What it builds

- TrainingHubPractice calls built from real ones.
- PlanningAssistAnswers a planning question with the sources behind it.
- PlanningConsultChecks the planning constraints on a site from its postcode.
CallHub, TrainingHub and ProspectHub were built for our own sales teams. PlanningAssist and PlanningConsult are part of the Planning Handbook group. All of it was built for our own work first.

For other businesses
Agents and software that cut manual work
freestart.ai now takes on new AI work for other businesses, in any sector. If a process eats your team’s time, we’ll build the agents and software to take it on.
- Tell usTell us what you’re trying to fix.
- ScopeWe’ll map the process and say plainly what an agent can take on.
- Start smallWe’ll suggest a small first piece of work, then build from there.
We won’t promise numbers we haven’t measured on your work.
