# A family business in Somerset. AI does most of the work, and we check it.

- Based in: Wells, Somerset
- Working with: firms in Somerset, Devon and the South West, starting with accountants in Devon
- Run by: Charlie Cowan, a sole trader trading as Openkept

## A note on why we started
Good local firms lose clients they never hear from. Their websites don't help people find them, choose them or get in touch, so the right prospects go elsewhere and the wrong ones ring.

Openkept rebuilds those websites around three steps: found, qualified and contacted. Then it reports every month on what the site brought in.

Charlie Cowan, founder.

## Who does what
- **The agent** finds firms, runs growth checks, writes, builds and tests.
- **A person** takes the calls, checks every preview and approves every change.
- **Charlie Cowan** designed the system and handles anything difficult.

## What we'll never do
- Pretend the agent is a person
- Invent facts about your firm
- Promise results we can't measure
- Make AI phone calls

## We're new
No client logos yet. Instead: your own free growth check, published prices, and a monthly report as our proof.

## The name
Open about how we work; your site kept up to date.
