We Build Products That Scale Your Team

Automation.red is a technology company that exists at the intersection of software development, intelligent automation, and product design. We're not a consultancy, an agency, or an outsourcing shop—we're a product-driven team that builds digital infrastructure for businesses ready to move faster.

We operate as a lean, distributed team where every person owns outcomes, not just tasks. Our work is defined by:

Speed over process bloat

We ship fast, iterate faster

🎯

Ownership over hierarchy

Small teams, big responsibility

📈

Leverage over headcount

Automation and AI multiply what we can do

We don't believe in building teams of 50 when a team of 5 can deliver better results with the right tools, systems, and mindset.

Our Philosophy

Practical execution over buzzwords. We care about what works, not what sounds impressive. AI isn't a magic solution—it's a powerful tool we use deliberately to accelerate development, reduce manual work, and unlock capabilities that weren't feasible before.

Small teams, high leverage. The best products aren't built by armies. They're built by small, talented groups who collaborate closely, own their work, and leverage modern tooling to punch above their weight.

Remote-first, async-native. We're built for distributed work from day one. Clear documentation, structured communication, and trust in ownership—not meetings and micromanagement.

What We Build

We design and build solutions that solve real problems, reduce manual work, and create operational leverage.

Digital Products & Platforms

SaaS platforms Multi-tenant applications, subscription models, user management
Internal tools Custom dashboards, admin panels, workflow engines
Customer-facing products Web apps, portals, self-service platforms
Marketplaces & directories Multi-sided platforms with complex data relationships

Intelligent Automation

Marketing automation Lead routing, email sequences, campaign orchestration
Operations automation Reporting, tracking, notifications, approvals
Data pipelines ETL, integrations, scheduled jobs, webhooks
Process tooling Custom workflows to replace spreadsheets and fragmented tools

AI-Enabled Features

Intelligent summaries Distill long-form content, documents, conversations
Classification & tagging Auto-categorize content, support tickets, leads
Workflow assistants Guide users, suggest next actions, surface insights
Smart search Semantic search, recommendations, contextual results
Content generation Draft emails, reports, product descriptions, documentation

We treat AI as a force multiplier, not a replacement for strategic thinking or good design.

How We Work

Our approach is built around clear ownership, rapid feedback loops, and intelligent use of modern tools.

👥
01

Ownership-Driven Teams

We don't operate in silos. Every team member understands the full picture—from user needs to technical architecture to business goals. Ownership means seeing projects through from concept to production.

🚀
02

Rapid Iteration

We ship early versions, learn from real usage, and improve continuously. Perfect is the enemy of shipped. We optimize for learning speed over upfront perfection.

📝
03

Async & Documented

Remote work isn't just "Zoom instead of meeting rooms." We communicate asynchronously through documentation, recorded demos, and structured updates. This creates clarity and respects deep work time.

🤖
04

AI-Augmented Development

We actively use AI to accelerate coding, speed up design exploration, automate repetitive tasks, and enhance decision-making. AI makes our small team capable of delivering what traditionally required much larger teams.

⚙️
05

Modern Stack, Pragmatic Choices

We use proven, battle-tested tools and frameworks. We're not chasing trends—we're choosing technologies that let us move fast, maintain easily, and scale reliably.

Why Automation.red?

We're builders, not consultants

We don't just give advice—we ship products. We write code, design interfaces, configure systems, and own the outcome.

We're product-minded, not order-takers

We'll challenge assumptions, suggest alternatives, and push for the best solution—not just what was requested.

We're AI-native

We don't bolt on AI as an afterthought. We've integrated it into our development workflow and know how to build it into products effectively.

We're lean by design

Small teams force better decisions. We can't afford bloat, so we optimize for leverage, automation, and smart tooling.

We move fast

Weeks, not months. MVPs, not endless roadmaps. Iteration, not waterfall.
