The Nerdster AI audit

Find the hours your
business is losing.

Ninety minutes with the founder. We map the repetitive work across your team, put a pound figure against each piece, and return a plan for what AI should — and shouldn’t — take on.

Smart people.
Repetitive work.

Every firm has work that shouldn’t need a human. Drafting, reconciling, chasing, filing, onboarding. It quietly fills the week, shows up on nobody’s timesheet, and costs more than anyone has counted.

Any firm where experts spend their days on repeatable work. Tell us the shape; we’ll map it.

Three things.
All of them yours.

No contracts. No NDAs to start. No obligation to work with us afterwards. If you do nothing with the document, you still leave ahead of where you came in.

01

A map of your week

Every repetitive task in your firm, named. Drafting, reconciling, chasing, onboarding, filing. The work that fills the diary without being noticed.

02

A pound figure per task

Hours it eats, at loaded cost, across how many people. So you can see where the money is going before choosing where to start.

03

A short plan

Which two or three tasks are worth automating first, what it would cost, how long it would take — and which ones we’d tell you to leave alone, with reasons.

No slides.
No demo.
Just your firm.

0–15m
How the firm runs today

Your practice areas, team shape, software stack, and where the pressure lands. Quick, structured, no assumptions.

15–60m
Workflow deep-dive

We walk through a real week. Where the hours go. Which are billed. Which are written off. Which are never logged at all.

60–75m
What AI can and can’t do here

Strong fits, partial wins, and the ones we’d tell you to leave alone. Named, with reasons, for your context.

75–90m
Priorities and next step

Where to start. What it would cost. Within 48 hours you get the written summary — yours, whether we work together or not.

You leave with the answer, not a pitch.

Within 48 hours of the audit you get a short PDF. It’s the document we’d want if we were sitting in your chair.

Every repetitive task we identified, ranked by hours saved, costed in pounds, with a plain-English call on whether AI is a good fit or not.

It’s yours. Keep it. Share it. Act on it with anyone. We only charge if you ask us to build. You’re never obliged.

Your data doesn’t
leave your firm.

If we build, we build on your side of the wall. Inside your office, or in a UK silo you own. Never on a shared model. Nothing trains on your client data. Nothing you can’t run yourself.

Where it runs

On your premises or in a dedicated UK silo. Your choice.

Training

Never on external models. Not once. Not ever.

Ownership

Yours. Keeps working if we vanish tomorrow.

Audit trail

Every prompt logged. Exportable for SRA, ICAEW or internal review.

Ninety minutes.
Free.

A focused session with the Nerdster team. Share a few details and we’ll confirm a time within one working day.

  • A written summary within 48 hours. Yours to keep.
  • On-site in London, or on Zoom. Your choice.
  • A clear recommendation — or a clear no. Both useful.
A few quick details

Thirty seconds. We’ll be in touch within one working day.

Your details stay with us. No CRM sync. No ad pixels. Nothing resold, ever.

The questions we
actually get.

Is it really free? What’s the catch?

No catch. Ninety minutes of our time for ninety minutes of yours. Most audits don’t become projects — the ones that do pay for the rest. If we’re not a fit, you still walk away with the map.

We’re a small team. Is this still worth it?

Yes. Small firms feel the hours most sharply because there’s nowhere to hide them. A boutique of five often recovers a full working day a week from the audit alone.

We’re a bigger firm with an IT team. Do you still fit?

Yes. We work alongside internal IT, not around them. The audit is compatible with most stacks and we often hand the final plan to an internal ops lead to execute.

Will you try to sell me something on the call?

No. The call is for mapping and honesty. If there’s a good project in it, we quote by email after you’ve read the summary. You can ignore the quote. You can take the summary to anyone else.

What if we just want the list and don’t want to build anything?

That’s fine. About a third of audits end there. Some firms take the list and work through it themselves. We’re not offended.

Do you sign NDAs?

Gladly. Send yours before the call and we’ll sign by return. If you don’t have one, we have a one-page version you can use.

The document is the product.

Every repetitive task in your firm, ranked, costed in pounds, with a plain-English call on what AI fits and what it doesn’t.

Act on it with us. Act on it alone. Hand it to somebody else. It’s yours, either way.

We charge when you ask us to build — not before, and never for the audit itself.
