AI and Automation for SMEs is YARD AI Agency's service that designs and ships AI-powered workflow automations for small and mid-sized businesses using Make.com, n8n, Claude, and MCP servers. It targets the repetitive work that quietly consumes 60+ hours a week — lead routing, reporting, content operations, follow-ups — and replaces it with monitored automations wired into the tools your team already uses, typically paying for itself within the first quarter.
The vast majority of AI projects sold to SMEs are demos in disguise. Our AI and Automation engagement is the opposite shape: we audit the actual workflow, find the two or three places automation produces a real hour-saving outcome, and ship integrated AI assistants and automated workflows against those specific points — wired into the tools the team already uses.
AI and Automation engagements are scoped to the audit outcome — number of workflows automated, number of AI assistants shipped, and integration complexity. Typical engagements start with a fixed-fee audit, followed by a build retainer indexed to scope. Reach out for a scoped quote.

Make.com and n8n for orchestration, Claude for reasoning-heavy steps, and MCP servers to connect ad platforms, CRMs, sheets, and messaging apps. We pick the stack per workflow — and you own every account and credential we set up.
The workflow audit takes about a week; the first automation usually ships within two to three weeks. We prioritise the two or three workflows where the saved hours are largest, then expand once those are stable.
No. Every build ships with monitoring, error alerts, and a plain-English runbook. Most clients run on a light maintenance retainer — nothing breaks silently.
