Paphos, Cyprus

We run businesses on software and AI. With a fraction of the hours.

Our own business proves it. Pafos Chef, a meal-prep and delivery company in Paphos, is operated end to end by one person and a cook: orders, payments, kitchen planning, delivery routes, invoicing and customer replies. We build and run the same kind of setup for other businesses.

What runs Pafos Chef

A back office made of agents.

Every part of the business that usually needs a person at a desk is watched by software. Agents do the watching and the first draft. A person makes the call, usually from their phone.

runs itself

Orders & payments

Customers order and pay online. The week's orders become the kitchen's prep sheet and the driver's route without anyone retyping them.

AI · hourly

Receipts & invoices

Every card payment comes in from the bank each hour. AI reads the receipt, files it and matches each line to an ingredient or a category.

ledger

Suppliers & prices

One record of suppliers and ingredient prices, built from real invoices. Every dish is costed on what we actually pay.

agent · weekly

Cost & margin loop

Agents check each dish's cost against its price, flag what is drifting and propose the fix: a reprice, a recipe change, a different supplier.

AI · human approves

Customer inbox

AI drafts a reply to every customer message with their order history in view. A person reads it and taps send.

monthly

Books & reconciliation

Bank, receipts and issued invoices are matched automatically. Month-end comes from the bank feed, not a shoebox of paper.

What we do

Three things, done by the same people.

No handoffs between a dev shop, an IT vendor and a consultant. The engineer who designs the system is the one who keeps it running.

Software

Web platforms, APIs, mobile apps and the integrations between them. Built for years of operation, not for a demo.

Operations

We run what we build: hosting, monitoring, and the agents that watch your costs, invoices, suppliers and inbox. We can take over what you already have, too.

Consultancy

We map how work actually flows through your business, like quoting, ordering and invoicing, and show you where software and AI take the hours out. Honest about what isn't worth automating.

In practice

What this looks like in your business.

Most of it is not glamorous. It saves somebody an hour a day.

Quotes in minutes, not daysGive it the job details. It prices the job from your own costs and rates and sends back a branded PDF quote, ready to check and send.
Customers order or book onlineand it all lands in one place, not across WhatsApp, email and a notebook.
Admin that runs itselfInvoices go out, receipts get filed, reminders and follow-ups send on their own.
An assistant for the repeat questionsAI drafts answers to the twenty questions your team answers every week. A person still approves them.
A morning brief on your phoneWhat came in, what is late, what needs you today. One message, not five dashboards.
Costs you can see as they happenSupplier invoices and card spend feed your margins automatically, not a spreadsheet someone updates at month-end.
