If your team does it at a computer, AI can now do most of it. We’ll show you which parts.

BizSage is an AI operations company in Paarl, South Africa. We build AI workflows that take on the repetitive work your team does at a computer, in whatever software you use: capturing invoices, entering orders, answering routine customer questions, building reports and thousands of jobs like them. Your people keep the judgement calls. We find the work, build the workflows and keep them running.

If a person does it at a computer by following steps, it can usually become an AI workflow. A workflow picks up work where it arrives, such as an email, a form, a WhatsApp message, a new line in a spreadsheet or a record in your accounting system. AI reads it and decides what to do, the workflow updates your systems, and a person steps in wherever judgement is needed. Most companies have far more candidates than they expect, so the assessment ranks yours by payback.

The discovery call, the operations assessment and the proposal are free. As a guide, building the AI workflows costs R30,000 to R250,000 per department, and the ongoing partnership typically R50,000 to R90,000 a month, all-in. Your proposal fixes both before anything is built. You pay half the build fee when you sign and half when it goes live, and the monthly fee starts at go-live. You can stop it with a month’s notice.

It depends on the work. A build depends on how many workflows we build, how complex they are, how many systems they connect and how much AI they need. The monthly fee covers hosting, AI usage, monitoring and support, with no separate AI bills, so it grows with the volume of work your AI systems handle. Your proposal shows the hours returned and their rand value before you commit to building anything.

About a week from the discovery call to a proposal: one 60 to 90 minute operations assessment, then the proposal within 3 working days. Once you sign, a build usually takes 4 to 6 weeks. We run the new way next to the old until the results hold, and only then switch over. The monthly fee starts at go-live.

Yes. The discovery call, the operations assessment and the proposal cost nothing and commit you to nothing. We do this work upfront because a proposal built on how your business really runs is one you can trust.

The workflows we suggest starting with, based on the operations assessment; what AI does and what your people keep; the hours returned and their rand value; a fixed build price; and the monthly partnership fee once your systems are live.

The aim is more done with the team you already have. AI takes the repetitive steps, like capturing invoices, sending payment reminders or entering orders. Your people keep the work that needs judgement: exceptions, suppliers, difficult conversations, key customers and decisions. The assessment shows, role by role, what moves to AI and what stays with your team.

We build on the tools your team already uses, including Sage, Xero, QuickBooks, SAP, Syspro, Odoo, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, Pipedrive, Shopify, WooCommerce, Yoco, Paystack, Zendesk, Slack and WhatsApp. If a system has an API, we can usually build on it, and we often leave you with fewer systems than you started with.

POPIA is part of the design from the start. The assessment maps what personal information each process touches and the risks involved. We build on the systems you already control, give each AI system only the access its task needs, and people review whatever the AI flags. Every system reports the work it does on a live dashboard, so you can always see what it did.

Every engagement is led and managed by founder Chris Irwin, who has spent 20 years designing business systems and has built and sold three companies. He works with our team of AI and automation engineers. You deal with him directly, not a junior account manager.

Yes. Our office is at Workshop17 Paarl, but the discovery call and the assessment run online, so we work with companies across South Africa.
