Client Reviews
From the people we've worked with
The Workflow Automation Advisory was not what I expected — in a good way. I assumed it would be a general presentation with broad recommendations. Instead, the team observed how we actually handle shipment documentation and came back with specific, ranked suggestions. We acted on three of them within two months.

Operations Manager · Logistics, Kwai Chung

We engaged Ferrotype to maintain a customer service chatbot that had been built by a previous vendor. The handover took a few weeks as they worked through the existing documentation, but once they were up to speed the monthly reports gave us visibility we hadn't had before. The chatbot's resolution rate has improved noticeably over six months.

Head of Digital · Financial Services, Central

What I appreciated most was the discovery phase. The Ferrotype team spent two days with us before proposing anything. The system they eventually built processes our inspection images alongside the sensor readings from the production line — something we had tried twice before with other firms without success. It has been running for eight months with minimal issues.

Technical Director · Manufacturing, Tuen Mun
January 2026
We started with the advisory service because the board wanted an independent view before approving a larger AI budget. The report was clear, well-structured, and honest about what automation would and wouldn't help with. It gave us a basis for a much more focused investment conversation than we would have had otherwise.

CFO · Professional Services, Admiralty
February 2026
The team is technically strong and also easy to work with. They communicate in terms that our non-technical directors can follow, which has been valuable in keeping internal buy-in for the project. The chatbot maintenance retainer has been running for four months and we've seen measurable improvement each month.

IT Manager · Retail Group, Causeway Bay
January 2026
We brought Ferrotype in to review our existing AI landscape and identify automation opportunities in our claims handling process. The report identified four areas we hadn't considered — two of which we've now implemented. The written deliverable was thorough enough to share with our compliance team without any additions from our side.

Case Studies
A closer look at three engagements
Case Study 01 · Multi-Modal AI · Manufacturing
Visual and sensor data integration for production line inspection
The Situation
A Tuen Mun manufacturer was conducting visual inspections manually alongside automated sensor monitoring. The two data streams weren't connected, leading to defects that sensors flagged but visual checks missed — and vice versa.
What We Did
We designed and built a multi-modal system that correlates camera imagery from the production line with real-time sensor readings. The system generates alerts when both streams indicate potential issues simultaneously, and logs patterns for review.
Outcomes
Combined defect detection rate improved by 34% over the preceding six-month average. Manual inspection requirements for standard production runs were reduced significantly, freeing team capacity for higher-complexity checks.
Duration: 11 weeks
Case Study 02 · Automation Advisory · Financial Services
Identifying automation priorities across a compliance team's workflow
The Situation
A compliance function in a mid-sized financial services firm was spending substantial staff time on data gathering and report preparation that involved little substantive judgement. Leadership wanted to understand the automation landscape before making any technology commitments.
What We Did
Over two weeks, we interviewed process owners across the compliance team, observed their working methods directly, and mapped the information flows underlying each activity. We produced a written report ranking eight automation candidates by implementation effort and expected time savings.
Outcomes
The client used the report as the basis for a board-level investment proposal. Three of the recommended automations were approved and are now in development — two internally and one with Ferrotype. The report's analysis directly informed the scope and prioritisation of that investment.
Duration: 2.5 weeks
Case Study 03 · Chatbot Maintenance · Retail
Ongoing maintenance for a customer service chatbot across product range expansion
The Situation
A Causeway Bay retailer had deployed a customer service chatbot that had been well-received at launch. As the product range expanded, the chatbot's ability to answer queries accurately deteriorated — customers were receiving outdated responses or being escalated unnecessarily.
What We Did
We began with a structured technical review of the existing chatbot, then established a monthly maintenance cycle: knowledge base updates aligned with product changes, intent model retraining based on conversation log analysis, and monthly performance reporting with improvement recommendations.
Outcomes
Over four months of maintenance, the chatbot's successful resolution rate — queries handled without human escalation — increased from 54% to 71%. Customer escalation volumes to the live support team fell by roughly one-third.
Ongoing retainer: HK$3,400/month
