About OptiBee

OptiBee is a founder-led AI consultancy in Manchester, run by Toby Remond and registered as OptiBee AI Ltd. It helps UK small and medium businesses find automation worth doing, build it, and train staff to use it. Engagements start from how the work is done today, not from a chosen tool.

The usual path is an AI audit that yields a costed 90-day plan, built from the client's recorded hours. An embedded partnership then delivers that plan step by step. Separate bespoke builds cover AI-native custom CRMs and workflow software. OptiBee also runs a free AI First Half-Day for one business each week.
