An AI Workforce for a Small Business in Woking: What the Phrase Means at a Dental Front Desk
It sounds grand. In practice it means each AI agent takes one job on the desk and passes the rest to a person.
Dean Keating sets up an AI workforce for small businesses in Surrey remotely from Horndean, Hampshire: AI agents that each take one desk job, installed in the tools you already use, with training and support. It is installed for you, not handed over. Call or WhatsApp 07418 627304.

The headline on ai-agent.deankeating.com says “I’ll build you an AI workforce”, and the site describes it as installed for you, not handed over. Nobody else defines it, so here is what it means on the page.
It means AI agents, each given one job from the list of desk work in a business. Together they cover the jobs someone would otherwise do between everything else.
The jobs
His website lists the jobs the agents take on:
- replying to new enquiries within minutes, day or night
- following up every lead until they book or say no
- sending quotes and chasing unanswered ones
- booking jobs into the diary
- answering common questions across email, web and WhatsApp
- sorting and routing messages
- sending updates, confirmations and reminders
- escalating to a person
- raising invoices and chasing late payments
- copying details between systems
- the weekly report
No business needs all of them. That is why the work starts with a single task.
A dental front desk
The directory lists five dental practices on its Dentists page, the largest group in the directory (10 October 2026). Picture the front desk of one. Over a day it deals with new patient enquiries, requests to move appointments, reminders, questions about opening hours and the end-of-week figures.
Split into jobs, it might look like this:
- One agent replies to a new enquiry and asks the usual details.
- One sends confirmations and reminders for booked visits.
- One sorts the inbox and routes a message to the right person.
- One produces the weekly report.
Each does a defined job and no more. Anything that touches a patient’s care goes to a member of staff, and every agent has a hand-over to a person.
What it is not
It is not a replacement for the people who run the practice. It does not answer the phone. It is not a course, and not a chatbot product you subscribe to.
How it is put in place
Four steps: a free call, an audit of the work worth automating, the build and install, then training and support. He begins with the single task that makes the biggest difference and adds from there if you want. At the end of the free call you hold a plan you could use with or without him.
Where he works from
He is based in Horndean, Hampshire, north of Portsmouth, so the work is remote. His website says he can visit businesses in Hampshire or nearby in person. No price list is published; the cost follows the free call, with no obligation. Compare it with other providers before deciding.
