The problem it solves

Remembering everyone's birthday and taking time to write a thoughtful message is easy to forget when you are busy running the business. A generic or missed birthday can feel impersonal to someone on your team.

Who it fits

Small business owners and HR teams who want to recognize employee birthdays without the manual effort.

How it works

  1. On a set schedule, the system checks a spreadsheet of employee names, roles, and birthdays
  2. It looks for anyone whose birthday is coming up
  3. AI writes a warm, personalized greeting for that person
  4. The message is sent to a private Telegram chat
What you get

Employees who feel remembered on their birthday

You get a warm, personal birthday message sent to each employee automatically, right when their day comes around.

What you get

A personalized birthday greeting delivered automatically.

What you need

A Google Sheets account, a Telegram bot, and an OpenAI account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
