We help founders automate their startups

    Iterate on your product, not your SaaS stack

    Imagine a workplace where anyone can build the exact tools they need, automate boring business tasks, or squash annoying bugs. As software becomes cheaper, simpler, and universally customisable - traditional SaaS becomes obsolete.

    We help small teams achieve more by helping them automate their startups.

    Want to spend less time on startup admin?

    • Are you a small, ambitious team of <15?
    • Pre-seed/seed funded, bootstrapped and profitable, or about to enter an accelerator?
    • About to set up your business processes and are worried about losing valuable hours to manual ops work?

    We offer a customizable, AI chief of staff that automates tedious ops processes like filing invoices, onboarding new hires, requesting tax credits etc.

    We're currently looking for a small number of early adopters. If you're an AI-forward founder or operator looking to maximise productivity, join our high-touch design partner program - at no cost for a limited time only.

    Bonus: We'll embed an experienced founder directly into your Slack workspace to streamline your operations.

    What can we help with?

    Focus on shipping product - leave the operational details to us. Our AI Chief of Staff handles all of this and more; just @iterate in Slack.
