SMEs know AI can unlock value, but don't have the tools, time or governance to scope and deploy it. For a fund with 10 portfolio companies, the productivity gap across those businesses represents a material drag on exit multiples.
pivos addresses it systematically, not company by company.
Chat through the model and outcomes.
A fact-finding session with the executive to understand the business, workflows, data and company ambitions - this is what tailors the AI directors to the business.
We work alongside your team to connect your systems, integrations and data, and get everything set up properly. This is when we are most hands-on.
Agents run inside live operations, human-in-the-loop maintained through dedicated pivos portal.
Target checkpoints: measurable KPI’s to demonstrate profit enhancement targets on track.
pivos becomes how the business plans, reports and decides. Service touch tapers as playbooks compound.
Design principle: client data stays inside the client's environment - pivos agents come to the data; the data never comes to pivos.
A senior team works inside your business every month. That only works if you can trust us with what is behind it, so we protect your information by default and are plain about how.
Your data builds a private, encrypted memory used only to serve you, and your team gets sharper every month. It is never used to train external AI and never used for another client.
Encrypted in transit and at rest, on infrastructure certified to SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001 and ISO 42001. Only your account team can see your work.
You are the data controller. You can access, correct or delete your data at any time, and every decision stays with you.
ICO-registered, with a signed Data Processing Addendum covering pivos and our providers. We sign your DPA too.
pivos takes security extremely seriously.
It’s an asset not a risk.
Select the AI directors needed today and add more as trust builds - each covering a critical business function, with a managing director coordinating the output.
Clients start with the directors they need, then add more as trust builds - proving value fast, and deepening reliance on pivos.
Positions pivos above hires or consultants at a fraction of the cost. High service touch in months 1 to 6; from month 7, margin expands to SaaS level.
Every month, makes the service smarter, more efficient and harder to compete against.
Experienced people stay in charge. Our team uses real business expertise to direct the AI directors, check their work and sign it off, so every output is guided by human judgement.
This is the line between a tool and a team. The pivos specialists brief each other, hand work across, and settle it between them, then bring you the decision. Here is one basic example thread operated by 5 of our Directors.
Three deals worth £48k have stalled at proposal, all on price. @Rosa can we hold the price if we add the onboarding tier instead of discounting?
Yes. Margin holds at 61% with the tier. Discounting would cost about £7k in cash this quarter. Hold the price.
Agreed. Defend the price, lead with the onboarding value. @Priya rework the proposal, @Riley automate the follow-ups.
Proposal reworked and on-brand. Sent to the Managing Director to review before it reaches the client.
Connected the CRM and inbox and automated the follow-up, so nothing slips and the team stops re-keying data.
Revenue defended, margin protected, cash saved. One thread, no meeting, and not a minute of your time, with a human reviewing every output before action is taken.
Illustrative of how the team coordinates. AI-assisted, human-reviewed, and every decision stays with you.
Over the next few years, ambitious businesses will transform by embracing AI. This shift unlocks the financial and entrepreneurial headroom founders need to innovate, move faster, execute and scale with confidence.
pivos works alongside business owners to identify equity enhancing outcomes through a one-day scoping session.
pivos is being led by two experienced entrepreneurs who are leading the charge to support SMEs, Private Equity and VCs with a long-term AI-Strategy to drive equity value.
Built Wales’s largest independent insurance broker (14 acquisitions, exited 2008), then co-founded Veezu, consolidating ~20 acquisitions into the UK’s largest private-hire operator (exited 2018). Founder-operator of high-growth, acquisition-driven businesses. pivos is next. Leads scoping, sales and overall direction of the company.
Qualified accountant with 25+ years in private equity, venture capital, corporate finance and high-growth technology businesses. Leads business development and client scoping sessions, provides CFO support and ongoing Board advice on scaling, fundraising and exit.
pivos brings eight AI director functions together in one managed service, helping your business turn its priorities into practical action. We scope the opportunity, identify where AI can help, and support implementation through one dedicated portal.
With each request, pivos builds a deeper understanding of your business, helping the team deliver work aligned with your goals.
Together, we’ll define a growth strategy, identify the profit levers that matter most, agree on the measurable outcomes to drive long-term business value.
Meet the teamAI is not a dark art, it’s evolution, and you need to embrace it to survive. The question is how? The answer is pivos.
pivos delivers an equity enhancing solution delivering a long-term AI Strategy: not a quick fix AI plugin.
Straight answers on what pivos is, how we work with your business, what it costs, and how we keep your data private and secure.
pivos is a managed AI service for ambitious businesses. It brings together eight AI Directors across business functions, with one point of contact and work, focused on improving business outcomes. It’s not a plugin, it’s an agreed AI-STRATEGY for SMEs, with emphasis on identifying profit levers to drive equity value.
SME businesses and Private Equity/VC companies with portfolios of SMEs would engage pivos to deliver an AI Strategy to unlock growth.
Each AI Agent (director) has its own dedicated office to support the functions it specialises in.
pivos scopes every business in detail and works with the MD/CEO to determine what level of performance and complexity of AI is required to best serve the customer. The AI provider is chosen to fit the scope.
pivos is a managed service built around AI, not just access to an AI tool. With ChatGPT or another tool, your team asks questions and then owns the work of checking, joining up and acting on the answers.
pivos brings several business functions together, produces finished work and gives you one point of contact. All via a dedicated secure portal.
A 30-min introductory call is the first big step to embracing an AI strategy for your business. It’s a chance to hear about your business and how pivos can help.
pivos and you will agree an AI Strategy specifically tailored to your business ambitions and short, medium and long-term goals. This is agreed at the one-day scope meeting, necessary to agree strategic milestones and outcomes.
The experienced NED will lead an AI Strategy Day with the CEO/MD (and team if required) to determine how AI can support the business and senior team to deliver an ambitious growth plan, with emphasis on driving equity value.
None. Our Onboarding Team will ensure you are fully trained.
Initially we will prepare some information ahead of our 30-min introductory call, however the purpose of the one-day scope meeting is where most of the information is obtained to scope an AI-Strategy in readiness for the fully costed onboarding process.
They support work across all your business functions such as sales, marketing, finance, operations, compliance, HR and technology. The service is intended to deliver completed work, not just suggestions or a list of tasks for you to do. You engage the agents in relation to specific functions, and they compound in intelligence.
Nothing. We operate a “Human-in-the-Loop” system: AI Agents will prepare work, but a human must authorise its usage or external submission.
The AI agents operate like a “Human Board”. They exchange information, overseen by the AI Managing Director, to ensure the best outcome for your business.
Not at all, you can start with a few, but you will undoubtedly want more once your strategy becomes more embedded.
Like a human, all AI agents can make a mistake. That’s why a “Human-in-the-Loop” system is so key.
Every business is different, with different requirements and differing skill sets. As the strategy evolves some processes will become automated, where others will not.
To deliver on a fast-growth business, successful execution of allocated tasks is a must. What doesn’t get done doesn’t get delivered. The “Task Function” is an accessible feature to manage workflow efficiently while accessing agents, emails and calendar, amongst other chosen facilities.
Yes, this is the point. You can assign to one or all eight, which may be necessary on a large project, for example an acquisition.
You will be notified when work is completed, although most of the work is completed in seconds or minutes.
All software with API integration capability.
It will be simple and efficient, no different to any other third-party software you may use with API capability.
The integration work will be costed in the original scope, or a new order will follow if this request occurs later as a required add-on. You will pay for the subscription itself.
The purpose of the scoping meeting is to determine a profit enhancing strategy, how AI can strengthen the business and a fully costed scope based on agreed outcomes. Every business is different. pivos is not a fixed price AI plugin, it’s a long-term AI strategy to drive profit and equity value.
The 30-min call is free. The one-day strategy meeting with our NED is charged out at a one-off fee of £1,000 plus VAT. The onboarding cost and strategy delivery is ongoing and will evolve. Post the scope meeting you will receive a fully costed strategy based on what the business needs to scale.
You are investing in a fully immersive AI-Strategy, and with this comes all the support you need to deliver the strategy. You will have a dedicated “Account Manager” to look after you day-to-day, including access to our “Onboarding Team” and “Helpdesk”. You may require the ongoing services of the NED short-term, which can be costed too.
Yes. Like any strategy, you won’t call it right 100% of the time. As you engage AI with pivos, you will identify new opportunities with the time saved, a key strategic focus. The more you engage, the more opportunities will become apparent. Adapting the strategy as you grow is easy, it’s simply a case of agreeing a new order with pivos.
Yes, six months. There is a significant workload for our team to ensure you are onboarded and fully supported in delivering the agreed strategy.
We can offer a demo, which we would do at the scope meeting.
pivos uses attribute-based access control. You decide which users can read or edit which data, based on attributes such as role, team or data type.
All data is kept in a secure, private database unique to your company, and encrypted in storage and at rest. Your AI team asks for data from our data orchestration layer, which checks the human users’ permissions and prevents your human team from accessing data they don’t have permissions for. This enables your AI team to answer questions with information based on your human team’s seniority and permissions.
In a private, logically isolated database hosted by Amazon Web Services (AWS) in the UK.
Your data is stored in an encrypted, company-specific database on AWS. Independent third-party security experts test our platform, and we remediate the issues they find. Databases are backed up regularly to separate infrastructure, which reduces the risk of data loss from ransomware or accidental deletion.
Yes. Should you choose to cancel your account with us, we will delete all data we store. This includes deletion of any database environment within 14 days of contract termination, and data backups within 30 days.
When you interact with pivos agents, relevant data is sent to a large language model (LLM) from Anthropic or OpenAI so the agent can generate a response. Under our agreements with these providers, your data is not used to train their models and is not accessible in their public products. Agents run in an isolated environment, and only the data needed for each request is shared.
Managing Director
Nathan gives your business the senior strategic mind that usually only larger firms can afford. He turns a busy, reactive operation into a focused one: setting clear quarterly direction, pressure-testing the big decisions before you commit, prioritising ruthlessly, and keeping every other specialist pulling the same way. He is the steady head that tells you what to do next, and just as importantly, what to stop doing.
Finance Director
Rosa brings clarity to the numbers that decide whether your business thrives or just survives. She reads management accounts the way most people read headlines, turning spreadsheets into decisions: where the margin is leaking, which customers pay late, how much runway you really have, and which levers move cash fastest. She would rather tell you the uncomfortable number today than the catastrophic one later.
Sales Director
Daniel turns scattered sales activity into a pipeline that actually closes. He maps the journey your buyer really takes, finds the exact point where deals quietly die, and builds the follow-up that brings them back to life. He is direct, energetic and obsessed with the next step, because he believes most lost deals were not lost on price, they were lost to silence.
Tech Director
Riley keeps the technology behind your business quietly doing its job. He connects the tools you already use, automates the manual steps that eat into your team's week, and makes sure everything stays fast, secure and backed up. He treats every system as one question: is this saving you time or costing it? If it is costing you, he fixes it, and he keeps the whole stack simple enough that it never becomes a black box.
Marketing Director
Priya makes a small company look like a serious one. She has the eye that spots the misaligned logo from across the room and the restraint to fix it without fuss. She believes design is not decoration, it is trust made visible, and she holds everything to one standard: it does not leave the building unless it would sit comfortably next to the brands you admire.
Operations Director
Rachel gives you your week back. She watches how work moves through a business and sees, almost instantly, where it snags. She documents the messy process living in your head and hands it back as something anyone could run, and she is quietly radical about removing steps. She measures her work in hours returned to you.
Compliance Director
James gives you a calm, plain-English first read on the legal detail that slows businesses down. He reads the contract you are about to sign and tells you, without the Latin, what actually matters in it. He knows the line between what he can flag and when you genuinely need a solicitor in the room, and he will always tell you which is which.
HR Director
Maya strengthens your business by taking care of the people processes that quietly slow teams down. She has handled the awkward conversation, written the policy nobody wanted to write, and helped a founder make their first proper hire. She brings the calm of someone who has seen it before, and keeps the people side of a growing business from becoming the thing that breaks it.
Thirty minutes, no obligation. We map where senior work is going undone, show you the team that would take it on, and exactly how we would work your business. You will leave the call knowing precisely how we would work with you.

Messages you send to Nathan are processed through our infrastructure on Cloudflare and by our AI provider, Anthropic, to generate responses.
