## What FlowNest does

- [Systems, agents and workflows](https://flownest.xyz/systems): The three
  engineering layers. Systems hold knowledge, memory and safe tool access.
  Agents reason, decide and act. Workflows make it repeatable and observable.
- [Full capability atlas](https://flownest.xyz/capabilities): 35 shippable
  components across AI systems, agent patterns and automation loops.
- [How we work](https://flownest.xyz/how-we-work): Four phases, typically
  four to eight weeks. Discovery produces a written diagnosis. Architecture is
  agreed before any code is written. Delivery runs in weekly sprints.
- [AI systems](https://flownest.xyz/ai-systems): Bespoke AI system engineering. The
  foundation layer of RAG knowledge bases, memory, model routing, guardrails,
  integrations and audit logging that agents and workflows run on. Includes a
  comparison against off-the-shelf SaaS and platform builds such as Copilot Studio.
  From £3,500 plus VAT.
- [AI agents](https://flownest.xyz/ai-agents): Custom AI agent development. Agents
  that pursue a goal, use existing business tools and escalate to a person at agreed
  boundaries. Four shapes: voice, triage and routing, research and enrichment,
  multi-agent orchestration. From £3,500 plus VAT.
- [Workflow automation](https://flownest.xyz/workflow-automation): Bespoke automation
  connecting CRM, booking, orders and operations, with exception handling and failure
  alerts. Includes an honest comparison against Zapier, Make and n8n.
- [AI voice agents](https://flownest.xyz/ai-voice-agents): Inbound call handling that
  qualifies the caller and books against live availability, with clean handover to a
  human. Compared against human answering services.
- [Document automation](https://flownest.xyz/document-automation): Extraction from
  PDFs and scans, validation, document generation and audit logging for regulated
  processes. Compared against OCR and template extraction.
- [Pricing and engagement](https://flownest.xyz/pricing): Three packages.
  Starter from £3,500, Premium from £7,000, Enterprise from £15,000, all plus
