I’m Malcolm Gibb, and I founded flowio with a clear mission: to empower teams and businesses with intelligent, AI-powered growth solutions and smart automations.

We’re a UK-based AI Automation Agency that specialises in eliminating manual bottlenecks, streamlining workflows, and enhancing operational capabilities for digital marketing agencies, SMBs, and solopreneurs.

Artificial Intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and over the past 12 months, we’ve seen exponential breakthroughs in everything from no-code web development to advanced AI agents and automation tools. These technologies now offer businesses the opportunity to simplify complex processes, unlock efficiency, and accelerate growth like never before.

At flowio, we help you harness that potential – strategically, securely, and at speed.

The Story Behind flowio

After years of leading paid media and performance teams in agency environments, I saw the same challenges repeated: manual processes that stifled growth, difficulty implementing scalable solutions, tight margins limiting innovation, and constant turnover of both staff and clients. These aren’t isolated problems – they’re systemic across the agency world.

And it wasn’t just agencies. Client-side businesses struggled too: slow-moving processes, technical constraints, broken tracking setups, fragmented data across platforms, and the inability to unify insights. It was sometimes painfully hard to help clients achieve the performance they wanted, when the foundational building blocks just weren’t there.

With the rise of AI and accessible low/no-code technologies, businesses now have the opportunity to overcome these limitations, by automating tedious tasks, connecting data sources, and augmenting their capabilities faster than ever before.

The challenge? Implementation.

Despite the potential, most organisations struggle to adopt AI effectively due to limited time, skills, resources, or internal buy-in. Meanwhile, the pace of change accelerates, and competitors aren’t waiting.

A recent study by McKinsey & Company in 2025 showed that although 92% of companies plan to increase AI investment over the next three years, only 1% consider themselves “mature” in AI integration.

Meanwhile, an even more recent study from Hays Salary 2025 study that asked over 10,000 employers in the UK found that only 29% of UK employers were advising their employees to use AI tools or implementing AI systems into workflows.

These statistics show that businesses in the UK are struggling with AI adoption, whether due to AI readiness in their organisation, or skillsets required to implement robust systems.

That’s where flowio comes in.

flowio specialise exclusively in helping organisations discover, design, build, and deploy AI-powered automations, low-code tools, AI agents, and intelligent workflows. We act as an AI growth partner agency, diving deep into organisational bottlenecks, processes, and objectives to deliver scalable, secure, and reliable AI systems that transform internal processes, and return proven ROI metrics.

At flowio, we’re not here to replace people – we empower them. While others focus on cutting headcount, the real competitive edge lies with those who use AI to amplify their teams and unlock growth.

AI Growth Consultancy

Not every organisation requires full-scale AI automation or custom development. Often, what’s most valuable is expert guidance, whether it’s choosing the right AI tech stack, navigating internal security considerations such as compliance or GDPR risks, or simply making sense of a rapidly evolving AI landscape.

At flowio, we provide AI Growth Consultancy to help businesses confidently adopt and scale AI where it matters most. From strategic advice to practical implementation planning, we empower teams to make informed decisions and unlock growth – without getting distracted from the day-to-day operations that keep the business moving.
