Automation services · Catalogue 2026–27
I'm Karl, a finance professional in Ireland who is building his Power Automate skills one real process at a time. I set up small, well-documented automations inside the Microsoft 365 your business already pays for, so chasing, checking and copying happen without you.
How a project runs
We talk through the task that eats your week. I tell you plainly whether automation is a good fit, and roughly what tier it is.
Free
I look at your process and licences and send a one-page map of your best three automations, with fixed prices for each.
€149, taken off your first build
I build in a demo tenant with sample data first, then set it up in your Microsoft 365 and test it with you on real cases.
Fixed price by tier
You get a plain-English guide, a walkthrough, and a support window. A monthly care plan is optional.
Care from €39/month
Pricing by complexity
Every automation in the catalogue already has a tier, so you see the price before we talk. Anything new gets a tier from the checklist below, and the price is fixed before I start.
Tier 1 · Quick win
€295 per flow
One job done on a schedule or a button: a reminder, a summary email, a message to the team.
Example: a monthly aged-debtors summary in the owner's inbox.
Tier 2 · Workflow
€695 per flow
A flow that makes decisions: imports a file, asks someone to approve, escalates when nobody answers.
Example: drop a bank CSV in a folder and get it reconciled, with duplicates skipped.
Tier 3 · Process suite
€1,950 from
A whole process made of connected flows, with a log, reminders, escalation and a weekly summary.
Example: the weekly team confirmation suite (7 flows) on this page.
| What decides the tier | Tier 1 · Quick win | Tier 2 · Workflow | Tier 3 · Process suite |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flows involved | 1 | 1 | 3 or more, connected |
| Apps it touches | Up to 3 standard (Excel, Outlook, Teams…) | Up to 5, may include an Office Script | Any standard connectors, plus SharePoint lists |
| Logic | Schedule or button, simple conditions | Approvals, loops, branches, file parsing | Hand-offs between flows, escalation chains |
| People involved | Sends to you or one team | Waits for someone to respond | Several teams, each with their own step |
| When things go wrong | Run history check | Failure alerts and retries | Failure alerts, retries and a status log |
| Typical delivery | Up to 1 week | 1 to 2 weeks | 3 to 6 weeks |
30% off
I'm still building my portfolio, and I'd rather say so. The first five businesses get 30% off any build. In return I ask for honest feedback and permission to write up the project as an anonymised case study, with no business name or figures unless you agree.
The pipeline
Most of these pair with a KarlPilot Excel tool, so the spreadsheet is ready for the flow on day one. Each one shows how far along it is. Add any to your estimate.
Ready-made suites
Order three or more catalogue flows and the whole order is 15% off. These are the groups I recommend most.
After go-live
Flows can stop when a password changes, a file moves or Microsoft updates a connector. A care plan means someone is watching. Cancel any time.
Up to 5 flows. Monthly run-history check, fixes when something breaks, email replies within 2 working days.
Up to 15 flows. Everything in Ground crew, plus up to 2 hours of small changes each month and a quarterly review call.
Pay yearly and get 2 months free.
Do it yourself
Prefer to build it yourself? Each kit is a step-by-step build guide for one Excel tool's flows, with the Office Scripts and sample data included.
Build guide, scripts and test data for the flows that go with one Excel tool. Single business use.
A 60-minute screen-share where we build your kit together in your own Microsoft 365.
The personal-finance flows (budgets, payday, debt and mortgage) are sold as kits only.
Your estimate
A guide to bring to the free call. The final price is fixed in writing after the quick-win map.
One-off build

Good to know
Usually not. Most flows here use standard connectors, which come with Microsoft 365 Business Basic, Standard and Premium. Flows that run Office Scripts need a business plan that includes the Excel desktop and web apps. Receipt reading uses AI Builder, which is a paid add-on, and I flag that before you order.
You do. Everything is built in your own Microsoft 365, under an account you control, and the guide shows how to change it later.
The flow is fully written up: trigger, steps, Excel tables and error handling. I build it in my demo tenant with sample data, then move it into yours, so you're not the test.
Small differences such as column names or who gets the email are part of the price. Bigger changes move a flow up a tier, and I tell you that before starting.
Your data stays in your Microsoft 365. I work with a guest or temporary account you can switch off, and I use sample data wherever I can.
Half when we agree the scope, half when the flow is live and you've tested it. Care plans are billed monthly or yearly.
