Talk to us
A 30-minute call. You tell us what eats your week. We tell you what we'd do about it.
Audit
We map how work moves through your business and which tools touch it. You get a written plan and a fixed quote for the build.
Build
We set up, connect and automate. Your data stays in your own accounts and you hold admin access to everything.
Run
We keep it running, train the team and adjust as the business changes. No tiers to pick and no long contract.
Things we built for ourselves, then shipped.
We use the same kinds of tools we set up for clients. Each one started as a fix for a problem in our own week.
A 3-week audit that finds the savings in how a small business runs.

What does Aretebase actually do?
We are an IT and AI consultancy for small businesses. We audit your tools, set up the ones you need, connect them, build agents and automations on top, and train your team. Then we keep it running.
Who is this for?
Owners and small teams with no IT department and no wish to become one. Consultants, agencies, trades, clinics, wholesalers, shops. If your business runs on a laptop and a dozen subscriptions, this is for you.
What does it cost?
It depends on how far behind you are, so there's no price list. You get a fixed price after the free call. No long contract.
