Data pipelines
Move data between the systems you already own on a schedule, with the transformation written down, failures that announce themselves, and a record of every run.
| Who buys it | Firms whose answers are spread across systems that do not talk, and who currently reconcile them by hand once a month. |
|---|---|
| The job | Move data between the systems you already own on a schedule, with the transformation written down, failures that announce themselves, and a record of every run. |
| What stays human | What the numbers mean. A pipeline that silently produces a wrong figure is worse than no pipeline, so every run is checkable and every failure is loud. |
| Pricing shape | Fixed fee to build, flat monthly to run and watch. Never per row or per record. |
| The system behind it | None of ours yet. It is built on your systems and the model provider’s, and saying otherwise would imply a platform we have not written. |
Before you buy it
If your reconciliation is monthly and takes an afternoon, the arithmetic probably does not support this. Say so and we will agree.
And the general test, which applies to this offer as much as any other: six questions that settle whether a task should be automated at all. Five of its eight verdicts are some form of no.

Checked 8 September 2026. Any figure on this page is restated from What to automate first in an advice firm — and what to never automate, In a regulated firm, the audit trail is the product, where it carries its source, its weight and the date it is next due — and where it is listed on the public register with every other number on this site. Nothing is quoted here that is not sourced there. If one has gone stale before we got to it, tell us.
One job, named.
Not “automate the back office”. The specific thing that is eating the hours, with the six audit records written into the statement of work before anything is built.
