The workspeaks first.
8 products. Some built by us, some built by founders we mentored. Every one of them real, and most of them live.
Kerbco
Dougie runs Maybury Landscaping across Edinburgh, Fife and central Scotland. We mentored him while he built Kerbco, a specialist dropped-kerb business that was earning money within two weeks of launch. The leads now come in so fast he has hired someone to handle them. His next venture is bigger: an AI-centred CRM for landscaping businesses, built from the pain points he knows first-hand, with Summone mentoring and guiding the design.

Bear Media
Garry runs Bear Media, a photography, video and drone studio across West Lothian and Edinburgh. We mentored him on Google Business Profile optimisation, AEO and SEO, then on an AI coding-agent workflow he used to design and build his new interactive multimedia site himself. He also shoots and fine-tunes video for SummLabs, so the mentoring runs both ways.

Leadhaus
Tahar built Leadhaus with us mentoring him and pointing him at where the real opportunity was. Lead generation is the bloodline of any business, so he built an all-in-one service rather than another tool: he finds the leads and starts every client with 10,000, runs the cold-email sending and sequencing in-house, and writes the scripts that turn those leads into sales.

TheCog.fit
Ali is a cyclist, and the idea came from inside the community: a global platform where cyclists buy, sell and rent bikes, parts and gear, join planning groups and organise events, in any language, anywhere in the world. We supported him through the whole journey, planning, design, build and testing, and made it look like a platform people will hand their money to. SummLabs is now taking on the promotion and paid social.

SummLabs
Making one AI video today means chaining convoluted steps: writing the prompt, building a storyboard, then rendering it, with a different tool at every stage. Most people stop at step one. SummLabs takes a plain brief and runs the whole pipeline on the latest imaging and video generation models, so a non-technical user gets a finished, ready-to-post video. Proof the methodology ships real products.

AI Visibility Scanner
Customers now ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Claude for recommendations, and most businesses have no idea whether they show up, or whether a competitor shows up instead. We built a tool that runs your business through the AI engines, scores your visibility, shows who is being recommended in your place, and tells you what to fix. We run it on ourselves first. This page is part of what it told us to do.

Bloodwork App
The longevity and biohacking crowd run peptides, TRT and stacks of supplements, then get bloodwork back with no clear read on whether any of it is actually working. We're building an app that reads those results, treats each biomarker as a near real-time snapshot of what's happening inside them, and shows whether their enhancements are moving the numbers, in plain language. Proof that AI can make expert knowledge usable by anyone.

Crawl4AI
We tested Crawl4AI as a pay-as-you-go route for our research workflows. Early comparisons with Firecrawl showed missing plan prices. We reported the gaps to the founder, retested his fixes on the same pages, and within about a day the pricing results had improved substantially. On the pages we checked, it now performs on a par with Firecrawl. The trial ran to 31 October. We now use it for document research, and we keep checking pricing pages.
