Scoping
Understand before building. A diagnosis of your processes, with a concrete action plan.
- A map of your processes
- Automations ranked by impact
- A phased roadmap
- Credited against the build if you go ahead
Custom internal tools for growing companies
Your business grew faster than your tools.
We help growing companies replace spreadsheets and WhatsApp with simple tools their field teams actually use. Designed with you, around the way you already work.
3 weeksto put a first tool in your team’s hands
1 single toolinstead of scattered spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups
100% customdesigned with your team, around the way you work
Sound familiar?
It's not a people problem. It's a tools problem.
Your spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups got you this far: a sign your business has grown. At some point, they stop keeping up.
Three versions of the same file
“Nobody knows which one is up to date, and we rebuild the schedule every Monday.”
Information gets lost in chats
“Photos, reports, approvals: everything goes through WhatsApp, and we can never find anything.”
Hours of re-typing
“Reminders, reports, invoices: we enter the same information again every week.”

“Alex helped us build and improve our operational systems over two years. He understood our processes and translated them into practical workflows.”
“Anova keeps delivering tools that save us time and raise the quality of our service.”
Do we have to change everything at once?+
No. We start with the process that costs you the most time, deliver a first tool, then move forward brick by brick. Your current files are carried over, not thrown away.
Why start with scoping?+
You leave with an action plan, not a quote. Even if you do not continue with us, you know what to automate first. If you go ahead within 30 days, scoping is credited against the build.
Will our field teams actually use it?+
The tool is designed with them, around the way they work, and they are trained at delivery. It works on desktop and on mobile.
How long before a first result?+
A few weeks. We deliberately start small, with a first tool your team uses right away, then improve it based on their feedback.
Who owns the tool?+
You do, once the project is paid. You are free to keep working with us or to run it in-house.
