We map your operation and prioritise the 3–5 biggest AI opportunities — you leave with an action plan and estimated ROI.
For those who want clarity before investing.

For those who want to see value fast.
The founder as department head and senior engineers embedded in your operation: we maintain, optimise and build new automations, month after month. We work with 5 clients at a time.
For those looking for a long-term partner.
Unlocking Tech is founded and led by Miguel Marques, an engineer with 18 years of experience designing and shipping software to production.
Today, UT delivers digital and AI transformation for founders and CEOs who want a partner who thinks for the business, not one who just executes tasks. In practice, the head of your AI department — without having to hire one.
We don't start building before understanding what can go wrong. Every step exists to reduce risk — not to create a feeling of progress.
20 minutes. We identify the three biggest technical risks and the main blocker. You leave with a written action plan.
Analysis of your operation, an ROI-prioritised roadmap and an architected solution. You leave with a clear plan of what to do next.
First fixed-scope project or automation and AI implementation. Defined scope, controlled risk, validated delivery.
We become your AI department, without the hire: the founder as department head and senior engineers embedded in your operation, shipping month after month.
Tried agencies or freelancers that promised a lot and shipped something nobody can maintain? That’s exactly what this process avoids.

The AI roadmap has a fixed cost of €1,000 and delivers an analysis of your operation, an ROI-prioritised roadmap and a documented solution architecture. If we move forward together, that amount is credited in the first month.
If the output doesn't match the agreed scope, the full amount is refunded in full. That's what lets us turn down roadmaps that don't make sense — and lets you engage with controlled risk.
Roadmap prioritised by ROI and impact.
Detailed analysis and solution architecture.
Full money-back guarantee if we don't deliver.
It depends on scope. We always start with the free 20-min diagnostic; if you move forward, the roadmap has a fixed cost (money-back guarantee) and projects or the retainer are sized to what you need. No surprises.
That's the most common problem we solve. The difference is real engineering: we take AI from "works sometimes" to a reliable system in production, accountable for the outcome — not a demo.
Yes — most of our clients are exactly like this. We speak the language of the business and the founder acts as your head of AI. You bring the problem, we handle the rest.
The diagnostic is 20 minutes. From there, the first delivery lands in weeks, not months — and work starts in days, not hiring cycles.
Yes. The code and solutions are yours, with no vendor lock-in.
Yes. We integrate with your stack (CRM, ERP, spreadsheets, internal tools) and use the right models for each case (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google).
Yes. We are ISO 27001 certified and GDPR-compliant: your data stays under your control, is never used to train models, and every access is auditable. It's the same standard we apply with healthcare and industrial clients.
No pitch, no forced proposal. Leave the context and a senior engineer replies the same day.
