Grow your business. Not your payroll.

Imagine every call answered, your admin done and every lead chased, 24/7, without another hire. We start with the job that costs you most. Then every month we manage, improve and expand it, until your business runs on a reliable AI workforce.

We don’t hand you advice or a strategy deck. We build working systems you can see.

We become part of your team, for a fraction of the cost of hiring your own AI specialist. From £1,500 a month.

Clara is one of our AI workers. Ask her anything, even the difficult questions. Then book a free 30-minute meeting with Robert Ward, founder of ForwardX. Or ring 01423 227770.

Let’s talk

A live video call with Clara, our AI assistant. She answers our phone too.

What’s possible

Two people. $401 million in sales.

The New York Times reported on a company that sold $401 million in its first full year with two people and AI doing the rest. Nobody is promising you that. But it shows how far a business can go without a big payroll.

What your AI workforce does

AI that does the work, not just the talking.

Not a chatbot. Each AI worker (what the industry calls an AI agent) is given a job, the tools and the rules, then gets on with it. Every hour of every day.

Your phone

  • Every call answered, day and night
  • Callers qualified, jobs booked and quotes sent before they hang up
  • Urgent calls flagged to you straight away

Your follow-up

  • Every lead and every quote chased until it’s a yes or a no
  • Follow-up call not answered? A text goes to them straight away
  • No-shows rebooked and reviews requested

Your inbox

  • Every email sorted, with what matters on top
  • Replies drafted in your tone. You approve, it sends
  • Simple questions answered within rules you set

Your admin

  • Your CRM kept up to date after every call and email
  • Invoices sent and overdue ones chased
  • A weekly report on calls, leads, bookings and money in

Your next customers

  • Companies found that match your best clients
  • Each one researched, with the decision maker identified
  • Added to your CRM, scored, with a reason to call now

You stay in charge. Prices, refunds and important emails come to you first. Every call and message is recorded.

The human touch

“But my customers want a real person.”

Do they? Or do they want their call answered, their question sorted and their job booked?

A customer who rings at 7pm doesn’t want a voicemail. A customer waiting on a quote doesn’t care who typed it. They want it fast and they want it right. That’s what wins the work.

Your people still matter. They just stop juggling calls, copying notes and chasing quotes, and spend their time where a human really makes the difference: with your customers.

And when a caller needs a person, it takes their details and assures them they will be contacted.

The proof

Everything we offer, we use ourselves.

Clara answers our phone, books our meetings and puts every caller into our CRM. Your business can have the same.

Pricing

A fraction of the cost of hiring. No build fee.

One AI worker

from £1,500a month

One job done end to end. Hosted, watched and improved every month. One AI worker can do the work of many employees.

When you want more

Once your first AI worker is paying its way, we add the next job. Each one is priced with you, on what it does.

  • No setup fee.
  • Three-month minimum.
  • Call and text usage billed at cost, no mark-up.
  • Prices exclude VAT.

How it works

Three steps.

Find the cost.

A free 30-minute meeting to work out what missed calls and admin are costing your business.

Fix the biggest leak.

Your first AI worker is built for the job that costs you most.

Run and grow.

Your systems are hosted, watched and improved every month, with new jobs added as your business is ready.

Questions

Straight answers.

What do I get?

A part-time AI specialist on your team, without the salary. You find out where your business is losing work or paying wages for jobs a machine can do, get AI workers built to do them, and have them managed and improved every month.

Is it worth it?

The free meeting works it out on your numbers. If the extra work won and the hours saved cover the fee, the sum is simple. If it doesn’t add up, you’ll be told.

Don’t customers want a human?

Customers want answers. A call answered on the first ring beats a voicemail every time, whoever answers it. When a caller needs a person, it takes their details and assures them they will be contacted.

Will it replace my staff?

It means you don’t need the next hire. Your people lose the repetitive work and spend their time on customers.

What if it makes a mistake?

It will occasionally, like any new starter. It works only from what you tell it, says when it’s unsure, and anything important comes to you to approve.

Is my data safe?

Your data stays in your own systems. AI workers only access what they need, and the AI services used don’t train on your data.

Do I have to change my number or systems?

No. You forward your number and it works with the diary, CRM and email you already use.

Do I need to be technical?

No. You explain how your business works. Everything technical is handled for you.

What if something happens to ForwardX?

Everything built for you is fully documented, so another specialist could pick it up. You’re never tied in.

How long does it take?

Your first AI worker is usually live within a few weeks.

Can I cancel?

Yes, after the three-month minimum. No setup fee, so nothing sunk.

What happens in the free meeting?

A 30-minute video call with Robert Ward, founder of ForwardX. You explain where your time and enquiries go, and get an honest view of what AI could take on and roughly what it’s worth. You pay nothing until you decide to go ahead.

Do you only work locally?

No. ForwardX works with businesses anywhere. Meetings are on a video call and everything runs online.

Why ForwardX?

Robert Ward, the founder, has over thirty years in software and has built and sold businesses in the UK and US. He built Buildova, Zoccio and ColdCall Simulator, and Clara runs our phone every day.

About

We run our own business on it first.

ForwardX is an AI agency founded by Robert Ward.

AI workers handle most of our day-to-day: Clara answers our phone, others find new clients, send quotes and keep the CRM current. That frees the people to do what people do best: get to know clients and deliver.

Find out what it’s costing you.

Ask Clara anything, even the difficult questions. She’ll show you what missed calls cost your business each month, then book you a free 30-minute meeting with Robert.

Or ring 01423 227770. Clara answers there too.

Before we talk

This is a video call with Clara, our AI assistant, not a person. Her face and her voice are computer generated. The call is recorded and transcribed so we can follow up on what you asked for.

We use your email or mobile only to follow up on this conversation: an AI call back, a text or an email. No newsletters and no mailing lists.

We never sell your details, and we never share them with anyone to market to you. They are handled only by the services we use to run the call and send the follow-up.

You can opt out at any time: reply STOP to a text, click the link in any email, or go to forward-x.com/optout. We stop straight away.
