Document extraction
Our systems read recurring document types like invoices or contracts into fixed fields. A review screen shows the extracted data beside the original page, and a person approves every record before it reaches your accounting system.
- Invoice processing
- Contract reading
- One-click corrections
Answer desk over files
Staff get answers from SharePoint or file shares using Teams or a browser. Every answer names the file and section it came from, based only on content that person may already open.
- Teams integration
- SharePoint search
- Internal knowledge
Phone line answered
Your phone line answers when nobody is in and books calls into your calendar. Callers are told they are talking to an automated system and can reach a person at any point.
- Calendar booking
- Call transcription
- Email messages
Steps between systems
Tasks run automatically on triggers like emails or timers. Software reads and writes through existing interfaces so your line-of-business systems do not have to be replaced.
- Email triggers
- System logs
- Failure alerts

Small office
Small Beaufort offices automate tasks that require manual typing. Systems read recurring documents into fields for approval, and an assistant answers staff questions using internal files without needing local IT support.
- Keyed data automation
- Approving document records
- Answering questions from files
Professional firms
Clinics, law and accounting firms use document extraction where a person approves every record. Permission reviews occur before any files are indexed for an answer desk.
- Document record approval
- File permission review
- Data extraction setup
Tour operators
Tour and charter operators manage out-of-hours inquiries. Out-of-season answering can be turned off, and calls are either booked into calendars or taken as messages sent by email.

- Calendar booking
- Email and text messages
Waterfront business
Waterfront businesses handle work orders, haul-out schedules and parts invoices. Customer messages arriving on four different channels are processed and logged by the system.
- Work order processing
- Haul-out scheduling
- Multi-channel message handling
Government contractors
Contractors build recurring reports and certifications from the same source documents each cycle. Past-performance write-ups are generated using existing records to maintain consistency.

Implementation process
Build work happens in stages to ensure the system fits your office workflow. Most builds are completed remotely from Mount Pleasant after an on-site visit.

Meeting at your office
We meet at your location in Beaufort to identify which tasks should be automated. This session determines where documents are stored and which jobs to build first.
- Local on-site visit
- Process identification
- Requirement gathering
Permission review and Microsoft 365
Permission review is completed before anything is indexed. Setup includes identity, licensing, backup and email within Microsoft 365 to prepare your tenant for automation.
- Data access audit
- License management
- Email setup
Remote build
Development is done remotely from Mount Pleasant. A first narrow build usually takes a few weeks and keeps your existing software in place while we create the automation.
- Remote development
- Software integration
- Narrow first build
Switch-on and training
Training and switch-on happen on site at your office. Any physical network work required for the system is also completed at your location during this stage.
- On-site training
- System launch
- Network configuration
Ongoing maintenance
Maintenance is performed on a set cadence so nobody in the office has to manage the technology. Updates are handled according to vendor requirements to keep systems running.
Index refresh
Search indexes are updated regularly so the answer desk has access to your newest files and documents.
Permission reports
Permission reports are provided on a set cadence because assistants return only what each person may already see.
Spend review
Spend is metered per request and budgets raise alerts if spending levels are reached.
Readiness review
Short readiness reviews are provided at no charge and delivered in writing. These cover document locations, tenant readiness and the first candidate job. Full assessments rank every use case and provide a build order with dependencies.
