Portfolio

Ideas we've bottled. For ourselves, and for our clients.

Four products Geekwork built and runs itself, and the platforms we've built for clients. Different markets, the same approach: find the real problem, build the simplest thing that solves it, and keep it running.

Our own products

Built, launched and run by Geekwork.

Running our own products means we know what it takes to sell software, support it and keep customers happy, not just to write it.

Education recruitment

AdPolish

A job advert is a sales page, not a job description.

Visit adpolish.co.uk
  • The problemSchools compete hard for teachers, but adverts are often written in a hurry: no salary, vague benefits, missing safeguarding wording, or phrases that put good candidates off.
  • What it doesPaste in an advert, or a link from TES, Reed or MyNewTerm, and get a score for clarity, compliance and appeal to candidates, with the top changes to make.
  • Who it's forSchools, trusts and the people who write their job adverts.
  • How it's soldFree, with no login.

School policies

PolicyGuardian

The cheapest time to find a gap in a policy is before an inspector does.

  • The problemSchools must keep dozens of statutory policies up to date as guidance changes, such as Keeping Children Safe in Education each September. Checking each one by hand is slow, and gaps often come to light at inspection.
  • What it doesUpload a policy and get a compliance score, the evidence for each requirement, what's missing and what to change. It covers 17 policy types, from safeguarding and SEND to admissions, complaints and online safety.
  • Who it's forHeadteachers, school business managers, trust compliance leads and governors.
  • How it's soldFree, with no login.

CCTV redaction

SureRedact

When CCTV footage is released, one missed face is a data breach. So the redaction is done by trained people, not software.

Visit sureredact.co.uk
  • The problemWhen someone asks for CCTV footage of themselves, everyone else in it has to be hidden before it's released. Doing that properly takes time and skill most schools and landlords don't have.
  • What it doesUpload the footage. Trained UK staff blur or pixelate faces, number plates and other identifying details, and send it back within one working day. Files are encrypted and deleted after delivery.
  • Who it's forSchools and trusts, housing associations, property managers and businesses.
  • How it's soldPriced per minute of footage, with a rush service and a money-back guarantee.

Team morale

OrgBeat

An annual staff survey is a post-mortem. A weekly pulse is a check-up.

Visit orgbeat.co.uk
  • The problemMost organisations find out how staff feel once a year, in a survey, long after anything could be done about it.
  • What it doesA short weekly pulse, plus Hi Fives so colleagues can recognise each other, anonymously if they prefer. Leaders see the average score, participation and recognition over time.
  • Who it's forLeaders of schools, charities and businesses.
  • How it's soldA 30-day free trial, with no card needed.

Client work

From looking after what exists to building what's next.

Both of these long-running relationships started with supporting an existing system.

Hospitality consultancy

A simulation platform built on the consultancy's own method.

  • StartedSupporting the consultancy's existing systems.
  • BuiltA platform where facilitators run commercial decision-making simulations with the consultancy's clients. A working prototype came first, so the client could use the product before committing to the full build.
  • NowThe production platform is in development, alongside maintaining systems that have been running for more than 10 years.

Start with a conversation

Got an idea in the drawer? Let's bottle it.

The first conversation is free and is simply about the idea and whether Geekwork is the right fit. Even if we never work together, you'll have a written summary and a suggested next step the same day.
