For owner-run businesses in Surrey
I have spent ten years designing and building systems for large companies. Typemono is where I use that experience to help local businesses with between one and thirty people. Each project is a two-week sprint at a fixed price, and it ends with one working fix rather than a report.
Most small businesses run on WhatsApp, a few spreadsheets and the owner's memory. That works until it does not. The software on offer is usually either too simple to be useful or built for companies with hundreds of staff. The sprint is a way to find the slow, manual part of your business and replace one piece of it with something that works properly.
I spend two half-days with you and your team. I follow how work moves through the business and note where it slows down or stops. By the second day I will tell you which one thing is worth fixing. If I do not find anything that would pay for itself, I will say so, and you will not be charged.
I build the fix. It might be a quote page that your customers can accept on their phone, a document that is written from your notes automatically, or a reminder that chases an unpaid invoice for you. Whatever it is, you will see it working before the two weeks are up.
Most fixes need somewhere to live. I can host and support what I build for a small monthly fee, so you do not have to think about it. If you would rather run it yourself, you can. The work belongs to you either way.
Book a 20-minute call and I will tell you honestly whether a sprint would pay for itself.
If I cannot describe the problem in a single sentence, I will not start the work. Keeping the scope small is what allows me to fix the price and still finish it well.
Everything I build is designed to work on a phone before it works on a desktop. Your customers should not need to log in, and your staff should not need to read a manual.
Ten years of enterprise delivery has shown me where systems tend to break. I keep the discipline that prevents those problems and leave out the meetings and paperwork that come with it.
The standard
Nothing leaves until it works on your worst day.
I spend time on the parts most small-business tools skip: clear error messages, sensible behaviour when there is no data yet, and what happens when the internet drops in the van. That care is what makes a fixed price possible.

These first projects were done without charge while I worked out the method. The sprint is the same work with a price on it.

I am a technology advisor at a large consultancy.
Over the past ten years I have designed and built cloud, data and AI systems for banks, media companies and retailers. I live in Woking, and I would like to use that experience for the businesses I walk past every day, not only for companies that already have large technology budgets.
Typemono is just me. There is no account manager and no team you have not met. The person you speak to on the first call is the person who builds the fix and supports it afterwards.
The day job
Client advisory and applied AI at a large UK consultancy.
Financial services, media, retail and insurance.
Cloud, data and AI systems that I designed and built, not only advised on.
Try a fix for yourself. Each demo is a working example of what a sprint builds, with made-up details. Open one on your phone: that is where your customers will use it.
A quote your customer opens from a WhatsApp link, reads on their phone and accepts in one tap, with the deposit paid at the same time. Try it as the customer, then see what the owner gets.
Every enquiry from Instagram, missed calls and the web form in one list, sorted, with a reply drafted for you.
A checklist page your client uploads their paperwork to from a phone. Each document is read and ticked off for you.
A head-to-head map quiz that I build in my own time. It keeps my skills current.

A comparison spreadsheet with a research assistant layered on top: products are columns, the factors you care about are rows, and the ranking shows its working instead of inventing a score.
A dashboard that puts my household's Monzo and credit card spending in one place, by month and by category. It is private, so there is no link, and the screenshot uses made-up numbers.
If you would like something similar for your business, such as a booking flow, a customer app or a loyalty page, that is a sprint too.
Tell me how work moves through your business. I will tell you whether a sprint would pay for itself and, if it would not, what I would do instead.
There is no newsletter and no follow-up sequence. You will get one email after the call.
