Python automation and custom tools
If someone on your team repeats the same task every week, I can often write a program to do it. I build the tools in Python and quote each one in writing.
What this covers
- Workflow automation.A script that moves data from one place to another on a schedule.
- Data processing.Cleaning, merging and reporting on spreadsheets and exports.
- Single purpose tools.One tool for one job, such as renaming and sorting a folder of files.
- Cloud hosting.The script runs on a server, so nobody has to leave a laptop switched on.
How we start
Send me the task as it happens today: who does it, how long it takes, and what they open to do it. I tell you if a script will help and what it would cost. If a spreadsheet formula solves the problem, I’ll tell you that too.
Cost
This service has no starting price on this site, because a ten line script and a company system are too far apart. I quote each project in writing.
FAQ
What do you automate?
Repeat tasks with clear rules: copying data between systems, building reports, renaming and sorting files, sending scheduled messages.
Do you build whole business systems?
I build tools. If you need a large system with many users, I’ll say so and scope it as a separate project.
Who owns the scripts?
You do. You own the code and the assets once the project is paid for.
Do you have examples?
Not as a published case study yet. The sites and platforms I manage are on the Work page. If you describe your task, I’ll tell you in my first reply whether a script is the right fix.
Where does it run?
On a cloud server or on your own machine. The quote names which.
