Services
Two things, done properly.
Websites built to earn their keep, and automation that takes the admin off you. Nothing sold that a spreadsheet could do instead.
Website design & development
Design, build and launch: mobile-first, quick to load, easy to update, and findable on Google. From a straightforward three-page site to full booking and payment systems.
AI & agentic systems
Chatbots, agents and automated workflows — invoice chasing, lead follow-up, booking admin. Built to stop at a human approval before anything goes out, and only where it genuinely saves you time. In the site builds themselves, AI stays a tool for finding bugs faster, never a substitute for building the thing properly.

Registered charities get 20% off. Give us your charity number when you enquire — we check it on the Charity Commission register, and the discount comes off the written quote. It applies to the build; care plans stay at the standard monthly rate.
Every project starts with a short discovery call. Pricing is a guide — every quote is confirmed in writing before work begins.
A higher Custom tier — online payments, booking systems, member areas, AI-powered features — is on pause while the portfolio builds out, and will return once there’s a track record to back the price. Need something in that territory now? Get in touch anyway.

Examples of what’s possible
Five styles, five example builds.
These are illustrative examples, not client work — fictional businesses built to show what each style looks like done properly. The real client project is the football association site further down.
Plain & minimal
Marlowe & Reed
Professional services — typography-led, generous whitespace.
Blog & content
The Slow Hour
Editorial brand — article grid, read times, print-style hierarchy.
Photo-heavy
Verity Bloom
Florist & studio — full-bleed imagery and a masonry gallery.
Interactive & 3D
Nocturne Collective
Events brand — depth, gradient light, motion-led layout.
Booking & calendar
Ashgrove Clinic
Appointment booking — date picker, live slots, responsive down to mobile.
Example workflows we build
Automation that stops and asks.
The admin gets done up to the point where judgement is needed — then it waits for you. Nothing goes out to a client, a customer or the internet without a person saying yes first.
Enquiry to booked call
Runs unattended — nothing leaves your hands but a diary invite.
- Enquiry arrives
- Qualified against your criteria
- Call booked in your calendar
Chasing an overdue invoice
The chaser is written for you. Sending it stays your call.
- Invoice goes overdue
- Reminder drafted in your tone
- You approve
- Sent
Turning an idea into a post
Drafting is the slow part. Publishing is the part you keep.
- Idea captured
- Post drafted
- You approve
- Published
Keeping the pipeline warm
Notes written automatically; the follow-up waits for you.
- New lead lands
- Pipeline note written
- Follow-up drafted when due
- You send
Answering a customer question
Context pulled together, reply ready — you press send.
- Question comes in
- Reply drafted with their history
- You approve
- Sent
Quoting a job from a photo
A rough starting figure, not a measured price — you set the real one.
- Customer sends a photo
- A rough estimate is drafted
- You check and adjust it
- Quote sent
Illustrative examples of the kind of thing we build — not client systems, and no client names.
How we work
A straight line from call to launch.
Five steps, each agreed in writing before the next begins. No surprises is the whole point.
01
Discovery call
A short, free conversation about what you're trying to do. Straight answers — and if you don't need us, we'll say so.
02
Proposal & deposit
A written proposal with scope, timeline and a fixed quote, confirmed before any work begins. Work starts on a 50% deposit.
03
Build
Design and development with progress you can actually see — no big reveal at the end. Timelines hold as long as content arrives on time.
04
Revisions
Two full rounds of revisions are included in the price. Anything beyond that is quoted and agreed in writing first, never billed as a surprise.
05
Handover
The balance is due on completion, then the site and its code are yours outright. Build bugs are fixed free for 10 days; after that it's covered by your care plan, or quoted if you don't have one.
After launch
A website is a relationship, not a transaction.
Sites need hosting, security updates, and a person who answers when something breaks — ideally the person who built it. Two simple plans, whenever you're ready.
Essential
£25 – £40 /mo
The site stays up, safe and backed up.
- Hosting on managed, secure infrastructure
- SSL certificate maintained and renewed
- Automated, versioned backups
- Uptime monitoring with alerts
- Security patches and dependency updates
Managed
£60 – £90 /mo
Everything in Essential, plus a pair of hands each month.
- Everything in Essential
- Up to 1 hour/month of content updates — text, images, prices
- Priority support with 48-hour response
Rolling monthly — cancel with 30 days’ notice, and if you leave, we help move the site with you. Response within 24–48 hours on business days; genuine emergencies jump the queue.
Selected work
Recently designed and built.
Client projects and example builds, each labelled for what it is — content-led, fast, and built so the business can run it themselves.
Barbershop, menu & booking
A dark, price-forward site built around the one thing walk-ins actually want: the menu, and a button to book it.
Beauty salon, Manchester
Warm, editorial and review-led — built to convert local search traffic into phone calls and bookings.
A third project — a full rebuild for a grassroots football association charity — is in build, with fixtures, news and a foundation for online bookings run by volunteers.
About
One consultant. The whole job.
Athos Intelligence Consultancy is a solo practice, based in Deeside — deliberately. The person who scopes your project is the person who designs it, builds it, and answers the phone when you call six months later. No hand-offs, no account managers, nothing lost in translation.
The background is hands-on web development paired with a genuine interest in agentic AI systems — the kind of thing most local web design freelancers aren’t spending their evenings on.
Named after the mountain. Modelled on the kri-kri — the Cretan ibex that treats cliff faces as footpaths. Sure-footed beats flashy, on rock and on the web.
