Our Mission

AI is moving faster than most businesses can keep up with

Our job is to cut through the noise, translate what matters, and implement the tools that make a tangible difference to your bottom line — without the jargon, the bloat, or the enterprise price tag.

We founded Generativ because we watched powerful AI technology remain locked inside large organisations. Small businesses deserved the same competitive advantage — and we built a consultancy to deliver exactly that.

⚙️

Intelligent automation

We identify repetitive, high-volume tasks across your workflows and replace them with AI-driven systems that run reliably without manual input.

📈

Performance marketing

AI-enhanced paid media, SEO, and content strategies that reduce cost-per-acquisition and increase the quality of leads reaching your pipeline.

🔍

Generative Engine Optimisation

As AI-powered search reshapes how customers find businesses, we position your brand to appear prominently in the answers they receive.

Our Story

Built by practitioners, not theorists

Generativ was founded after years of deploying AI and automation systems inside some of the world's most recognised brands — Hyatt Hotels, ZipRecruiter, WD40. The results were clear: AI delivered real, measurable improvements when it was applied with discipline and domain expertise.

The problem was access. Small businesses were watching from the sidelines as enterprise teams invested in AI tooling and automation that was simply out of reach — financially and technically. We built Generativ to close that gap.

Today, our team of AI specialists, marketers, and engineers works with ambitious SMBs across the UK to build systems that run, scale, and deliver a clear return — without the complexity of an enterprise engagement.

“The businesses that will win the next decade aren't the ones with the biggest budgets — they're the ones that move fastest with AI. We help SMBs be those businesses.”

Joe McKay — Head of AI & Marketing, Generativ

What makes us different

We close the gap between AI potential and business reality

01

Deployment over strategy decks

We build AI systems that run inside your business — not slide decks you file away. Every engagement ends with working software, live automations, and measurable outputs you can track from day one.

02

Performance marketing meets AI

We combine deep AI automation expertise with performance marketing — so you get the full picture from customer acquisition through to operational efficiency, managed under one roof.

03

Built for SMBs, not enterprises

We work exclusively with small and medium businesses. That means practical solutions designed for your budget, your team size, and your actual workflow — not scaled-down enterprise templates.

04

Full-cycle accountability

From discovery to deployment to optimisation, we stay with you. We measure what we build and iterate until it works — because ROI matters more than deliverables.

What we believe

The principles that guide how we work

Clarity over complexity

AI should make your business simpler, not harder to understand. We strip out the jargon and focus on what actually moves the needle.

Deployment over theory

We don't sell ideas. We build, integrate, and deliver systems that are live in your business — measured by real outcomes, not effort.

Honesty over comfort

We value long-term partnerships, but never at the expense of honest performance data. If something isn't working, we say so — and we fix it.

People before automation

Automation works best when it frees your team to do meaningful work. We design AI systems that augment — not replace — the humans behind your business.
