Taprave Ltd, the two-year-old marketing-technology company that blends creative talent with AI automation, has cleared 200 paying customers and is aiming for 500 by the first quarter of 2026.
Chief executive Emmanuel Olorunshola says the milestone proves there is “huge hunger among small firms for an affordable middle ground between do-it-yourself and agency retainers.”

“Great ideas shouldn’t be gated by budget or geography,” Olorunshola says. “Taprave turns Fortune-500 optimisation into something any bakery or law practice can afford.”
How the £99 Model Works
Taprave’s platform uses GPT-class language models to draft headlines and captions, while an in-house workflow engine schedules posts, launches email drips, and alerts human strategists whenever performance dips below preset benchmarks—bottling big-agency firepower for the price of a utility bill.
Three Price Points, Fixed Deliverables
| Plan | Monthly Fee | Core Inclusions |
| Starter | £99 | Named strategist • 12 bespoke social posts • Quarterly SEO audit • Pay-as-you-go PPC setup |
| Boost | £199 | Everything in Starter plus A/B-tested creatives • Funnel analytics • Fortnightly performance calls |
| Growth | £299 | All Boost features plus review-management dashboard • Unlimited campaign tweaks • Priority support |
All tiers feed data into an in-house dashboard, giving owners a single window on spend and results across social, search, and email.
Results to Date
- 27% median lift in organic reach within 60 days of onboarding
- 4.9 / 5 average rating from 183 verified Trustpilot reviewers
Private clinic Chemistlive reports a 41% rise in repeat-prescription orders after four months on Taprave.
“The dashboard finally shows me exactly where our marketing spend goes—and it’s paying off,” says founder Mo.
A Crowded, Restless Market
The UK hosts 5.6 million small businesses spending about £4.3 billion on marketing each year (Federation of Small Businesses). Fixed-fee models are catching on as owners face higher borrowing costs and uneven demand.
“A tiered, all-in price removes the variables that usually scare micro-firms away from agency services,” notes Dr Sara McGee, marketing-automation lecturer at the University of Salford.
Community Dividend
Taprave diverts 10% of revenue into free digital-skills bootcamps for immigrant-led ventures in Greater Manchester and funds weekly computer-literacy classes for older residents in local libraries.
