What we build
From a single AI win to your whole operation.
- 01AI
AI assistants ↗
A 24/7 assistant that answers questions, qualifies enquiries and books them in, on your site and in your inbox.
- 02Training
AI for your team ↗
Train your people to actually use AI, woven into how they work day to day. The highest-leverage thing most businesses still aren't doing.
- 03Build
Custom software & systems ↗
The internal tools that actually run your business, built around how you work, not how some off-the-shelf product thinks you should.
- 04Workflow
Automation ↗
Connect your tools and kill the admin, quotes, follow-ups, invoicing and reporting, running themselves in the background.
- 05Front door
Websites ↗
The front door. Fast, beautiful, built to convert, designed from scratch for your business, never a template.
Selected work
Proof, not promises.
AI build · under NDA
William Abbott Developments ↗
Sustainable housebuilder, South West
We built their buyers an AI homeowner assistant. New owners ask it anything ("what's my roof made of?", "what boiler is fitted?", "where's the warranty?") and get an instant answer with the document attached. The handover pack, reinvented.
AI build · under NDA
Innobuild ↗
Construction & development, South West

Block management, Plymouth
Brand, website and the back-office automations that run the firm day to day. Built and maintained end to end.
Website & growth
Modbury Remote ↗
Property admin service
Website, lead automation and Google Ads, built and run end to end. A full funnel, not just a brochure.

The studio
You work with the person who builds it.
Milne & Associates is a small, sharp studio run by Sam Milne. No account managers, no offshore handoff, no template factory, you deal directly with the person doing the work, backed by a tight bench of specialists when a job needs it.
We've built AI products for housebuilders and contractors, and brands, websites and systems for property firms. We can do the same inside your business.
