What does Kernow.ai actually do?

I build bespoke lead-generation systems for Cornwall businesses — AI front-desk assistants that capture and answer every enquiry so no job slips, plus the automation to match: quoting and certificate tools that turn paperwork around in minutes, and admin that runs itself. Built here in Cornwall, to a professional security standard.

What does "built the right way" mean?

Security by design, UK GDPR compliance, live error monitoring on the tools I build, proper access controls and validation. The same engineering standard a big firm would demand — applied to tools for Cornish businesses.

Can you help if I want to build my own AI tools?

Yes. AI-assisted building is getting easier, and more owners are doing it themselves. I offer straight-talking advice and security reviews so what you build doesn’t leak customer data or fall over — and I’ll tell you honestly when DIY is the right call.

How much does it cost?

Fixed, honest quotes before we start. Productised tools like the front-desk assistant are a set-up fee plus a small monthly. Bespoke automation is quoted per job. No meter running, no surprise invoices.

Are you actually in Cornwall?

Yes — I live and work here, with 40 years in the trades and construction before moving into software. Meet me, ring me. No ticket queue up-country.

Built for Cornish business.

Bespoke lead-generation systems for Cornwall trades and small businesses — capturing every enquiry, answering instantly in your voice, and turning quiet lists back into jobs. Not off-the-shelf: built around your business and trained on your own services, so it's smarter than the templated version. And once the work's won, automation handles the paperwork too.

Win the work — then do less admin doing it

You didn't start a business to miss enquiries

Enquiries missed while you're working

An AI front-desk assistant, trained on your own services, that answers in your voice and captures every lead — including the 8pm ones. Bespoke and built around your business, so it knows the job, not just a script.

Quotes that take all evening

Automated quoting tools built around your prices and your way of working. Out the door in minutes — first quote in usually wins the job.

Certificates & compliance paperwork

Speak it, and the certificate fills itself in — professional PDF, done before you've left the drive. Built for how trades actually work.

Admin that steals your week

Chasing, re-typing, copying between systems — automated away, so the same hours produce more work won.

Also on the menu — waking up dormant customers, chasing reviews and reputation, lead scoring. Built around your business when you need them; just ask.

Not a trade? If admin's eating your week, the same applies — cafés, clinics, holiday lets, agencies.

Built the right way

Security isn't an extra. It's the standard.

Every build ships with security by design, UK GDPR compliance, live fault monitoring, and proper access controls — the engineering standard big firms demand, applied to tools for Cornish businesses. No quick fixes, no shortcuts.

Building your own?

Good. Let's make sure it doesn't leak.

AI makes it easier than ever to build your own tools — and easier than ever to leave the door open on customer data. More Cornish businesses will build their own; the smart ones will build safely.

I advise on doing it right: security reviews of what you've built, straight answers on GDPR and the incoming AI rules, and honest guidance on when DIY works — and when it'll cost you more than it saves.
