Neil at work

Neil doesn't just find things. Neil gets them done.

Filing, follow-ups, reminders and first drafts: the routine that fills your team's week. Neil takes it on, with the same respect for permissions, and you decide exactly what Neil may do.

Read the film's words

Every week, the same work comes round. Files to save. Forms to chase. Dates to remember. Important work, and nobody's favourite job.

Neil doesn't just find things. Neil gets them done. Neil works in your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, with its own address, and the same respect for permissions as everyone else.

A signed contract arrives by email. Neil saves it in the right folder, under a name everyone can find.

Timesheets due on Friday? Neil sends polite reminders until they arrive, and tells the manager who is still missing.

Neil reads your signed contracts, notes the notice dates, and reminds the owner in good time. When a supplier's certificate expires, Neil asks for the new one.

For anything that goes to a customer, Neil prepares the first draft. A person checks it before it is sent. You decide which tasks need that check.

Getting started asks very little of you. Answer a short questionnaire with our team. We set Neil up, and show you exactly what it will do. You test it on your own examples, and sign off when you are happy. Then Neil starts work. Every run is recorded, and we look after it. Light on your IT team, at every step.

Each Neil holds one seat and does several tasks a day, like any colleague. When the work grows, add another Neil. Which routine job would you hand to Neil first?

Six tasks to start with

The routine every company knows, handed to Neil.

In the order we would start, each a little harder than the last.

Inside your company
With your suppliers
With your customers
1Filing what arrivesA signed contract, invoice or certificate arrives by email. Neil saves it in the right folder, under a name everyone can find.
2Chasing the missingTimesheets, expense receipts and signed forms: polite reminders until they arrive, then a note to the manager.
3New starter packBefore a new person's first morning, Neil gathers the procedures, contacts and first-week checklist for their role.
4Supplier documents on fileNeil notices when a supplier's insurance certificate or price list has expired, and asks for the new one.
5Contract renewal watchNeil reads your signed contracts, notes renewal and notice dates, and reminds the owner in good time.
6First draft of a quoteFrom the current price list and the customer's past orders, Neil prepares a quote for someone to check and send.

These are only examples. Neil can be set up for the routine tasks and workflows your own company runs.

Why this order

Each step reaches a little further, once the last has earned your trust.

Inside first

Filing, reminders to colleagues and starter packs. Nothing leaves the company, and if something is not quite right, it is cheap to spot and easy to fix.

Then your suppliers

Expired certificates and renewal dates. Neil deals with people outside about routine matters, from records you already rely on.

Then your customers

Quotes carry the highest stakes, so a person checks every draft before it is sent.

One Neil, many tasks

Like any colleague, one Neil does several jobs a day.

Filing in the morning, chasing timesheets in the afternoon, a renewal reminder when one falls due. Each Neil holds one seat and carries a handful of tasks, sized so there is always room to spare.

When the work grows, add another Neil, just as you would hire.

Questions people ask

Safe, defined, and yours to decide.

Is Neil an AI agent?

It's what many people call one: software that carries out tasks, not only answers questions. Neil's tasks are defined with you, tested on your own examples, and switched on only when you sign off.

Is it safe to let AI send emails on our behalf?

You decide which tasks Neil may carry out alone and which need a person's approval first. Neil works only within the task you agreed, and nothing else.

Who is responsible if a task goes wrong?

Every task is one you defined and approved, and everything Neil does is recorded. If something looks wrong, you can see exactly what happened, and AskNeil is there to put it right.

What does Neil need access to?

Only what you grant for each task, on top of the permissions you already have. Nothing more, and you can see the list at any time.

What does a Neil cost?

Each Neil holds a seat, like a member of staff, starting on the Blue plan at CAD 99 a month, and carries several tasks. Setting up a task has a one-off fee and a timeline, both agreed with you before any work starts. See pricing

Can Neil have an email address?

Yes. Neil can work as a member of your team, with a dedicated address your colleagues and suppliers can write to.

Can Neil prepare our weekly reports?

Yes. Neil gathers the figures from your records, writes each section with its sources, and produces the report in your own template, as a Word, PDF or Excel file. For a report that goes to other people, a person approves it before it is sent.

What if one Neil gets too busy?

Add another Neil, just as you would hire. Each Neil is sized with room to spare, and we tell you well before one is full.
