MEET YOUR CONSULTANT

You’ll work with me — not a junior team

I’m Rupert van Zyl. I founded ialytics after more than twenty years building data platforms, BI and AI for South African organisations. I still do the work myself: the person on your strategy call is the person who designs the model, builds the dashboard and stays on the line when a number looks wrong.

I’m based in Durbanville. I work South African hours. I pick tools that fit your team (Power BI, Looker Studio, Xero, Sage, HubSpot, Shopify) rather than whatever a vendor is pushing this quarter.

WORK, NOT THEORY

Two problems I keep seeing. Two ways they get solved.

One picture of the business

South African executive team

The exec team could not see the business in one place. Project mail, contracts in the document system, the accounting pack, and the project tool each told a different story. Problems landed late, usually as a surprise.

I built a warehouse and decision-support layer over those four sources, so delivery, money and obligations sit in a single view. An AI layer on top summarises what changed, flags likely issues early, and reads contractual obligations against the actual email on each project.

They monitor the work as it happens, instead of reconciling four exports after the fact.

Invoices that capture themselves

Finance team

Month-end meant sitting with a pile of invoices and typing them into Excel. It took days. It also put every figure one keystroke away from being wrong.

I built a scan that reads the invoices and writes them straight into their Excel workspace. Same pack they already used. No re-keying.

Days of capture work came off the month, and the typing errors went with them.

A few hours of consulting and a small AI tool can quietly remove hundreds of hours of manual work. A few of the things we build for clients:

Documents → data: pulling key figures out of PDFs, statements and forms automatically, so teams stop re-typing what a machine can read.

Reporting on autopilot: turning a messy monthly spreadsheet shuffle into a dashboard that updates itself.

Inbox/triage: sorting and routing incoming requests automatically so the right person gets the right thing without manual sorting.
