Testimonials
Three clients, in their own words.
"The integration of AI analytics with our CRM system has been amazing for our business. We're now able to spot patterns and preferences we simply couldn't see before. It's given us insights that directly translate to growth and stronger relationships with our customers."
Zoe Hubert
Director at Olton Bedrooms
"We knew we had to look into using AI, but had no idea where to start. Vu Agency took time to understand our business and the challenges. They showed us how to incorporate AI into our everyday work to get more done."
Sara Bremner
Head of Events at Oval Digbeth Ltd
"I knew AI would help but didn't know where to start and what to use. I was overwhelmed and anxious about downloading something I shouldn't after an early attempt resulted in being hacked. Phil is an angel sent from tech heaven! Absolutely excellent solutions for a small business to work better using the technology available now."
Jo Salmon
Director at Make Asset Management Ltd
We're also a venture studio.
Vu Agency also operates a venture studio where we combine our tech experience with your industry expertise to create new software companies.
We'll design, build and launch it for a deposit well below the full build cost, paid back as agreed revenue targets are hit. We take a co-ownership stake and grow the product together. We only partner with founders and companies who are genuine experts in their field. Our CTO was the co-founder of AccountancyManager which was sold to private equity.
- Deposit far below build cost, refunded on revenue milestones
- We handle design, development and infrastructure
- You bring the domain expertise, we bring the tech

Frequently Asked Questions
The questions we get asked before a first call.
Most of the businesses we help are established UK companies who've outgrown spreadsheets, off-the-shelf software, or email. Examples include recruitment agencies, events, commercial finance, exhibitions, fitted furniture, financial advice etc. We also work with companies in the US and Australia.
You get a written route within two working days of sending a requirement. A proof-of-concept is 3 days and a fixed-scope build starts from 5 days for a clear, well-scoped project. Larger systems take longer. For larger projects we'll always agree a written timescale before work starts.
No. Our services are designed to adapt to the way you and your team already work. We'll show you and your team how it all works. From hosting to monitoring to training to server management, we make sure that everything keeps ticking over nicely.
The Agency directors scope, build and maintain our clients' software. We build products ourselves. Raq.com and 102.ai are owned and operated by the Agency. You own the code. If it's not the best approach we'll tell you honestly.
A working proof-of-concept ranges between £7,500 and £12,500 and a fixed-scope build ranges from £15,000 to £90,000. We'll always agree a fixed cost in writing before work starts. For a rough figure in minutes, describe the project at quote.vu.co.uk, or send us the requirement and we'll price it in writing.
Before connecting any AI models, we'll agree with you: security protocol, supplier agreements, data retention, data access, logging, and more. We use zero-data-retention routing where required and supported. That does not remove records held by the application itself. If a project qualifies, private infrastructure is also an option. The free report and website chat have their own terms in our privacy policy.

Alternatively, send us your requirements and Phil or Alex will get back to you in writing within 2 working days.
