So we built some technology that combines online targeting with offline direct mail media in the best of both worlds. We currently niche and target the 2000 new startups born in the UK per day for clients in insurance, banking and real estate sectors among a few others. Small remote team and near perfect automation.

After months of working with lawyers, developers, investors, consultants, regulators I'm pleased to say - we could and we have. Dead easy, fun if you squint your eyes and have enough coffee - GDPRi.co [Brilliant Failure 💣] I was getting fed up seeing friends get invoices for 'miscellaneous GDPR activity' at £7K a pop (true story) mid 2017 so decided to see if we could decode the Regulations and recode them into a SaaS product for SMEs.
