AutomateIn1Day's Managed AI Agent service gives UK small businesses a dedicated AI employee, built, hosted, monitored and improved every week by our team. The agent connects to email, WhatsApp, calendar, CRM and other business tools. It handles enquiries, books appointments, drafts follow-ups, and files documents 24/7. Pricing starts at £750 per month plus VAT with a three-month minimum term. The first agent goes live within 48 hours of onboarding. No technical knowledge is required.
A managed AI agent is a dedicated digital assistant trained on your business, connected to your tools, and continuously improved by our team. Unlike a one-time automation build, the managed retainer means we monitor it, improve it, and fix problems before you notice them, every single week.
You never touch a token, a model, or a line of code. The agent is yours, the work is ours.
Every Managed AI Agent retainer includes:
You never touch a token, a model, or a line of code. You just use your agent.
A chatbot answers questions. An AI agent does work. It connects to your CRM, your calendar, your email and your WhatsApp, and takes action automatically when conditions are met.
A chatbot tells a lead you will call them back. Our agents qualify the lead, check your calendar, book the appointment, and send the confirmation, without anyone on your team lifting a finger.

AutomateIn1Day's managed AI agent retainers start at £750 per month plus VAT. This covers one dedicated agent, up to two integrations, monthly improvements and email support. The mid-tier Agent Pro is £1,497 per month and includes up to three agents, unlimited integrations and fortnightly improvements.
All plans require a three-month minimum commitment, then roll monthly. Full tier breakdown below.
Every tier includes the complete setup: named agent with its own email address, Composio integrations, Obsidian knowledge vault, Trello request board, watchdog monitoring, alert system, weekly improvements and Loom updates. We do not gate these behind higher tiers — they are how we build agents properly.
All prices exclude VAT. Minimum three-month term, then rolling monthly. No exit fees after minimum term.
A part-time admin in the UK costs £15,000 to £20,000 per year and only works set hours. Your AI agent costs from £9,000 per year, works around the clock, never takes leave, and gets better every week. The economics are straightforward once you run the numbers.
"We replaced a £2,400 per month receptionist line with an AI agent. New-patient enquiries are handled 24/7 and booked straight into our calendar."
Our agents are currently deployed across estate agencies, law firms, accountancy practices, marketing agencies, insurance brokers, and manufacturers. The common thread is businesses with high volumes of email, enquiries, follow-ups, and admin, and a desire to scale without adding headcount.

Your first agent is live within 48 hours of your onboarding call. We map your workflows on the call, connect your tools, and deploy the agent the same week.
Most clients see time savings in the first seven days and measurable business outcomes by the end of month one.
Yes. The agent runs on infrastructure you own — your Claude or OpenAI account, your CRM, your email server. We never store your client data on AutomateIn1Day servers. All data stays in tools you already trust, governed by the contracts you already have with those vendors. GDPR is straightforward because nothing leaves your existing perimeter.
An AI agent replaces tasks, not people. The most common pattern we ship is replacing one specific recurring job — an after-hours receptionist line, a follow-up sequence, a document-filing workflow — that used to consume a person's time. Your team keeps doing the higher-value work the agent cannot do, like judgement calls, sensitive conversations, and relationship building.
Anything with an API or webhook. We have built integrations with HubSpot, Pipedrive, Salesforce, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, WhatsApp Business, Calendly, Cal.com, Xero, QuickBooks, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Notion, Airtable, and 6,000+ other apps via Zapier and Make. If your tool exists and has an API, we can connect to it.
Retainers start at £750 per month plus VAT for one dedicated agent with up to two integrations and monthly improvements. The mid-tier Agent Pro is £1,497 per month and covers up to three agents, unlimited integrations and fortnightly improvements. Agent Enterprise at £2,497 per month adds weekly improvements, a named agent with its own email address, and a quarterly strategy review. All plans require a three-month minimum, then roll monthly.
Every agent has built-in escalation rules. When confidence is low, the topic is out of scope, or a customer asks for a human, the agent stops and hands off cleanly to your team with a clean summary. You also get weekly or fortnightly improvement sessions where we look at real conversations and tune the agent for things it could have handled better.
Yes. After the three-month minimum term, the contract rolls monthly with no exit fee. You give us 30 days' notice and we hand over the agent, the documentation, and any custom integrations to you. You own everything we build.
No. The whole point of a managed retainer is that you do not touch the model, the prompts, or the integrations. You just use your agent the same way you use your email. We handle every technical decision for you, and report back in plain English in the monthly or fortnightly video updates.
A chatbot platform gives you a script editor and a chat widget. A managed AI agent is the actual digital worker: trained on your business, connected to your back-office tools, taking real actions like booking appointments, updating CRM records, and sending follow-up emails. The chatbot tells the customer you will call them back. Our agent qualifies the lead, checks your calendar, books the appointment, and sends the confirmation.
