Looking for an AI Agency in Petersfield? What Agencies Do, and What Dean Keating Does Instead

Not an agency

If you typed "AI agency" into a search box, here is the plain position. Dean Keating is an AI automation consultant. He is not an agency, and this page will not pretend otherwise. He also publishes this directory, so the service described here is our own business and you should read the page as an introduction, not a verdict.

What agencies usually sell

An agency typically sells a package: a brief, a project plan, an account contact, a delivery group and a monthly arrangement. That suits a business that has a marketing or operations department and wants a whole programme run for it.

What he does instead

He builds AI agents, installs them in the email, web forms, WhatsApp and diary the business already uses, trains the people there and supports it afterwards. His website calls this installed for you, not handed over. It runs in four steps: a free call, an audit of the work worth automating, the build and install, then training and support. He starts with the single task that would make the most difference.

One imaginary driveway firm

The directory lists 11 driveway and paving firms (10 October 2026), on the driveways and paving page. Picture one of them. Enquiries arrive as a photo of a worn drive and a postcode, usually while the owner is on someone else's site. The reply that goes out first tends to win the survey visit.

The jobs on his website's list that fit are: replying to new enquiries within minutes, answering common questions, sending the quote, chasing the quotes nobody answered, and booking the survey into the diary. Anything that needs the owner's eye goes to the owner with a note of what was asked. This is an illustration, not a description of any firm listed here.

When an agency is the better choice

• You want one outfit to run advertising, a new website, video and AI together.
• You need people working in your premises every week.
• You have several branches or departments and want formal project management.
• You prefer a contract with a company behind it.

Dean Keating does also build websites and do SEO through deankeating.com, but he is one consultant, not a full-service agency.

Questions for any provider

• Will you build it, or recommend it and leave?
• Which of my current tools will it work inside?
• Who do I speak to once it is running?
• What happens to the work if I stop?
• What does the first month actually cover?

Where he is and what it costs

He is based in Horndean, Hampshire, the same county as the town, and sets up remotely. His website says he can visit businesses in Hampshire or nearby in person. There is no published price list: the cost is given after the free call, with no obligation, and you leave with a plan you can use with or without him.
