Sound familiar?
Your data is there.
The clarity isn't.
  • Your team spends hours every week pulling reports manually from spreadsheets and disconnected systems.
  • Leadership is making decisions based on gut feel — because the data is too hard to access quickly.
  • Your CRM, accounting software, and sales tools don't talk to each other — so nothing adds up.
  • Commission calculations take days, contain errors, and cause disputes your team doesn't have time for.
  • You know data could help the business grow — but you don't have a full-time data analyst on the payroll.
We built this exact solution for a 500+ rep direct sales organisation

Commission reporting took days and had errors nobody was catching. Reports lived in spreadsheets nobody trusted. Leadership had no real-time view of what the field team was actually doing.

We automated everything — and gave them 10 live executive dashboards. Commission reporting now takes under 5 minutes. Anomaly detection recovered £1,000/month in lost revenue.

What we do
Data capability,
without the full-time hire

We work with you on a project or retainer basis — so you get senior data expertise exactly when you need it.

Power BI dashboards
Executive dashboards that give leadership real-time visibility of sales performance, KPIs, and business health. Built to your data, delivered in days — not months.
Reporting automation
We eliminate the manual work. Reports that currently take your team hours every week — automated, accurate, and always up to date. No more spreadsheet wrangling.
Data pipeline development
Connect your systems — CRM, accounting software, APIs — into a single clean data flow that refreshes automatically. No more manual exports or copy-paste between tools.
Commission & incentive reporting
Automated commission calculations for sales teams — accurate, auditable, and delivered in minutes instead of days. Reduce disputes and free up finance time.
Lead segmentation & scoring
Build models that identify your highest-value prospects from thousands of leads — so your sales team focuses on the right conversations at the right time.
Data strategy for SMEs
Not sure what data you should be tracking — or how to use it? We audit your current reporting setup and build a practical roadmap that fits your team and budget.

Sales Performance Platform — Direct Sales Organisation (Anonymised)

A direct sales company managing 500+ field representatives across the UK had no real-time visibility of performance. Commission calculations took several days each month and contained errors that were causing team disputes. Leadership made strategic decisions without reliable data.

We built a complete BI platform — 10 executive Power BI dashboards covering sales performance, lead conversion, and operational KPIs. We automated commission reporting using Python and PostgreSQL, built a lead segmentation model processing 28,000 records per month, and developed an anomaly detection model to catch revenue leakage in real time.

UK Cost of Living Dashboard — Python ETL + Power BI

No accessible tool existed for professionals to compare real disposable income across UK cities — after accounting for rent, transport, and tax. The data existed across multiple ONS sources but had never been combined into a usable format.

We built a Python ETL pipeline ingesting live ONS salary and rent data across 10 cities, feeding a 3-page interactive Power BI dashboard with a real-time salary scenario planner — allowing anyone to input their salary and instantly see disposable income by city.

UK Data Jobs Market Analysis — Live API Pipeline + Power BI

No clear, data-driven picture existed of what the UK data job market actually looks like — salary ranges by role, geographic distribution of demand, and which companies are hiring most actively.

We built a Python ETL pipeline pulling live job listings from the Adzuna API, analysing 870 job listings across Data Analyst, BI Analyst, Data Engineer, and Data Scientist roles. A 3-page Power BI dashboard covers salary analysis, geographic mapping, and hiring trends — all from live, automated data.
