01
We measure, not guess
Every recurring job gets a time cost, a frequency and a fully loaded hourly rate, so "chasing invoices" becomes "£640 a month". Decisions get easier when the numbers are on the table.
AI roadmap
Know exactly where AI pays back first.
Two weeks with your team. We map every repeatable job in the business, put an hours-and-pounds figure on each, and hand you a 90-day plan for what to automate first, what to do later, and what to leave alone.
Most businesses start in the wrong place.
They automate what's visible rather than what's expensive, or they buy a tool before they know the job. A roadmap fixes the order.
02
We score effort as well as value
Some jobs are worth a lot but sit on messy data or awkward systems. Each one is scored for how hard it is to automate well, so the plan starts with the quick, high-value wins.
03
We say what to leave alone
Some jobs should stay with people: the ones that need judgement, a relationship or a signature. The roadmap names them so nobody wastes money trying.
The scoring, on one page.
Every job, plotted.
Value on one axis, ease on the other. The top-right corner is where your first agents go. The bottom-left stays human, and we say so in writing.
- Do first: high value, easy to automate. Usually the phone, the inbox and the invoicing.
- Plan for later: valuable but harder. Often needs a system tidied up first; the plan says what.
- Quick, small wins: cheap to do, worth doing once the big ones are live.
- Leave alone: low value or needs judgement. Named so no one spends money here.
Two weeks, start to finish.
Days 1 to 3
Listen
An hour with each team, and a short time diary for the week. We're looking for the jobs people do on autopilot, because those are the ones nobody mentions.
Days 4 to 6
Map and measure
Each job is written up as a workflow with its systems, handoffs and failure points, then costed in hours a month and pounds a year.
Days 7 to 8
Score and sequence
Value against ease for every job, with a first draft of the order we'd tackle them in and what each step would need.
Days 9 to 10
Walk it through
A 60-minute session with the owner and managers, the written plan, and a straight answer on what we'd do if it were our business.

Questions people ask
How much of my team's time does it take?
About six hours in total across the business: an hour per team for the interviews, a light time diary that takes a few minutes a day, and the walkthrough at the end.
Do we have to use Blott to build what's in the plan?
No. The plan is written so any competent provider, or your own team, can act on it. It names jobs, systems and order, not our products. Many clients do go on to build with us.
What if the answer is "don't automate anything yet"?
Then that's what the plan says, with the reasons and the things to fix first. It happens more often than you'd think, usually where the underlying data or process isn't ready.
Is this the same as an AI audit?
Yes, same product. Some clients call it an audit, others a roadmap. Same two weeks, same output.
Can you do it for a multi-site business?
Yes. We interview each site or team separately and show where the jobs are the same and where they differ, which is usually the most useful page in the document.
