Stop Drowning in Data.

Start Making Decisions.

Most small and mid-sized businesses have no shortage of reports. They have spreadsheets, system exports and monthly packs. What they often lack is a clear answer to a simple question: what should we do next?

I spent more than 30 years in finance, budgeting and call centre planning in the Canadian telecom industry. Again and again I saw the same pattern. The numbers told one story, but the reality on the ground was another. A team could look fully staffed on paper and still miss its service target, because people were scheduled at the wrong times for the way calls actually arrived. The data was there. The decision was missing.

That is why I founded BuildAI Digital.

What we are

BuildAI Digital offers 37 AI-powered dashboards across 8 areas of a business: Executive, Finance, Human Resources, Sales and Revenue Growth, Customer and Marketing, Operations, Call Centre and Telecom, and Risk, Compliance and ESG. Each one turns your own data into clear pictures and plain-English guidance.

What we offer

  • An Executive Advisor in every dashboard. Ask a question in everyday words and get an answer you can act on.
  • Your own data. Upload an Excel or CSV file, or edit data live in the browser.
  • Reports ready to share. One click creates a board-style narrative or a PDF report for your team, lenders or investors.
  • Tally users covered. Financial Intelligence for Tally is built for businesses that run on Tally.
  • New: Financial Modelling Command Centre. A tool for planning ahead with confidence.

Why we are different

Most dashboards stop at charts. Ours are built from real, hands-on experience of budgeting and planning, so they highlight what needs your attention and why. Every card has a plain-English explanation, so new staff can pick it up quickly. And it comes with 30 days of support, because a tool is only useful when you are comfortable using it.

The pain points we solve

  • Too many reports and not enough clarity
  • Hours lost pulling numbers together before every meeting
  • Decisions made late, or by gut feel
  • Staffing and cost problems you only notice after the damage is done
  • Reports that are hard to explain to a team, a lender or a board

Try it first

Every dashboard comes with a free 14-day demo, and we offer a free 20-minute assessment to help you see where a dashboard could help most.

Meet us next

We are exhibiting at the Bengaluru Tech Summit (BIEC, November 17–19) and GITEX Dubai (December 8–10). Come and see the dashboards live.
