Know what to automate — and prove it in their numbers.
Intellimate turns an automation conversation into a financial argument: what the change is worth, what doing nothing costs, what the alternatives are, and what actually happened afterwards. Every figure shows its basis.
That is why good automation proposals die. The spend is concrete and the saving is a promise, so the safe answer is to wait. Intellimate exists to put a number on waiting — and to make every other number in the case traceable enough to survive the meeting where it gets challenged.
What Intellimate produces
Not a report. The artefacts a decision actually needs.
A business case that shows its work
Every figure records what it rests on — a measured input, a stated assumption, or a benchmark — and is expressed as a range rather than a single confident-looking number. Finance can interrogate it instead of disbelieving it.
The cost of doing nothing
Quantifies the status quo across named cost drivers, not just recovered labour hours — then reconciles the original estimate against what was actually measured once the work shipped.
Options, not an ultimatum
Several priced scenarios on the table at once, so the decision is which one rather than whether. Buyers approve choices far more readily than they approve ultimatums.
Compared against hiring
The honest alternative is another person, so the model says so — with ramp time counted on both sides. It is the comparison the buyer was already making privately.
A proposal they can argue with
The reviewer opens it and changes the assumptions themselves, watching the return move. Opens are recorded, so silence is distinguishable from never having looked.
Estimates calibrated by evidence
Portfolio-wide reconciliation of what was promised at prospecting against what was measured at the end. Credibility compounds instead of decaying.
How it works
1 · Assess
Structured analysis of the processes — operational, technology and workforce — to find the candidates worth arguing for.
2 · Build the case
Value, cost of inaction, scenarios and alternatives assembled into one traceable model with every basis attached.
3 · Propose and decide
A live model the buyer interrogates, with engagement tracked, leading into implementation and measured outcomes.
Who runs it
Automation consultancies
Run assessments across every client from one workspace, under your own brand. The white-label identity belongs to the organisation, not to whoever happened to sign in.
Internal operations teams
Take a case to your own finance function in the form it expects — ranges, sources, and the cost of the status quo — instead of a deck of confident guesses.
Agencies adding an automation practice
A repeatable, sellable product on day one: assessment, business case, proposal and measured outcome, without inventing the methodology yourself.
