCP server lets them work with your system from inside it, with the same permissions they have everywhere else. It's optional, and we'll tell you honestly if it isn't worth it for you.

We already have software. Do we have to replace it?

Usually not. Most of our work connects to what you already use and fills the gaps between systems. We only suggest replacing something when keeping it costs more than changing it.

What does it cost?

The first call is free. After that, the first build is a fixed price agreed in writing before work starts, and ongoing improvement is a monthly arrangement scoped to what you need.

How long does it take?

It depends on the job, and you get a timeline with the fixed quote. We deliberately start with one contained job so that you see working software early.

Who can see our data?

Access is set per person, and the assistant can only see and do what the person using it is allowed to. Before anything is built we agree where your data lives and which AI providers are involved.
