Why people call
You are probably here because of one of these.
None of them are technology problems, strictly. They are decisions that have outgrown the person currently making them.
-
01
AI is on the agenda and there is no answer
A client, investor or board member has asked what you are doing about AI. The honest answer is "some people are using it, we think".
-
02
A deal has stalled in procurement
The price was agreed weeks ago. Then a security questionnaire and a vendor risk assessment arrived, and nothing has moved since.
-
03
Technology keeps landing on the wrong desk
A founder, an operations lead or the finance director is making architecture and supplier decisions alongside their actual job.
-
04
You cannot evidence your own security
You have MFA, backups and endpoint protection. What you do not have is proof they are applied everywhere, or a plan for the first hour of an incident.
-
05
Software spend has quietly compounded
Nobody can produce a single list of what you pay for each month, which renewals are coming, or what you could switch off tomorrow.
-
06
A supplier has no counterparty
Your development agency or offshore team reports to nobody technical, so scope, quality and cost are effectively self-assessed.
What we do
Six things we are engaged for.
Most engagements start with one and widen. All of them are advisory and delivery oversight, we are not reselling software and we take no vendor commission.
AI Adoption & Automation
Find the two or three processes where automation pays for itself, prove it on your own data, then roll it out with guardrails.
Cyber Risk & Governance
An independent read on where you actually stand, expressed as business risk with a prioritised plan the board can approve.
Fractional CTO / CIO / CISO
Senior technology judgement by the month: roadmap, architecture, spend control, security ownership and hiring.
Enterprise & Supplier Readiness
Clear security questionnaires and vendor risk reviews quickly, with a reusable evidence pack instead of a scramble.
Technology Due Diligence
Before you buy, invest or sign: what is really built, what it will cost to keep running, and which risks transfer to you.
Vendor, Spend & Contract Review
What you spend on software and services in total, what you can stop paying for, and where a contract has you locked in.
The flagship engagement
The AI & Technology Readiness Review.
Two to three weeks of structured assessment across your systems, suppliers, security posture and process load. It exists because almost every business that calls us needs the same first thing: an honest, independent picture of where they actually stand, and an ordered list of what to fix.
The output is yours outright. Plenty of clients take the plan and run it themselves, and that is a perfectly good outcome.
What you receive
- 01Systems, data and supplier inventory, what you run and who can reach it
- 02Security posture mapped to the Essential Eight and Cyber Essentials themes
- 03Ranked AI and automation opportunities with estimated hours recovered
- 04Business risk register with owners, mitigation cost and target dates
- 05Sequenced 90-day plan and 12-month roadmap
- 06One board-ready summary document, presented live
What typically blocks the deal
- A 200-line security questionnaire with no owner
- No data processing agreement or sub-processor list
- Backups that exist but have never been test-restored
- No documented incident response or notification path
- Access still active for people who left last year
- Nothing in writing about where client data is stored
Enterprise deal readiness
The contract is agreed. Procurement is where it dies.
Selling to a large organisation means passing a vendor risk assessment, an InfoSec review and a supplier onboarding portal. Businesses lose months there, not on price, and not on product.
We build the evidence pack and answer library once, close the small number of gaps that genuinely hold deals up, and sit on the assessment calls with you. Answers are accurate and defensible, because a control you claimed and cannot demonstrate costs you the account later.
Practical AI experience
We use the tools we recommend.
Our own advisory work runs on the same retrieval, drafting and automation patterns we put into client businesses. That is the whole basis of the advice: we have found where these tools break.
Retrieval over your own documents
Contracts, policies, technical manuals and historic quotes made searchable in plain language, with citations back to the source file so answers can be checked.
Drafting with mandatory review
First-pass proposals, tender responses and questionnaire answers generated from your existing approved material, then reviewed by a named person before it leaves the building.
Back-office automation
Classification, extraction and routing of the repetitive inbound work (invoices, forms, tickets, applications) that currently consumes a person for part of every day.
Evaluation before rollout
Every use case is scored on your real cases before it is trusted: accuracy, failure modes, cost per task, and what happens when it gets one wrong.
What we will not do is tell you AI replaces your team, or sell you a platform before anyone has agreed what problem it solves. Where the answer is "not yet", we say so. There is no licence revenue in it for us either way.
Who you work with
Founder-led, and it stays that way.
Omonix was founded by Omar Todd and engagements are run personally. The person on your discovery call is the person who does the assessment, writes the plan, sits in your board meeting and answers the phone when something breaks.
There is no pitch team who then hand you to a junior, no account manager layer between you and the work, and no incentive to inflate scope, a fractional model only works if you keep renewing it. Where a piece of work needs a specialist we do not have, we bring one in and say so, rather than learning on your budget.
“Senior Technology Leadership. AI-Powered Execution.”
How it works
Four steps, and you can stop after any of them.
-
01Free · 30 minutes
Discovery call
You describe the situation. We tell you whether we are the right people, and what we would look at first. No deck, no obligation.
-
022–3 weeks
Readiness review
Fixed scope and fixed fee. Interviews, systems and supplier inventory, risk assessment, and a ranked list of what to do about it.
-
03One document
Prioritised plan
A 90-day plan and a 12-month roadmap with owners, costs and sequencing, written so a non-technical board can approve it.
-
04Ongoing or scoped
Execution support
We stay on as your fractional technology lead, deliver a specific programme, or hand over to your team. All three are legitimate endings.
Engagement options
Three ways to work with us.
Fees are quoted after the discovery call, once the scope is real. We would rather price something we understand than publish a number that turns out to be wrong for you.
Readiness Review
Fixed scope · fixed fee
Suits you if
You need an independent read on where you stand before committing budget, and a plan you can take to a board or an insurer.
Includes
Assessment, risk register, ranked opportunities, 90-day plan, live presentation.

Monthly retainer · 2–6 days a month
Most engagements

Roadmap ownership, architecture and supplier oversight, security governance, board reporting, hiring support.
Project Delivery
Scoped programme
Suits you if
There is a specific outcome with a deadline, an enterprise onboarding, a migration, a due diligence exercise, a first AI rollout.
Includes
Defined deliverables, milestones and a named lead from first call to handover.
Next step
Thirty minutes, and a straight answer.
Bring the actual problem, the stalled deal, the questionnaire, the AI question you cannot answer. We will tell you what we would look at first, roughly what it takes, and whether you need us at all.
