About
We help small businesses get compliant, get visible, and get their time back.
Ops Intel is an AI compliance consultancy based in Newcastle upon Tyne. We build compliance frameworks for UK, EU, US and Canadian AI regulations — then make you visible in AI search, and automate what's left. Compliance first. Everything else after.
Our story
Built by someone who's seen the problem first-hand.
I'm Scott Neve, founder of Ops Intel. I spent years working in operations, watching talented, hard-working business owners lose hours every day to tasks that a well-configured automation could handle in seconds.
Then AI regulation arrived — and the picture changed. UK GDPR already applies to every AI system that processes personal data. The EU AI Act is live. State laws in the US are active. Most businesses using AI tools have no compliance framework, no documentation, and no idea the ICO doesn't need to wait for a new law to enforce.
So Ops Intel evolved. We lead with compliance — because using AI without a legal framework isn't just risky, it's already non-compliant. Once you're protected, we make you visible in AI search and automate what's left. In that order.
How we work
The principles we operate by
Understand first, build second
We spend real time learning how your business works before we touch a single tool. Cookie-cutter automations break. Custom ones don't.
No lock-in, no black boxes
You own everything we build. We use standard tools — n8n, Make, Zapier, OpenAI — and document everything so you're never dependent on us.
Results, not reports
We measure success by hours saved and tasks automated — not dashboards that look impressive but change nothing. If something isn't working, we fix it.
Small client base, deep focus
We deliberately limit how many clients we take on. Every business we work with gets our full attention — not a ticket number and a scripted response.
Honest advice, always
If your business isn't ready for automation, or if a cheaper tool would serve you better, we'll tell you. We'd rather lose a sale than set you up to fail.
Proudly UK-based
Everything is handled in-house, in the UK. No offshore outsourcing, no timezone headaches. You speak to the person who actually built your automations.
