PWood Group

Hand off the work.Keep the decisions.

PWood Group builds and runs AI agents that sort email, file documents, enter invoices and draft replies. Anything that matters waits for your approval.

The panel is a sample run. When the agent asks, press Approve or Hold.

From first call to a running agent

You see the agent handle your own work before it runs on its own.

  1. 1

    A 20-minute call

    Tell Phil the task. He'll ask how it's done today and what a good result looks like.

  2. 2

    A build on your examples

    The agent is built against real samples of your work, so you see it handle your files, not a demo.

  3. 3

    A supervised start

    At first the agent asks before every step. As it earns trust, you decide what it may do alone.

  4. 4

    A monthly retainer

    Phil keeps it running, fixes what breaks when your tools change, and adds new jobs as you find them.

Built to ask first

Every agent follows the same four rules.

They ask before they act.
Payments, messages to clients and anything you mark as sensitive wait for your approval.
They work in your tools.
Your email, calendar, files and accounting. Nothing to migrate and no new logins for your team.
They keep a record.
Every step is logged, so you can see what was done, when and why.
You can switch them off.
Pause or remove an agent at any time. Your data and its configuration stay yours.
Phil Wood, founder of PWood Group

You work with Phil directly.

PWood Group is small by design. The person who scopes your work is the person who builds it and keeps it running.

“I build agents the way I'd want one built for my own week: careful with your data, honest about what it can do, and always asking before anything leaves your hands.”

Questions

What kind of work can an agent take on?

Repetitive work with clear inputs: sorting and filing email, entering invoices, assembling reports, preparing onboarding paperwork and drafting routine replies. If you can show five examples of the task, it's usually a good candidate.

What does it cost?

Most engagements are a one-time setup fee plus a monthly retainer. Builds & Advisory work is a fixed price. Either way, you get a fixed quote after a 20-minute call.

Where does my data go?

Agents work inside the accounts you already use. With Private Agents, your files and history stay on hardware you own. Only the text a step needs is sent to the AI model, over an encrypted connection.

What if the agent makes a mistake?

Anything consequential waits for your approval. Slips on routine steps are logged, reported to you and fixed in the workflow.

Do we need new software?

No. Agents work with your existing email, calendar, files and accounting tools.

Who will I work with?

Phil, directly, from the first call to the monthly check-ins.

What's one task you'd hand off this week?

Describe it in a sentence or two. Phil reads every one and replies by email.

Next you'll add your name and email.
