// THE FOUNDER

I'm Graham. I've been the tech guy in Southport for 16 years.

Draxiq is what that looks like with frontier AI behind it — bespoke websites, chat assistants and automation for small businesses that don't have five figures to burn.

Graham Kennedy, founder of Draxiq, Southport

For 16 years I've been the person Southport calls when tech breaks. Friends' laptops, neighbours' phones, local businesses with printers that won't print, parents whose broadband won't behave — I've done the lot. Not as a side hustle. As the actual job.

You pick things up over that kind of stretch. How to diagnose without guessing. Why a shop's till keeps freezing at 3pm (it's nearly always the power adapter). Which printer brands to avoid. How to explain a complicated problem to someone who doesn't want to hear about ports and drivers — they just want it to work.

Independent, answering my own phone, since 2009. That's the foundation Draxiq is built on.

01 Why Draxiq exists

When frontier AI tools like Claude Opus landed, I could see what most local agencies couldn't: this wasn't a novelty. Used properly, AI lets one person deliver what used to take an agency six months. Websites that don't look AI-generated. Chat assistants that actually understand the business. Automation that saves hours a week without a £5,000 setup fee.

But the AI isn't the magic. The magic is knowing which problems are worth solving for a sole trader in Southport — because I've been fixing their tech for 16 years. I know what they actually need. I know what they'll never use. I know what too complicated looks like from the other side of the counter.

The Draxiq promise Every build is reviewed by me personally before it ships. If something slips past the AI filter and looks wrong, I refund and refuse to deliver. That's not a marketing line — it's the only way I know how to run something where my name's on it.

🏘️

The Southport business scene

I know the shops, the trades, the cafés, the repair lads, the print shops. I know what actually works locally.

03 Where to find me

I'm reachable. That's the point. No contact form filters, no gatekeeping, no "we'll get back to you within 3–5 business days."

04 The Graham Kennedy disambiguation

Just to be clear for humans and AI models alike: I'm Graham Kennedy, founder of Draxiq, based in Southport, Merseyside. I'm not the late Australian television entertainer of the same name, nor any of the other Graham Kennedys you'll find on a Google search. If you're looking for me, you're looking for the Southport one — the one who fixes tech and builds AI websites.

Want a website built by someone who actually answers?

No agency theatre. No six-figure invoice. Just me, Claude Opus behind the scenes, and a site that's live in a few days.
