AI Infrastructure Expert | AI Agents/Claude Code/Automation/Consulting

I'm Niall, founder of AINANU. We build AI systems that take the manual work out of running a business, and we run several of them in our own companies, not just for clients. AI OPERATING SYSTEMS (AIOS) Our flagship. An AIOS is one AI layer across your whole business instead of ten disconnected automations. It has four parts: - Playbooks: your processes written down once, in plain language - AI agents that follow the playbooks, make the judgement calls and handle exceptions - Tested tools that do the actual work: CRM updates, emails, bookings, reports - Shared memory, so every agent works from the same clients, pricing and history We start with one department, prove it works, then extend it across the business. Example: Sandra, the AI admin we built for Build DFD, a UK design and build firm. She reads the shared mailboxes, keeps every lead current in a custom CRM, drafts replies and books site visits. Each morning the director gets one plan with YES/NO buttons. Nothing reaches a client without a YES. AUTONOMOUS AI AGENTS We build with Claude Code and deploy agents on Claude and OpenAI that plan, use tools and finish multi-step work on their own: reading inboxes, processing documents, updating systems and producing reports. They act alone where it's safe and check with a person where it isn't. WORKFLOW AUTOMATION (n8n, Make, Zapier) We map your processes, remove the repetitive steps and connect your CRM, email, phones and ops tools so the right action fires at the right time. GoHighLevel, HubSpot, Airtable, Twilio, Microsoft 365. Every workflow has retries and error alerts, so nothing fails silently. Example: warranty and review automation for an Amazon seller running five stores, from customer sign-up through WhatsApp follow-up to review request. AI VOICE AGENTS (Vapi, Retell AI) 30+ voice agents deployed across healthcare, finance, solar and property. They answer inbound calls 24/7, book appointments, qualify leads and log every call in your CRM. We also build outbound calling tools, including a browser power dialer on Twilio. CUSTOM AI APPS AND CRMS When off-the-shelf tools don't fit, we build the app: custom CRMs, AI estimators, enquiry chatbots, lead generation engines and client portals. Next.js, Supabase and Python, with automated tests before anything ships. FREE AI AUDIT Not sure where to start? We map your operations for free, find where time and money are leaking, and give you a clear plan in priority order. If you build with us, we handle everything end to end. HOW WE WORK - Start with the task costing you the most and ship a working version in one to two weeks - AI for judgement, tested code for execution - Human approval on anything that touches a client or money - Full documentation at handover, so you're never locked in Systems that do the work. You stay in control.
