Automate the repeatable work your operation runs on.

Coastal Munro installs a team of AI Assistants for industrial and manufacturing operations — handling the admin, scheduling, quoting, reporting and day-to-day procedures your business repeats constantly, built around the systems you already run.

The Week-Back Install™ — a measured, 30-day install that takes the repeatable work off your team and puts it on rails, built around how you already work.

Designed and installed in person by the founder — an operations engineer by background. Built around your existing systems. Your team changes nothing about how they work.

// The problem

Your operation runs on people doing the same work by hand.

The bigger the operation, the more of it runs on memory and manual effort — the reorders, the scheduling, the quoting, the reporting, the chasing. It works, until someone's stretched, away, or leaves.

It only runs because someone remembers

Key processes live in one or two people's heads. When they're busy or out, things stall, slip, or get done inconsistently.

The same work, by hand, every day

Quoting, scheduling, reordering, reporting — done manually and repeatedly, soaking up hours that should go to the actual work.

Things fall through

Renewals lapse, follow-ups get missed, margin leaks on jobs — not from carelessness, just from sheer volume.

// Your AI assistant team

A team of specialists for the work you repeat.

Not one chatbot doing everything badly — a small team of AI Assistants, each with a clear job, each reporting to a person. Custom to your operation, built during the install.

INBOX-01

The Inbox Assistant

Email triage & drafting

Reads every email, triages what actually matters, and drafts replies in your voice — built from a private “Brain” profile of how your people write, what matters, and who the key contacts are.

Nothing sends itself. A person approves every reply.

QUOTE-02

The Quoting Assistant

Quotes, same day

Speak or send the job and a complete quote is drafted from your own price book — itemised, priced, and ready to approve the same day.

You set the prices. You send the quote.

SCHED-03

The Scheduling Assistant

Calendar & bookings

Handles bookings, reschedules, confirmations and reminders — all around your scheduling rules.

Your rules decide what's bookable, and when.

BRIEF-04

The Meeting Assistant

Prep & follow-up

Before every meeting: a one-page brief on who you're seeing, the open threads, and what needs deciding. After: the follow-ups drafted.

You decide what's said, and what's sent.

CUSTOM

Custom assistants

Built for your operation

Designed in the install for whatever your operation repeats most — chasing invoices, supplier comms, reporting, onboarding.

You decide what each one is allowed to do.

In the apps your team already uses

Your assistants work over text, WhatsApp, Teams, Slack or email. No new dashboard to learn and no system to live in.

Built around your existing systems

Wired into your inbox, calendar, scheduling and the tools you already run. Your team changes nothing about how they work.

// How the install works

Three weeks. Your repeatable work, on rails.

  1. 01 Week 1

    The Time Audit

    In person, we map where your operation's time actually goes — the repeatable tasks, who does them, how long they take. No obligation.

  2. 02 Days 2–30

    The install

    We build your AI Assistant team around how you already work — wired into your existing systems. Your team keeps working; it takes shape in the background.

  3. 03 Day 30

    The review

    We sit down and look at what's now off your team's plate, what's running smoothly, and which procedures are worth automating next.

// Going deeper · for established operations

Once the basics are handled, we automate the operation itself.

The install takes the repeatable admin off your team. Business on Autopilot goes deeper — the operating procedures your operation actually runs on, handled by a dedicated set of AI Assistants. For established operations, after the install.

Portrait of Andy Batey, founder of Coastal Munro

// Who builds it

Built by industry integrity.

“I spent years working as an engineer in the oil and gas sector — at ExxonMobil and Phillips 66 — where real money and hard deadlines rode on the operation running right. I know where the repeatable work piles up in an operation. Now I build a team of AI Assistants that takes that work off your people.”
— Andy Batey, Founder
