Get 40+ Hours of Execution Capacity Every Week
Augment Teams gives you a dedicated, AI-trained assistant who handles your admin, operations, and growth tasks — fully managed, from £600/month. You get the output. We handle everything else.
"I didn't realise how much time I was losing until it stopped being my problem. Emails and follow-ups, all the little things that somehow eat your whole day. Having a VA handle it has been a bit of a lifesaver. We're getting back probably 20 hours a week, and for me that means I'm actually thinking about where the business is going instead of just trying to keep my head above water."
Trusted by agencies, recruiters, property firms, and SaaS companies across the UK
Your Business Is Growing. Your Capacity Isn't.
Every growing business hits the same wall. Revenue climbs, but the founder is still buried in the work that keeps the lights on. Sound familiar?
You've become the bottleneck
Every decision, every email, every follow-up runs through you. The business can't move faster than your personal bandwidth allows.
Admin is multiplying
CRM updates, invoicing, inbox management, scheduling, data entry. The tasks that don't grow your business are consuming most of your day.
Hiring locally is slow and expensive
A UK hire costs £28k-£35k+ per year before you factor in employer NI, pension, office space, equipment, and management overhead. And recruitment takes months.
Freelancers are unreliable
You've tried Upwork or Fiverr. The quality is inconsistent, availability drops, and you spend more time managing them than they save you.
Agencies charge too much for too little
Marketing and ops agencies bill £3k-£10k/month for work that a well-trained assistant could handle in-house at a fraction of the cost.
Automation alone isn't enough
You've built Zapier workflows and tried ChatGPT. But automation without a human to manage it just creates new problems to fix.
An AI-Augmented Operations Department — For a Fixed Monthly Cost
Augment Teams isn't a freelancer platform. It's managed staffing infrastructure. You get a dedicated person, trained on AI tools, working from our office, integrated into your business. We handle everything else.
Dedicated to You
Your assistant works exclusively for your business. They learn your processes, your clients, your voice. This isn't shared or pooled support.
AI-Trained for Output
Every assistant is trained on ChatGPT, Claude, automation platforms, and workflow tools. They don't just do tasks — they do them at 2-3x the speed of a traditional hire.
Fully Managed Employment
We recruit, onboard, train and support your assistant. Office space, equipment and HR administration — all handled.
UK Working Hours
Your assistant works 9am-6pm GMT from our managed office. Real-time collaboration. No overnight lag. No timezone juggling.
No Long-Term Lock-In
Flexible monthly arrangements. Scale up, scale down, or part ways with straightforward terms. You stay because it works, not because of a contract.
Built for UK Businesses
We understand UK business culture, compliance expectations, and communication standards. Our service is designed specifically for UK SMEs and agencies.
From First Call to Full Integration in 2-3 Weeks

Recruitment & Screening
We source candidates from our vetted talent pool, screen for skills and cultural fit, and present you with the best match. You approve before we proceed.
AI & Workflow Training
Your assistant receives hands-on training in ChatGPT, Claude and automation platforms. They arrive ready to execute.
Ongoing Management
We handle HR administration, onboarding and day-to-day coordination. Regular check-ins ensure quality stays high and output keeps improving.

Everything You Need to Know
We know delegating to someone you haven't met feels like a leap. Here's how we've removed the risk.
Your assistant works from our managed office during UK business hours (9am-6pm GMT). You communicate via Slack, Teams, email, or any tool your team already uses. Most clients say it feels no different from having someone in the next room. You'll have a shared task management system, daily check-ins (if you want them), and direct messaging throughout the day.
No delays. Our assistants work UK hours — 9am to 6pm GMT. They're online when you are, responding in real time. The Philippines is 7-8 hours ahead of the UK, which means our staff start their local afternoon when your morning begins. It's a perfect alignment.
Three layers. First, we recruit from a vetted talent pool — only the top candidates make it through our screening. Second, every assistant receives structured AI and workflow training before they start. Third, we provide ongoing management, performance reviews, and support. If something isn't working, we address it immediately — you never have to manage HR issues yourself.
Yes. All assistants work from our managed office with monitored workstations. NDAs are signed as standard. We implement access controls, secure password management, and data handling protocols. We can also work within your existing security policies and compliance requirements. If you have specific standards (ISO, GDPR-related), we'll accommodate them.
We handle it. Our staff retention rate exceeds 95% because we invest in good working conditions, fair pay, and professional development. In the rare event someone does leave, we recruit and train a replacement at no additional cost to you. Documented processes and SOPs mean the transition is smooth.
Most clients have a fully trained assistant integrated into their workflows within 2-3 weeks. This includes our consultation, role design, recruitment, AI training, and onboarding. Urgent placements can sometimes be fast-tracked to under two weeks depending on the role complexity.
Minimal. We handle the heavy lifting — AI tools, productivity systems, and core skills training happens before your assistant starts. Your involvement is limited to sharing your specific processes, preferences, and business context. Most clients spend a few hours in the first week getting their assistant oriented, then it's largely self-running. We also create SOPs and process documentation as part of onboarding.
Absolutely. Many of our clients start with one assistant and add more as they see the impact. Whether you need a second general assistant, a specialist marketing coordinator, or a finance support role — we recruit and train to your exact requirements. Scaling up takes the same 2-3 weeks.
