B³ (cubed) — Baseline · Blueprint · Benchwork · Launching 2027

Reliable data your business can trust.

We build secure databases, dashboards and automation for small and growing businesses. Tested like an experiment, private by design.

Launching in 2027. Send us a message to hear when we open.

How we work

Three principles, one foundation

Three principles, with privacy underneath all of them. Reliable data first, then automation you can trust.

01 · Baseline

We measure before we change anything.

We map where your data lives, how accurate it is and who can access it, so every improvement can be proven.

02 · Blueprint

We design before we build.

Scope, price and success measures are agreed first. Access rights, encryption and data minimisation are designed in, not added later.

03 · Benchwork

We test everything like an experiment.

Data, pipelines, models and access controls are all tested before you rely on them.

Foundation · Privacy by design

Your data stays protected at every step, from the first conversation to the final handover.

What we do

Four services, one ladder

What we will offer from 2027: four fixed-price services. Start where you are: with advice, a check of what you have, or a build.

Advisory

Independent advice, without touching your systems. We review a supplier's proposal, help you choose tools, define your KPIs or map out a data roadmap. You or your supplier do the work; we make sure it's the right work.

Strategy session · Proposal second opinion · Roadmap workshop · Monthly advisor

Data & Automation Audit

A short, read-only review of your data and manual workflows. We find where time and money leak, check data quality and privacy, and give you a prioritised roadmap with estimated hours saved.

Data quick scan · Full audit · GDPR and data governance check

Data Foundations

One reliable source of truth, built from scratch if you don't have one yet. You get a dashboard your team actually uses, on data you can trust.

Data migration · Extra dashboards · Hardware and infrastructure advice

AI & Advanced Analytics

Answers and automation built on clean data. Insight: statistics, forecasting and experiments that tell you what drives your numbers. Automation: AI workflows for documents, email and reporting, always with human review and validation.

Forecasting · A/B test design · Model and AI health check · Document processing · Local AI (LLM) set-up advice

Signature package

Product Data Blueprint

Our flagship build, from scattered files to one monitored, secure database.

  • Database designed and set up from scratch
  • Your key apps and spreadsheets connected (CRM, accounting, webshop)
  • Automated updates, hourly or daily
  • Automated data tests on every change, plus monitoring with alerts
  • One dashboard with your core KPIs, plus documentation and training

Building a device?

Launching a sensor, lab instrument or connected (IoT) device? Your product needs data infrastructure from day one: reliable ingestion, time-series storage, quality checks and secure access for your customers. We design the architecture, validate calibration and data quality, and build pilot pipelines with trusted technical partners.

Launching in 2027. Every project will be quoted as a written, fixed-price proposal.

Your project, step by step

How projects will work

  1. Free 30-minute call

    Tell us what's slowing you down. We'll say honestly whether we can help, and how.

  2. Fixed-price proposal

    Within a week you get a written scope, timeline and price. Nothing starts until you agree.

  3. Build and validate

    We deliver in small steps and test every result against your real data, keeping you updated as we go.

  4. Handover and support

    You get documentation, training and full ownership. Optional monthly care keeps everything running.

Privacy & security by design

Your data stays yours.

Built into every project, in line with the GDPR, NIS2 and the EU AI Act.

Only what's needed

We work with anonymised, pseudonymised or synthetic data wherever possible.

A contract for your data

Every project includes a data processing agreement. You stay in control; we only process data on your instructions.

European hosting

We use EU-hosted tools by default, and never send your data to AI services that train on it.

Least-privilege access

Accounts issued by you, multi-factor authentication everywhere, encrypted devices, no passwords in plain text.

Clean exit

At the end of a project we remove our access, delete your data and confirm it in writing.

Straight answers

If something goes wrong, we tell you immediately, so you can meet your own reporting duties.

About

Built by a scientist, for businesses.

B³ Data Lab was founded by a healthcare scientist with 10 years of experience working with data. In healthcare, a wrong number can change a decision about a patient, so data has to be accurate, secure and properly validated before anyone relies on it.

We bring that same discipline to small and growing businesses in every sector. Most data and automation projects start with tools. Ours start with a simple question: can you trust the data? Once the answer is yes, we build the dashboards, analytics and automation that save your team real time.

FAQ

Questions we often hear

We don't have a database yet. Can you build one?

Yes, that's exactly what our Product Data Blueprint is for. We design and set up a secure database from scratch, connect your spreadsheets and apps (CRM, accounting, webshop) through their APIs, and automate the updates. Monitoring with alerts checks that your data keeps flowing and stays correct. Most businesses only need updates every hour or every day; if you truly need real-time data, we scope it separately.

Who do you work with?

Small and medium-sized businesses in any sector, usually with 5 to 250 people, that run on spreadsheets and a handful of apps and want more reliable numbers.

Do you work with clients abroad?

Yes. We work fully online, with clients anywhere.

What does "fixed price" include?

Everything in the agreed scope: the work, documentation and the training listed in your proposal. Anything extra is quoted before we start it.

How do you handle our data?

Under a data processing agreement, on EU-hosted tools, and deleted at the end. Details in Privacy & security above.

We don't have much data. Is this for us?

Probably. Most value comes from getting the basics right, not from big data. A free call or a quick scan will tell you where you stand.

Do we need to buy new software?

Not usually. We start with the tools you already have and only recommend new ones when they clearly pay off.

Can you set up AI on our own hardware?

We advise on hardware and private, local AI set-ups so sensitive data never leaves your premises. Implementation is scoped per project.

Do you work with hardware and sensor companies?

Yes. We help device makers design their data infrastructure and check the quality of their sensor data. Larger builds are delivered with specialist partners, and regulatory approval stays with you.

How long does a project take?

From one week for advice to two or three months for a full data foundation. Your proposal gives exact dates.
