Hidden waste
20–40% of payroll is non-contractual work
People are busy but not bound to measurable obligations. Meetings, status reports and “just in case” work quietly inflate your cost base.
Your customers are funding this without knowing.
New
AI that removes operational inflation, not just people.
Bring your operating costs back to sanity.
Operations X-Ray turns your company’s chaos into governed contracts. We expose hidden waste, rebuild obligations, and give AI the job of enforcing fairness between value and price.

X-Ray
20–40% payroll & process waste identified
“The first company to remove its self-inflicted inflation wins the next decade.”
The problem
Your customers aren’t paying for value. They’re paying for chaos.
The world feels it at the checkout: £10 soup, £50 burrito bowls, £30 “fast food”. Behind it is self-inflicted operational inflation — waste, unclear obligations, and failed automation.
Broken contracts
Value-to-price relationship has snapped
Prices rise faster than service quality, while staff and systems are not governed by clear success conditions. The contract with the customer silently fails.
We make those contracts explicit again.
Misused AI
AI used as a toy, not a governor
Chatbots, automation and dashboards float on top of the mess instead of restructuring it. You automate noise instead of enforcing obligations.
We give AI contracts, not vibes.
How it works
From chaos to governed contracts in four passes.
We don’t start with tools. We start with truth. Then we rewrite your company’s operating contracts and give AI the job of enforcing them.
No rip-and-replace
Integrates with your existing stack
Operator-first, not investor-only
1
Operational X-Ray
We map your organisation as contracts: between roles and outcomes, processes and SLAs, prices and actual value. This reveals where obligations are missing, duplicated or impossible to fulfill.
2
Contract Rebuild
Together we redesign roles, processes and pricing as explicit, measurable operating contracts. No more “common sense” expectations — just clear, enforceable obligations with consequences.
3
AI Governance Layer
We plug your contracts into our AI engine. Each contract becomes a monitored glyph: with inputs, outputs, deadlines and escalation. AI watches for drift, predicts failure and suggests repairs.
4
Ongoing Stewardship
As your business evolves, we maintain the contract system: adjusting obligations, adding or removing automations, and keeping the value-to-price relationship honest.
Physical anchor
The Operations X-Ray Node — your black box of truth.
A matte-black desk console that pulses with the real-time health of your operating contracts. Green: you’re fair. Amber: drift. Red: you’re charging people for chaos.
OX
Place it on the CEO’s desk or in the war room. When the Node glows amber or red, the next conversation is not “How do we sell more?” but “Which contract is failing?”
A governance appliance, not a gimmick.
The Node is a physical interface to your AI governance layer. One glance tells you if your value-to-price contract is intact. Pressing the button opens the truth view: a focused report of where your obligations are drifting and where self-inflicted inflation is creeping in.
Simulate Node state
Green — contracts aligned, operational inflation under control.
Ships as an optional governance node for Tier 3 & 4 clients.
Thin-client by default; full on-prem compute available for regulated environments.
