Hello, I’m Benjamin.
I’m a final year Maths student at the University of Edinburgh, and I build AI automation for small businesses across the North East.
Where I learned this.
This summer I worked as an AI and Data intern at Rathbones, the wealth management firm. My project was migrating a legacy server to the cloud, using AI tools to do in weeks what would normally have taken a great deal longer. Working inside a regulated financial firm teaches you something specific: things have to be right, they have to be documented, and nobody is impressed by clever if it is fragile.
What I have built.
An AI trading bot for Bitcoin. A website for a wrestling gym. A set of AI agents and workflows that run a good part of my own working day. I have also helped accountancy firms put AI and agents into the way they actually work, which is where I learned that the hard part is never the technology, it is understanding what somebody’s Tuesday actually looks like.
Why small businesses.
The firms with the biggest budgets are already using this, and they are going to get faster and cheaper because of it. I would rather the independent businesses of the North East were not the ones who lose out simply because nobody made this affordable at their size. That is the whole reason Nightshift exists.
How I work.
A fixed price agreed in writing before anything starts, so you know what it costs and when it is finished before I begin. I will not sell you something you do not need, and I will not start a project that grows.
