A working agent, not a strategy deck
A live agent on one real workflow: connected tools, approval rules, a simple console to run it, and handover notes your team can actually use.
Secure AI automation for small & medium business
Automate the work.Keep the control.
Nebulas puts AI agents to work inside the tools you already use, inbox, CRM, accounting, project tracking, so follow-ups, reports, and admin get done without you. Built on zero-trust security: every agent gets only the access it needs, and you approve anything sensitive.
Zero-trust architectureSecurity built in, not bolted on
Human in the loopYou approve sensitive actions
Fast to valueFirst workflow live in weeks
One orchestrator. Your existing tools. Least-privilege access, a full audit trail, and a human in the approval seat.
AI agent setup for small & medium business
Your first AI agent, working in weeks.
We deploy a secure AI agent into one real workflow, lead follow-up, reporting, invoicing prep, or inbox triage, connected to the tools you already use, with least-privilege access and human approval on anything sensitive.
One workflow first, then expand
Connects to any tool with an API
You approve sensitive actions
Every setup is scoped around value, access, security, and an operating rhythm your team can run.
Zero trust from day one
Each agent runs with its own identity, least-privilege access, and network isolation. Nothing touches your systems beyond what the workflow needs, and every action is logged.
The agent gets a cockpit
A simple console where you assign work, review drafts, approve sensitive actions, see exceptions, and track exactly what the agent has done.
Enterprise discipline, SME scale
30 years of enterprise delivery behind every setup, identity, permissions, auditability, applied to businesses that need results, not a transformation program.
Engagement paths
Pick the path that matches where you are
Three ways to start, depending on how clear your first workflow is. Typical timing: discovery in 1–2 weeks, Starter in 2–4 weeks, Professional staged across 4–8+ weeks. Budget signals usually map to under-$5k discovery, $5k–$15k Starter, and $15k+ Professional, final scope is confirmed after a short intake, not guessed from a form.
One secure workflow
Best when you can already name the repetitive workflow and want a contained, approval-gated agent before expanding.
- First-workflow mapping and success criteria
- One agent for lead triage, handoff checks, reporting, inbox digest, or admin prep
- Least-privilege access setup, approval rules, and handover
- You provide tool access, a workflow owner, sample inputs, and a success measure
Typically 2–4 weeks once inputs, access, and approval owner are clear
Ask about Starter →Agent + tool ecosystem
Best for teams connecting multiple tools and recurring workflows where approvals, reporting, and escalation matter.
- Full operating model adapted to your environment
- Any API-accessible tool as scoped, plus established Jira, Confluence, Microsoft 365, CRM, accounting, GitHub, Slack/Teams, and internal-system patterns
- Reporting loop, escalation rules, monitoring cadence, and an optimisation backlog
- You provide system owners, a credentials path, representative workflow data, and a named operating owner
Typically 4–8+ weeks for multi-tool workflows with governance and reporting
Scope Professional →Discovery before build
Best when the pain is real but the workflow, data, approvals, or tools are not clear enough to build safely yet.
- Workflow selection and readiness check
- Integration, access, risk, and security map
- A recommended Starter/Professional path, or honest advice to wait
- You provide process walkthroughs, a tool list, pain ranking, and data/access constraints
Typically 1–2 weeks to select the workflow, risks, and path
Clarify the first workflow →First workflow examples
Start where the hours are leaking
Good first agents sit beside your existing tools and prepare work for you to approve.
Lead triage
Score new enquiries, suggest a reply, update Zoho or HubSpot, and alert the owner.
Client handoffs
Detect overdue tasks or missing updates and draft the next client note for review.
Weekly reporting
Pull Jira, Teams, docs, or dashboard context into a delivery pack with risks and decisions.
Invoice/admin prep
Prepare billing detail from resolved work and wait for human approval before sending.
Owner inbox digest
Highlight urgent email/calendar items, overdue replies, and next actions each day.
Good fit
This is worth a call if…
- Your team repeats the same triage, reporting, drafting, follow-up, or admin work every week.
- The work touches real systems, any tool with a usable API, webhook, export, database, or approved integration path.
- You want an agent that works under approval rules and scoped access, not an unsupervised chatbot.
- Someone in your business can own the workflow and judge whether the agent is useful.
Not yet
It is probably too early if…
- There is no repeatable workflow or clear business outcome yet.
- You need a fully autonomous agent making external commitments without human review.
- Your tools and data are locked away and nobody can approve access.
- You are after general AI training rather than a working system.
Buyer questions
AI Agent Setup FAQ
Straight answers to what most owners ask first.
What tools can an AI agent connect to?
Any business tool that exposes a usable API, webhook, export, database, inbox, or approved integration path. Jira, Confluence, Microsoft 365, Teams, Slack, Zoho CRM, HubSpot, Xero, QuickBooks, GitHub, and Google Workspace are established patterns, not the limit of what can be scoped.
How is the agent kept secure?
Security is built into the architecture, not added afterwards. Every agent has its own identity, least-privilege access scoped to its workflow, network isolation from the rest of your systems, and a full audit log. Sensitive actions, external sends, record changes, anything touching money, wait for your approval.
How long does setup take?
A contained first workflow usually goes live in 2–4 weeks once the process owner, tools, approval rules, and success measure are clear. Integration-heavy setups become a staged Professional path over 4–8+ weeks.
How does pricing work?
Three package paths, Starter, Professional, and Clarify scope, with effort confirmed after a short intake. Tool access, workflow complexity, and security requirements change the real scope, so we confirm rather than guess.
Will the agent act without my approval?
Only where you have explicitly allowed it. Drafting, monitoring, summarising, and preparing work run automatically; external sends, CRM updates, spend, and sensitive commitments wait in a visible approval queue until you say go.
What are OpenClaw and Hermes?
OpenClaw is the agent platform Nebulas builds on; Hermes is the orchestration layer that routes work between agents and your tools. Together they give every agent its own identity, scoped permissions, and a complete audit trail, you do not need to learn either to benefit from them.
What happens after I enquire?
You get a reply by email with a practical next-step recommendation. The form keeps your service context so the response is specific, not generic.

AI Agent Setup
We deploy an AI agent into your business to handle lead follow-up, reporting, invoicing prep, or inbox triage, connected to your tools, secured with least-privilege access, and gated by your approval.
Explore AI Agent Setup →Custom Web Apps
Dashboards, client portals, and workflow tools your team actually uses, designed around your process, shipped fast, and ready to plug AI agents into later.
Scope a web app →Agentic Consulting
Know AI could help but not where to start? We map your workflows, design the secure architecture, identity, permissions, approvals, and give you a practical adoption plan.
Discuss your roadmap →Zero-trust architecture
Security is not a feature. It is the architecture.
Most AI tools ask for broad access and hope for the best. Nebulas builds agents the way enterprises build infrastructure, on zero-trust principles, sized for SME budgets.
Every agent has its own identity
Agents authenticate as themselves, never as a shared admin account, so every action is attributable and access can be revoked in one place.
Minimum access, nothing more
Each agent gets scoped permissions to only the data and actions its workflow needs. Read where possible, write only where required.
Segmented by design
Agents run in isolated environments with controlled network paths into your systems, no broad tunnels into your business.
Logged, gated, reversible
Every action is logged. Sensitive steps, sending to customers, changing records, touching money, wait for a human to approve them first.
Why trust Nebulas

Buyer questions
Straight answers before the first call
What SME owners usually ask us first.
What kind of business is Nebulas right for?
Small and medium businesses with repeatable work across email, CRM, project tracking, finance, reporting, or customer follow-up, and an owner or operator who wants it handled without hiring more admin staff.
How fast can something useful go live?
A first agent workflow or a focused web app typically goes live in weeks, not months. We scope the smallest valuable release first and expand from there.
How do you keep AI agents secure?
Zero trust by default: each agent has its own identity, least-privilege access scoped to its workflow, network isolation, and a full audit log. Sensitive actions wait for human approval. Security is part of the architecture, not a setting.
Will an agent do things without my approval?
No. Agents draft, monitor, and prepare work automatically, but external sends, record changes, and anything touching money sit in an approval queue until you say go.
What tools can be connected?
Any tool with a workable API or approved integration path. Established patterns include Microsoft 365, Outlook, Jira, Confluence, Zoho CRM, HubSpot, Xero, QuickBooks, Google Workspace, Slack, and Teams.
Do we own what you build?
Yes. You get source ownership, documented handover, clear deployment paths, and practical operating notes, no black-box dependency on us.
