YOU ASKED
“How do I get a better deal from my main supplier?”
YOUR ANSWER
Don't open with a discount request. The strongest negotiations focus on the whole commercial relationship, not the price line.
-
Review your last 12 months of spend before you talk
-
Ask for value: payment terms, delivery, lower minimum orders
-
Time it - month, quarter or year end or before renewal
-
Get one or two competitor quotes so you're informed, not bluffing
Be ready to offer something back: a longer term, larger orders, faster payment.

WHAT YOU'RE BUYING
A specialist you can ask at 11pm on a Sunday
Most business questions don't need a solicitor or an accountant. They need a straight answer, quickly, from something that actually knows UK rules. An annual plan buys you a year of that in one specialist area - for less than a single hour of professional time.
What it is
-
A written answering service across one specialist area of your choosing
-
Answers generated using several leading AI platforms, then cross-checked against published UK sources before they're sent to you
-
Available 24/7 - ask at any hour, including weekends and bank holidays
-
Paid once for twelve months, at £10 a month equivalent
-
Built around UK rules: Companies House, HMRC, UK employment and consumer law
What it isn't
-
Not regulated legal, financial or tax advice - and not a substitute for it
-
Not a human adviser reviewing every answer before it reaches you
-
Not someone doing the work for you - that's a Support Plan
-
Not cancellable part-way - the year is paid upfront. If you want the freedom to stop, take the rolling monthly plan instead
-
Not an all-areas pass - one subscription covers one specialist area
THE MATHS
What paying yearly actually saves
Every area is £14 a month or £120 a year. The saving is £48 per area, per year - and it stacks if you hold more than one.
Cashback is separate and applies on top - see below. Prices shown before cashback.
HOW AN ANSWER IS PRODUCED
Four steps, start to finish
We're open about the mechanics, because the mechanics are why a year costs £120 and not £150 an hour.
INCLUDED IN EVERY ANNUAL PLAN
What £120 a year gets you
VOLUME
Up to 300 questions a month
For usage, per plan - up to 3,600 questions across the year. In practice, more than almost any small business gets through.
ACCURACY
Cross-checked against UK sources
Every answer is verified against published UK guidance before it's sent, so it reflects UK rules rather than generic advice.
SPEED
Answers typically in minutes
Not a callback in three days. Ask at 7am before your supplier meeting and have your answer before you leave
DEPTH
Full written answers
Structured explanations with the detail you need to act - not a two-line summary or a link to go and read something else.
AVAILABILITY
Open 24 hours, 7 days
No office hours, no queue, no "we'll get back to you". Weekends and bank holidays included, all year.
PRICE
Locked for twelve months
One payment, no monthly deductions to watch and your rate is fixed for the full term regardless of any price changes.

BEFORE YOU SUBSCRIBE
Questions people ask us first
What am I committing to with an annual plan? Twelve months, paid upfront at £120 per area. That's what buys you the lower £10-a-month rate. If you'd rather keep the freedom to stop at any point, take the rolling monthly plan at £14 a month instead - no minimum term, cancel whenever you like.
Can I get a refund if I stop using it? The annual plan is paid for the full year and isn't refundable part-way through. If that's a concern, start on monthly and switch to annual once you know it earns its place.
Are the answers written by AI? Yes and we'd rather say so plainly. Answers are generated using several leading AI platforms and cross-checked against published UK sources before they reach you. There's no human adviser reviewing each one. That's exactly why a year costs £120 rather than £150 an hour - and why we're clear about what it is and isn't suitable for.
How fast will I actually get an answer? Typically within minutes, at any hour. There's no queue, no office hours and no waiting for someone to be free.
How many questions can I ask? Up to 300 a month, per plan, under fair usage - around 3,600 across the year. That's a ceiling to stop abuse rather than a budget you'll feel.
Does one plan cover all five areas? No - one subscription covers one specialist area. You can hold as many as you need and combining them earns cashback: 25% back on two plans, at least 30% back on all five.
Is this regulated legal or financial advice? No. Answers are general guidance to help you make informed decisions. For anything requiring regulated advice - a live dispute, a complex tax position, a contract with real money on it - speak to a qualified professional. An Advice Plan is the fast first answer, not the final word.
What if I want someone to do the work, not just answer questions? That's a Support Plan. Those are delivered by real people who take the task off your plate - admin, finance, legal, marketing or procurement. Advice Plans tell you what to do; Support Plans do it.
