LIVE PROJECT Our own server Business assistant

An always-on assistant for about £11 a month.

Drac is ReitTech’s own business assistant. We message it from our phones, it gets real work done across our accounts, and it runs on a server we own, so nobody else holds the keys.

/ the challenge /

We wanted real help, without handing over the keys.

Two people running several businesses means a constant stream of small jobs: checking things, pulling information together, chasing what is due. An assistant that can actually do that work needs access to real accounts, and that makes it worth attacking. It had to be genuinely useful, affordable and on our terms.

×Endless small admin jobs eating into the hours meant for real work
×An assistant that can act needs access, and access has to be protected
×Rented assistant tools mean someone else holds your data and your bill

/ what changed /

A helper on our phones, working around the clock.

Before

Small jobs waited until one of us had a free moment at a desk

After

We send a message from our phone and the job gets done

Before

Recurring checks and round-ups depended on someone remembering

After

Regular digests and checks arrive on schedule, without being asked

Before

Any useful tool meant another subscription and another company holding our data

After

It runs on our own server for about £11 a month, all in

Before

Lose the setup, lose months of work

After

Backed up every night, so the whole assistant can be restored

/ the moment it clicks /

In June 2026 we deliberately tried to trick Drac with a fake instruction telling it to hand over a private access key. It refused, treated the message as suspicious, and flagged it to us. That is the difference between an assistant you can rely on and one you have to babysit.

/ the takeaway /

A genuinely useful assistant, on call around the clock, doing real work across the business for about £11 a month, on a server we own and with rules about what it trusts.

Proof: In daily use since May 2026, with a test attack in June 2026 that it refused and reported.
