Severus
Business automation and AI for UK construction companies and law firms
Severus (severus.co) is a UK business automation and operations partner for construction companies and law firms, with offices in London and Tallinn. Founded in 2021, we work on one principle: strategy before software. Most companies have already bought the software and are still waiting for the result. We start from the other end. Together with you we define the outcome your business needs, written on one page with a metric, a baseline from your own data, a target and a date. Then we design the best route to it, with every option costed and the risks mapped upfront, and implement the software that gets you there at a fixed price and timeline once the design is agreed. Sometimes that means connecting the tools you already have (Procore, COINS, Sage, Xero, Microsoft 365), sometimes building custom software, and sometimes adding AI inside your own environment, only where it pays for itself. Recent outcomes: a connected cost-control system for a construction firm (cost leakage down 68%, month-end from three weeks to three days, ROI in seven months); AI-assisted construction contract review (from days to about three hours per contract); a gold savings platform grown from 500K to 1.5M+ users; automated payment chasing on Xero and QuickBooks data, live in five months. 11 people in their team

Description AI readiness and governance for UK construction companies and law firms. We start with one business outcome, not a tool: a readiness assessment of your data and processes, use cases ranked by measured ROI, an AI usage policy, and a tested pilot inside your own environment (Procore, COINS, Sage, SharePoint, practice management systems). Typical first projects: AI contract review for NEC and JCT, automated weekly reporting, and document drafting. Fixed price and timeline once the design is agreed.Skills in Artificial Intelligence (3) Artificial IntelligenceGenerative AIAI AgentsWork in Artificial Intelligence (1) Client in Artificial Intelligence (1) MEP subcontractor (confidential)Construction

Before anything is built, we agree one outcome with you on a single page: a metric, a baseline from your own data, a target and a date. Then we design the best route to it, with every option costed and the risks mapped upfront: build, buy, integrate or automate. Deliverables include process maps, requirements, solution design and a costed roadmap.

StoryFounded in 2021, Severus started from one observation: construction firms and law firms lose margin to admin, not to bad work. We connect the systems they already use, from COINS and Procore to practice management and accounting, and add AI where it saves real hours. Offices in London and Tallinn.
