Cybersecurity-first automation

AI automation your ops team can actually trust.

We build production-ready n8n automation systems for lean teams at growing companies — custom-built, client-owned, and hardened from day one. Not demos. Not experiments.

What We Build

Production systems,
not proof-of-concepts.

Every system we ship is scoped for your environment, tested against live data, and handed to you with an audit trail your security team can actually read.

Secure Workflow Automation

Replace fragile manual handoffs and spreadsheet glue with hardened n8n workflows — credential-isolated, access-controlled, and built to survive employee turnover without exposing your stack.

Every external action uses least-privilege tokens. No shared credentials. No silent writes.

Security-Hardened AI Pipelines

Claude API-powered automations with input sanitization, PII routing rules, and human-approval gates before anything posts — LLM integrations that make your security team comfortable, not nervous.

Guardrails written in plain English, reviewed with you before deploy. Not configured after an incident.

Ops & Revenue Intelligence

Cross-system workflows connecting your CRM, support queue, and internal APIs — with tamper-evident logs you can hand to an auditor and least-privilege scoping on every connection.

Every run is signed. Roll back a single step or full workflow from the log — no database surgery.
Live Demos

AI Email Triage

Reads, categorizes, and routes every inbound email before a human touches it — with Claude API scoring urgency and a human-approval gate before anything sends.

Demo coming soon

Inbound Lead Response Automation

Responds to new form submissions within 60 seconds, qualifies the lead against your ICP, and hands a structured record to your CRM — without a sales rep lifting a finger.

Demo coming soon

AI-Scored Lead Intake and CRM Write

Scores every inbound lead against your ideal customer profile and writes a clean record directly to your CRM — so your team works the pipeline, not the inbox.

About

Built by a security engineer.
Not an automation agency.

I spent years doing SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation and Response) engineering — building automated incident response pipelines for security teams. That background changes how you think about automation. When your job is detecting and containing threats, you develop a deep instinct for what happens when automated systems touch the wrong thing.

Most automation consultancies optimize for speed of deployment. Spectreworks AI optimizes for what happens after: who can touch which credentials, what gets logged, what the rollback path is, and what your security team sees when they audit six months later.

If you're running lean and your security posture matters, you shouldn't have to choose between moving faster and sleeping well. That's the gap I built this to fill.

How We Work

Audit → Build → Deploy.
About two weeks, start to finish.

We don't hand you a template and leave. We scope the risk surface, build in shadow mode, and stay on-call once it's live.

01 / AUDIT

Free 30-min workflow audit

We map the workflow, inventory every system it touches, and identify where data exposure or access creep could happen. No assumptions, no boilerplate.

No commitment required
02 / BUILD

Shadow mode before live

Every new workflow runs silently against real data for 5–10 cycles. You review exactly what would have happened before we flip it on. Nothing ships without your sign-off.

Human sign-off at every stage
03 / DEPLOY

You own it. We stay on-call.

Your infrastructure, your credentials, your n8n instance. We hand over full ownership and remain available for monitoring, rollbacks, and scope changes — on your schedule.

Client-owned, always
Results in Production

What clients see
after we ship.

Anonymized outcomes from live systems. Real automations, real teams, real numbers.

Reduction in reconciliation time

"Invoice reconciliation went from a half-day every week to a queue I review in ten minutes. Every transaction is logged with a hash — my accountant can audit anything without calling me."

Lead response time (was 6–48 hrs)

"New leads get a personalized response in under a minute, qualified against our ICP, and a clean record in HubSpot before a rep ever sees it. Inbound close rate up 30% since deploy."

Manual handoffs for 90+ days running

"Document intake, routing, and acknowledgment are fully automated. I haven't touched a routing spreadsheet since go-live. The audit log gives my compliance team exactly what they need."

Pricing

Scope-based pricing.
