Your consultants should be billing, not formatting CVs.

We build fixed-scope automation for specialist recruitment agencies — CV formatting, candidate summaries, CRM enrichment, outreach preparation, follow-up that never leaks. One bounded workflow, one fixed price, live in weeks. Delivered by the same pipeline we use to run our own outreach — if we've contacted you, you've already seen it work.

Pilots from £3,500 + VAT. One outcome, agreed acceptance test, 14-day defect cover. Built for UK specialist agencies of roughly 5–50 fee earners.

  • CV formatting, candidate summaries, re-keying between systems: hours a week of fee-earner time that never bills.
  • We build one workflow at a time — with a human approval point your consultants control.
  • You define the pass/fail test before we build. If it doesn't pass, you have a revision round and 14 days of defect cover.

The bounded pilot

Pilots from £3,500 + VAT. One measurable outcome · your system of record · an acceptance test you write · 14-day defect cover.

Not sure the process can be fix-priced yet? The £2,000 diagnostic is the alternative entry — it maps the workflow, quotes the pilot, and is partly creditable if you proceed. It is never a prerequisite.

How it runs: discovery call (free, 15 minutes) → fixed proposal in 24 hours (2–4 pages, plain PDF) → build with one working session from your team → acceptance test, handover, and 14 days of defect cover.

What we won't automate: judgement, relationships, and candidate decisions stay human — we're paid to improve the workflow, not to maximise automation.

How success is agreed

Before anything is built, you write the acceptance test — pass/fail, in your numbers, in writing. A specimen, to show the shape: “Every new CV is returned to the consultant in house style, correct and ready to approve, within ten minutes.” Your test will use your workflow and your thresholds.

If the build doesn't pass the test you wrote, you have a revision round and 14 days of defect cover. Scope, exclusions, and the test itself are fixed in writing before we start.

The research, targeting and sequence that reached you were produced by the workflow category we build — you've watched part of the system work before opening this page.

Who you're dealing with

Delivered personally by Ryden Myers, founder of Virium Holdings Ltd (Company No. 17190230, registered in England and Wales). No outsourced fulfilment, no junior-staff handoffs. AI-assisted delivery with human review throughout — and one person accountable for the result.

The economics

£3,500 pays back in 3 months at ~£1,167/month of recovered value; 6 months at ~£583; 12 months at ~£292. Frequency × minutes × people × cost of time — your numbers, not ours. If your workflow can't clear the 12-month line, we'll say so on the call.

A good fit

  • UK specialist recruitment agencies
  • Roughly 5–50 fee earners
  • One repeatable workflow worth fixing
  • An owner or MD sponsoring the change

Not a fit

  • Sole traders
  • Enterprise RPO
  • “Automate everything” mandates
  • Anyone wanting a tool licence instead of a built workflow

The decision, in one box

  • Problem class: repetitive fee-earner admin — CV formatting, candidate summaries, re-keying between systems
  • Scope boundary: one bounded workflow, inside the CRM/ATS you already run
  • Price: £3,500 + VAT, fixed
  • Acceptance: a pass/fail test you define before the build
  • Ownership: deliverables are yours on payment
  • Cover: one revision round, then a 14-day defect period
  • Next step: a 15-minute call with the founder

Common questions

Candidate data? Written boundaries before we start: nothing enters AI tooling without your sign-off, nothing trains third-party models, every hiring decision stays with your team. In the contract, not a promise.

We already have tools. Good — we build into them; the pilot switches on capacity you're paying for and not using.

Why fixed price? Because scope is fixed: one outcome, exclusions in writing, changes only by agreed order. No surprise invoices.
