Handling one GDPR data request manually costs a business somewhere between £1,000 and £3,000 in staff time. Industry estimates, not mine, and the low end is generous.
Someone has to find the person across every system, verify their identity, pull the data into an audit-ready export, and do it all inside the one-month legal window. That cost grows with every signup.
So I build engines that run the whole flow. Request comes in, identity gets verified, data gets assembled from every source, the export comes out audit-ready, and the statutory clock is tracked automatically so nothing slips.
Compute cost per request: about £5. Compliance that scales with your signups instead of your headcount.
How's your business handling data requests right now, manually or automated?
