Don't take my word for it

I was spending hours every week pulling data out of supplier invoices by hand just to keep track of my costs. Henno built me an invoice extractor that does it all automatically — I just upload the PDF and the numbers land in my spreadsheet. It's saved me a massive headache and I actually know my margins now.

The result of the work performed by Henno speaks for itself. The difference in our overall optimization, the tools we use and our ability to remain optimized through the automation strategies provided have been exceptional. Will be using Henno on future projects.

You're spending your day on work that doesn't grow your business

Most business owners lose hours every day on tasks that follow the same pattern over and over. Here's what that usually looks like.

📬

Answering the same emails and messages

Your inbox is full of questions you've answered a hundred times. Every reply takes a few minutes, but they add up to hours.

📋

Chasing follow-ups and reminders

Leads slip through the cracks, invoices go unsent, and clients don't hear back because nobody had time to follow up.

🔄

Moving data between systems

Copy-pasting from your CRM to a spreadsheet to an email. Manually updating records across three different platforms.

📅

Scheduling and coordination

Back-and-forth booking, rescheduling, sending reminders, coordinating your team's calendar. All of it manual.

From manual to autopilot in three steps

No complex proposals. No six-month timelines. Just a clear process that gets you results fast.

Hey, I'm Henno

I've spent over a decade in tech, the last few years focused entirely on AI and automation for small businesses. I've seen what works, what doesn't, and where the real time savings are hiding.

Now I focus on one thing: helping small business owners stop doing work that machines should be doing. I combine AI, automation, and a deep understanding of how businesses actually operate to build systems that save real time and real money.

I'm based in Cape Town and work hands-on with local businesses. I don't send you a PDF and disappear. I embed myself in your operations, find the bottlenecks, and build the solution.

Things people usually ask

Not at all. I handle everything on the technical side. You just tell me how your business works and what's eating up your time. I build systems that are simple for you and your team to use.
I spend a full working day at your business, observing your team's workflows, asking questions, and mapping out every process that could be automated. At the end, you get a detailed blueprint document that lays out exactly what to automate, how it would work, and the time and cost savings you'd see.
The audit call is completely free. The Shadow Day and implementation depend on the size and complexity of your business — I'll give you a clear quote after the audit once I understand your situation. No surprises. Most clients see a return on their investment within the first month.
Most automations go live within 2-4 weeks of starting the build. Some quick wins from the audit can be implemented even sooner. You start saving time from day one.
Great, that makes things easier. The automations I build connect to the tools you already use. I'm not replacing your existing systems, I'm making them work together so things happen automatically instead of manually.
Yes. After the build, I offer monthly retainer packages for ongoing optimization, monitoring, and building new automations as your business evolves. But there's no lock-in. Everything I build, you own.
