That is the part we do. A Workshop at A$1,500 + GST, a written proposal with a fixed price, then a Build that goes live in your own accounts and keeps running.
Anyone can run a pilot. Getting a process to run without you, and keep running after everyone has stopped paying attention, is a different job. It is the job Matt Breuillac did for fourteen years on industrial projects where nearly finished was worth nothing. We build the workflow agents that move repetitive work end to end, and we audit the AI your team is already using so your IP does not leak out. It starts with a Workshop: two to four hours with the people who run the process, and a proposal you keep whether or not we build it.
Three things to know
We spend two to four hours with the people who run the process, prepared in advance from the documents you send. You get a written proposal with a process map and a fixed price for the Build. It is yours whether or not we build it.
Per-seat AI assistants help individuals. Workflow agents change unit economics. If you have already paid for the first and nothing has changed, you have not deployed AI yet. We build the second thing.
Inside an engineering consultancy. Inside a medical practice. Calculation-to-report and intake-to-note workflows where senior staff were spending hours on transcription that should not have been theirs to do. The operators who built it are the same operators who will build yours.
Where AI lands in your business
Each path starts with the same Workshop. It ends in a written proposal with a fixed price for the Build, and the decision is yours from there.
Lead use case
Engineering consultancies, allied health practices, accounting firms, legal teams. 30 to 60 percent of admin time moves the same data between systems.
We have built this in engineering and medical settings.
Mid-market SMEs who deployed Microsoft 365 Copilot or ChatGPT Team six to twelve months ago and cannot name a single business outcome that shifted.
We build the workflow agents Copilot rollouts were supposed to deliver.
Owner-operators who have been hearing about AI for two years, have not done anything, and just lost a quote to a competitor who clearly has.
The Workshop exists for buyers who have not started.
“If your team is still copying numbers between forms in 2026, you do not have an AI problem. You have an automation problem with an AI shape to it.”
Matt Breuillac, founderIn their words
We could fill this section today with unattributed quotes and hours-saved figures. Every firm on this page's competitor set has. We are not going to. A quote goes here when a named client has signed off on it, and a number goes here when it was measured before and after, not estimated afterwards. Until then, the Still Running board shows what we have built and whether it is alive this morning, including the ones that stopped. See trust and governance for the disclosure standard.

Core Nova is a Perth practice. We build workflow automation that is still running a year later, and we audit the AI a business is already using. We start with a paid Workshop: A$1,500 + GST, two to four hours with the people who run the process, ending in a written proposal with a process map and a fixed price. The Build follows only if you want it.
Australian SMEs. We build the workflow agents that move repetitive work end to end, and we audit the AI your team is already using so your IP does not leak out.
Per-seat assistants like Microsoft 365 Copilot or ChatGPT help individuals draft email and summarise meetings. They do not change the unit economics of a business. A workflow agent moves one process end to end with explicit scope, guardrails, an evaluation harness, and an escalation path. Different things.
Common ask. Defence suppliers, legal practices, healthcare, regulated finance, and many engineering shops have a hard rule that company IP cannot leave the corporate network. Core Nova deploys local open-weight models on your hardware or inside your private cloud, with no internet egress or with controlled outbound only. Your prompts, your documents, and your IP never cross the boundary. We have deep operating experience picking the right model for the hardware you already own (or specifying what to buy), running the inference stack, building the retrieval and guardrails around it, and wiring it into the workflow. The trust page details the four configurations we run (Cloud, VPC, On-prem, Air-gapped) and exactly which data crosses which boundary in each.
NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, OWASP LLM Top 10, and MITRE ATLAS. Each engagement names which controls apply in the SOW. The trust page describes the configuration disclosure standard.
