SOLVÉ
You built the business. We keep it running.
Solvé takes on the operational, administrative and project work that keeps a company moving, so you can stay focused on what only you can do.
Every problem left unsolved costs you time, focus, and peace of mind. We handle the operational load, so your energy goes back to growing the business, not just keeping it standing.
"It's not if a problem can be solved. It's when."Where we lead
Getting your business ready for AI
An AI tool can't follow a process nobody's written down. This is the sharpest advantage we offer, from a readiness audit through to an ongoing checking layer.
Other support
Six ways we keep the rest running
Retainer ops, ad-hoc cover, project management, event management, EA support, service improvement. Whatever's on fire or falling behind.
See all services →How we work
Two stages, one partnership
Most engagements move through two stages: a focused clear-up to get on top of things, then an ongoing retainer to keep them that way.
Where most partnerships start
Backlog Clear-Up
A focused, intensive period to get on top of the mess. We clear the backlog, build what's missing, and fix what's broken, with more hours and full attention while we get your operations back under control.
Keeping it running
Ongoing Retainer
Once the heavy lifting's done, we step into a lighter, embedded arrangement that keeps everything running smoothly. We agree the term together on the call and set it around what works for you. Nothing's signed until it does.
Who we are
The people behind Solvé
We're Josey and Jess. Close friends for more than ten years, and operators long before we were founders.

Operational support built around your business
AI readiness leads the way we work, backed by the six operational areas below. No two businesses run the same way, so we don't offer one-size-fits-all packages.
Where we lead
AI readiness
The same shape as the services below: diagnose, fix, maintain. This leads because it's the advantage that sets us apart, built on the same operational depth we've always offered.
1. Diagnose: AI Readiness Audit
Map five processes, say which are ready.
2. Fix: AI Documentation Sprint
Write the SOPs and rules, automate the safe ones.
3. Maintain: AI Operations Partner
Own the checking layer, ongoing.
Alongside that

Backlog Clear-Up
A focused, intensive period to get on top of the mess. We clear the backlog, build what's missing, and fix what's broken, with more hours and full attention while we get your operations back under control. It's the fastest way to feel the difference, and it sets everything up for what comes next.
Keeping it running
Ongoing Retainer
Once the heavy lifting's done, we step into an ongoing retainer: a lighter, embedded arrangement that keeps everything running smoothly. The hours come down, the focus shifts from fixing to protecting, and everything we've built stays maintained and organised. We agree the term together on the call and shape it around what works for you, before anything's signed.
Optional add-on
Out-of-Hours Support
Business doesn't stop at half five. Our Out-of-Hours Support keeps your operations moving after your team logs off: evening and weekend cover for the admin, coordination and operational tasks that would otherwise wait until morning. So your leadership team walks in to progress each morning, backlog already handled.

Everyone's business is different
There's no template for how a business should run. So there's no template for how we support one.

Where we lead
The AI readiness test
Ten quick questions. Two minutes. Nothing you enter here gets sent anywhere, this runs entirely in your browser.
Most businesses buying AI tools right now get very little back from them, and it's rarely the tool's fault. An AI tool can't follow a process that only lives in someone's head. This test tells you plainly where that's true for you, and where it isn't.
Privacy
Privacy policy
Who we are
This site is run by We Are Solve Ltd, trading as Solvé. We're a company registered in England and Wales, company number 17344859, registered office 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London WC2H 9JQ. We're registered with the Information Commissioner's Office as a data controller, reference ZC211541. For anything in this policy, contact us at hello@wearesolve.com.
What this covers
This policy covers personal data collected through wearesolve.com: the contact form, the AI readiness test, and booking a discovery call. It doesn't cover data we handle on behalf of clients once you're working with us, that's governed by your contract with us, not this policy.
What we collect
Through the contact form: your name, company name, email address, and whatever you tell us about what's going wrong. Through the AI readiness test: your answers and score, and your email address only if you choose to have your result sent to you, which is always optional and only asked after you've already seen your score. Through booking a call: whatever Microsoft Bookings collects to schedule it, covered by Microsoft's own privacy terms as well as this one. We don't collect payment or financial details through this site.
Why we use it, and on what basis
We use contact form and booking details to respond to your enquiry and arrange the call you've asked for. Our lawful basis is legitimate interests: you've reached out to a business asking to be contacted back, and that's the only thing we do with it. If you give us your email after the AI readiness test, our basis is your consent, and you can withdraw it at any time by emailing us. We don't use anything you send us for marketing unless you separately ask to hear from us, and we never sell personal data to anyone.
Who we share it with
Two providers process data on our behalf, and neither uses it for their own purposes. Netlify hosts this site and handles the contact form and AI test submissions. Netlify, Inc. is based in the United States, and is certified under the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, which is a recognised legal safeguard for that transfer, checked directly against Netlify's own published privacy policy rather than assumed. If you book a call, Microsoft processes the booking through Microsoft Bookings, under its own privacy terms. We don't use any other third-party tool on this site, and we set no cookies beyond what's strictly necessary for the site to run, so there's currently no tracking or analytics to disclose. If that changes, this section and a cookie banner both will too.
How long we keep it
If your enquiry doesn't turn into a client relationship, we keep it for up to 24 months from your last contact with us, then delete it. If you become a client, your details become part of the contract and our business records, kept for 6 years after the relationship ends, in line with normal accounting and legal requirements.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you can ask us to: confirm what we hold about you and get a copy of it; correct it if it's wrong; delete it; restrict how we use it; get a portable copy to take elsewhere; and object to how we're using it. Where we're relying on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time. To use any of these, email hello@wearesolve.com. We'll respond within one month.
Complaints
If you're unhappy with how we've handled your data, tell us first at the email above so we can try to put it right. You can also complain directly to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
Changes to this policy
We'll update this page if what we collect or how we use it changes, and update the date below when we do.
