Senior-led, AI-powered, human-accountable
How we use AI
AI does the heavy lifting with the data. Senior partners make the decisions and stand behind them.
Large firms use AI too. What is different at Octobiz is the model built around it: Senior operators instead of a junior pyramid, a first rescue plan draft before the first day on site, and a fixed fee instead of an open clock. This page shows the real workflow and how we protect your data.
The workflow
What AI does, and what people do
Every step has a named owner. AI never sends anything to a client that a partner has not reviewed.
Step 01 of 06
Mandate and data request
A partner agrees scope and NDA with you. You receive a structured data request and questionnaire, and upload into a secure data room.
Data preparation
Our tools read, clean and reconcile financial statements, management accounts, open items and bank data. What took analysts a week takes hours, and gaps become visible early.
Diagnostics
RXI™ types the distress. Models analyze liquidity, margin bridges, working capital and peer benchmarks. Analysts check every anomaly.
Rescue plan draft
AI drafts the 13-week cash view, a measures catalog with cash and EBITDA effect and a first board storyline. Partners rewrite, cut and prioritize.
On site
Interviews, site walks and workshops. Judgment, negotiation and leadership stay human, and so does the final plan.
Rescue Monitor
During execution, AI watches cash and KPIs every week and raises early warnings. A partner signs off the monthly report to board and lenders.

Why “AI-powered” and not “AI-driven”
In a crisis, nobody wants a plan written by a machine. AI makes our partners faster and more thorough. It does not replace their judgment, their presence or their accountability.
Who builds our tools
Our own AI development team, led by James Kowalske, builds and maintains RXI™ and the internal tools behind diagnostics and monitoring.
How we handle your data
Crisis data is the most sensitive data a company has
These commitments are part of every engagement letter.
NDA first
No data moves before a signed non-disclosure agreement. Many clients share a first overview anonymously.
Confidential by contract
Our engagement letters and our agreements with freelance partners include confidentiality obligations.
No training on your data
Client data is never used to train AI models.
Retention and deletion
You decide what happens to your data after the mandate. On request we delete it and confirm the deletion in writing.
Human review
No AI output reaches you, your board or your lenders without partner review.
Cyprus and EU law
We are a Cyprus company, subject to the GDPR and Cyprus Law 125(I)/2018.
Confidential · Senior-led · Fixed fee to start
Speed from AI. Judgment from people. Accountability from us.
Every request is read by a partner and answered personally, in strict confidence. One conversation is enough to know whether we can help.
