About

About Andrew Reeves

Practical AI from someone who has worked on site and run small businesses.

Andrew Reeves runs The AI Assistant from Crosby, on the edge of Liverpool, and works with businesses across the UK, in person locally and by video call further afield.

Civil engineering and small-business background

Andrew's background is in civil engineering and running small businesses. That means he's familiar with the realities of site work, handovers between crews, quoting under time pressure and keeping on top of paperwork after a long day. It's why the focus here is on practical results rather than technology for its own sake.

I don't sell AI for the sake of it

If a simpler fix, a better routine or no change at all is the right answer, that's what you'll hear. Any time or money savings mentioned on this site are estimates, not guarantees.

How Andrew works

  • Start with the problem, not the tool.
  • Plain English, with honest advice about what AI can't do well.
  • Small, testable changes first, then build on what works.
  • Your data handled carefully, and people kept in charge of decisions.

Andrew also runs The UK AI Meetup, where business owners learn alongside other people putting AI to work.
