TurboKast Studio by TurboKast Ltd

TurboKast Studio › Business automation

Stop re-typing. Let the routine admin run itself.

For small firms of 3 to 50 people in Scotland, remotely anywhere and in person in Tayside and Fife. We automate the repeat jobs, such as enquiry forms, reminders, quote chasers and spreadsheet updates, at a fixed price.

Sound familiar?

The same details get typed in three times.

An enquiry arrives by email, goes into a spreadsheet, then into a quote.

We build: one form that logs the enquiry, replies to the customer and creates the record.

Chasing is done from memory.

Quotes, invoices and renewals only get a nudge when someone remembers.

We build: reminders and chasers that send themselves and list what is left for you.

The spreadsheet has become the system.

Several people edit it and nobody quite trusts it.

We build: a small web app for the office and for phones, with the data in your own accounts.

Not every job needs software. If a ready-made tool already does it, we say so on the call.

More situations to check on a first call

Enquiries in several inboxes

Web forms, email and phone messages each go to a different place, so nobody has the whole list.

Reports built by hand every month

Someone opens the spreadsheet, copies the numbers and builds the same report again.

Reminders that depend on one person

Renewals, certificates and follow-ups stop when that person is away.

Tools that do not talk to each other

The booking tool, the accounts and the spreadsheet each hold part of the picture, and someone moves data between them.

Where this comes from

We have not yet read the public websites of small firms across Scotland the way we did for trades, hospitality and clinics, so there is no survey behind this page. The situations here are common ones we would check on a first call, not findings. Treat them as questions to put to your own business.

What we would build

Found out on our first call, built around how your firm really works.

  • Forms that log and reply

    A web form that records each enquiry, replies to the customer straight away and tells the right person, with the details kept in a sheet or app you own.

  • Reminders and chasers

    Quotes, invoices, renewals and due dates generate a reminder or a nudge on their own, plus a short list for you of what is left.

  • Spreadsheet jobs that run themselves

    Totals, reports and updates that someone does by hand each week are done for you on a schedule.

  • AI agents for admin, with an approval step

    We also run a 90-minute remote session for £250 that sets up AI agents on your own accounts for two or three admin jobs, with an approval step before anything goes out.

If a ready-made tool or your existing software already does the job, use it and we will tell you so on the call.

Client work

A system we have built

Green Palm Dundee Landscaping, a firm of about seven staff, had jobs, the rota and quotes in three spreadsheets. We built one web app for the office and for crews on their phones, with invoices through QuickBooks. It is live. We are not publishing time-saved figures.

The package that fits

Fixed quotes, confirmed in writing before you commit. No per-user fees. The first call is free.

Fix One Thing
7 to 10 days
£249

A web form that logs each enquiry to a sheet you already use, emails you and replies to the customer.

Pay nothing until it works (jobs booked before 30 November 2026). Not live in 10 working days? You owe nothing (conditions apply).

Single-job tool
2 to 3 weeks
from £749

A reminder or chaser system, a quote calculator with follow-ups, or a spreadsheet job that runs itself.

A success criterion not met in the 30 days after go-live? We fix it or refund you (conditions apply).

Business hub
4 to 6 weeks
from £1,490 subject to written terms

Jobs, quotes, rota, bookings or orders and customer records in one connected system, with reminders running across them.

Paid in stages against milestones, with 90 days of free fixes after go-live.

First conversation

A 15-minute call or a coffee, then a written fixed quote. No obligation.

Care
£29 a month

Care, plus up to 2 hours of changes a month and a quarterly review. Cancel with 30 days’ notice.

Conditions and small print

Conditions apply to every refund or fix promise on this page. The clock pauses while we are waiting for something from you, and you have to claim within set windows. The conditions are in our written order terms (Scots law, for business customers only), which come with every quote; ask for a copy at any time. If this page differs from the terms, the terms win. Fix One Thing booked before 30 November 2026 is paid for only after it is live and working (invoice after go-live, payable within 7 days; if it does not work in the first 5 working days after go-live, we fix it or you owe nothing). After that date it is paid half to book and half when it is ready. Larger projects are paid in stages set out in the quote. Not VAT registered, so these prices are what you pay. Hosting and third-party fees are quoted up front.

If an accountant or bookkeeper introduced you, we may pay them 10% of the build price after you have paid in full. You do not pay it, your price is the same, and the quote names the introducer and the fee before you accept.

Questions people ask first

What does it cost?

Quick fixes to what you already have are from £99. Fix One Thing is £249. A single-job tool is from £749. A connected business hub is from £1,490, subject to written terms. All fixed price for the scope in the quote, and the first conversation is free.

The free first conversation is a 15-minute call, or a coffee if you are in Tayside or Fife. If a build makes sense, you then get a written fixed quote with a Scope and Success Criteria Schedule, at no charge. A quick fix is agreed in a one-paragraph written scope instead, and you pay after the job is done. There are no per-user fees. Hosting and third-party charges (email sending, payments, a domain) are paid by you or passed on at cost, and the quote lists them. We are not VAT registered, so the figure you see is the figure you pay. Conditions apply to every refund or fix promise: the clock pauses while we wait for you, and you must claim within set windows. They are set out in our written order terms, which come with every quote and which win over this page; ask us for a copy at any time.

Who owns the software, the code and the hosting?

You do. The code, the hosting and the domain are set up in your own accounts from day one, so we can never lock you out.

We are added to your accounts as a user, so nothing sits on our side that you cannot see or reach. When you have paid in full, and any refund window has ended, we assign you the rights we own in the custom code we wrote for you (clause 8 of our written order terms), with a signed assignation sent to you afterwards. We keep our own reusable components and licence them to you, and open-source parts keep their own licences. We build with AI coding assistants, and we do not promise that copyright exists in code an AI wrote. The terms set this out.

What if you disappear, or stop answering?

You are not stuck. Everything sits in your accounts, so any competent developer can take over without asking us.

We are one person, so we plan for that instead of promising it will not happen. Every build comes with a plain-English handover document (what it does, where it lives, how to restore it) kept in your repository, and a Business hub also gets a recorded walkthrough. We use mainstream, widely known tools rather than anything exotic. If Liam cannot continue, the written terms say you get everything in your accounts and a refund for work not yet delivered. We do not yet have a named backup developer. The optional care plan keeps backup checks and monitoring running, and you can end it with 30 days' notice.

What about data protection and privacy?

Your customer data stays in your own accounts, and we ask for the minimum access we need to do the work.

Where we handle personal data for you (for example on a care plan), you are the controller and we are your processor, under a written data-processing addendum. We build with AI coding assistants. We aim to build and test with made-up data and to keep your customers' and patients' records, passwords and secrets away from them, but we cannot promise that nothing personal is ever included, because the content you give us can contain names and contact details. If we find personal data has reached an AI tool, we tell you. If a fault can only be diagnosed with real data, we ask you in writing first. Only the people you choose can see your data.

Do you have professional indemnity insurance?

Yes. TurboKast Ltd holds professional indemnity and public liability insurance with Chiswell, through the broker Simply Business. Professional indemnity covers claims by clients about our work; public liability covers claims for injury or damage to property.

That includes mistakes in our work. The limit and the policy terms are given with every quote. It does not cover everything. We do not hold a separate cyber policy, so our own costs of responding to a data breach are not insured. If you need a higher limit, other cover, or to be named on our policy, tell us in writing before you accept a quote. If we cannot arrange it on reasonable terms, you can withdraw before work starts and we refund anything you have paid.

Is a ready-made app better for me?

Sometimes, and if so we will say so on the call.

If a ready-made tool or your existing software already does the job, use it: it will cost less. We are worth a call when your process has a twist that those tools handle badly, or when you would rather pay once than per user per month for ever.

Is this AI?

Mostly not. Most automation is ordinary software: a form, a rule, a reminder.

AI agents are one option, used where a person approves what they produce, and they are a separate £250 session. We also build with AI coding assistants, and our written terms say what that means for your data.

Do you work with firms outside Dundee?

Yes. We work remotely anywhere in Scotland and the UK, and offer a free coffee in Tayside or Fife.

The first conversation is a free 15-minute call either way.

You deal with Liam

TurboKast Studio is run by Liam Humphreys, in Dundee. We build with AI coding assistants, directed by Liam and checked by automated tests on every change, which is how we can quote fixed prices below typical agency rates. You deal with one person, not an account manager, and the terms say what happens if Liam cannot continue (we do not yet have a named backup developer).
