For UK small businesses
Hand the jobs that eat your week to an AI agent.
We set up AI agents for UK small businesses. They answer new enquiries before they go cold, take the admin off your team, and take the catching up off your evenings.
An AI agent is software that does one job for your business, such as chasing unpaid invoices, and asks you before it sends anything.
A few minutes, free, and it is also your application for cohort one. See an example report first.
Cohort one: five businesses, any trade. We set each one up with the owner on the phone, so we can take five. Setup and your first week are free. Nobody technical needed on your side.

Your software does its own job. Nothing joins it up or chases anyone.
Xero does the accounts. Your booking system takes bookings. Your CRM holds your contacts. AI agents work alongside all of it, in the gaps between: the replies, the reminders, the follow-ups and the filing.
How it starts, and every price.
Courage Horizon is an independent company in London. We set up AI agents for UK small businesses with five to thirty staff, run them and fix them when they break, and nobody technical is needed on your side. The Hub, where your agents do their jobs and you approve what they send, is £149 a month per business with £25 of AI use included. Setup is £1,500, refunded in full if you do not switch it on, and free for the five businesses in cohort one.
- Today Free report, and your application. Four short steps, a few minutes. The report is yours whether or not you join.
- Within five working days We reply to everyone who applies. With the businesses we can help, a thirty minute call to agree the one job worth starting with.
- Two weeks on Your first AI agent is switched on, doing that job for real. Your first week is free.
- After that £149 a month for your Hub, with as many agents as you need. You see what each day cost and what your agents did for it.
Start with the free report.
Tell us about your business and your team's week. We pick three jobs an AI agent could take off your team, with our estimate of the hours each takes and what that time costs you a month at your own hourly figure. The same form is your application for cohort one, and the report is yours whether or not you join.
Example from a report
A plumbing and heating firm, eight staff.
Our estimate: 6 to 10 hours a week, or £780 to £1,300 a month at £30 an hour. See the whole example
What people ask first.
- We already have software for this.
- Your accounts software, your booking system and your email each do their own job. None of them chases a customer, answers a new enquiry or pulls the week together for you. AI agents work alongside the software you already have and fill the gaps between it.
- Do I need anyone technical?
- No. We set everything up, run it and fix it. You see what each agent has done, approve anything that needs approving, and ask for changes in plain words.
- What if it does not work for us?
- Then you do not pay for it. Your first week is free. Outside cohort one, setup is £1,500 and puts your first agent live in two weeks; if you do not switch it on, we refund the £1,500 in full.
- Can the bill run away from me?
- No. You set a monthly limit for AI use and nothing can spend past it. The Hub shows what each day cost and what your agents did for it, and warns you before you reach the limit.
- Where does our data go?
- The Hub and everything it keeps about your business are hosted in Frankfurt, in the EU. The text an agent works on is processed by an AI provider in the EU or the United States, and the Hub shows you which. Before anything is switched on, we agree exactly what each agent reads, and anything an agent would send to a customer waits for your approval first. The privacy policy names every company that processes anything and how long each thing is kept.
- Who will I speak to?
- The person who builds your AI agents. We are a small independent company in London, and the call is with the one doing the work.
Give the jobs that eat your week to an AI agent.
Free, and it is also your application for cohort one.
