The problem it solves

Onboarding a new client usually means the same repetitive setup every time: creating a folder, building a task list, setting up a communication channel, and sending a welcome email. Doing this by hand for every client is slow and details get missed when your team is busy. Clients notice when onboarding feels disorganized.

Who it fits

An agency or service business that onboards new clients regularly and wants a consistent, fast setup.

How it works

  1. A client submits your onboarding form with their details and proposal
  2. Key details are pulled from the proposal document
  3. A client folder is created and the proposal is saved to it
  4. AI breaks the proposal into onboarding tasks and adds them to your project tool
  5. A dedicated team channel is created and a welcome email is sent to the client
What you get

Onboarding steps that are already queued up

Your new clients get folders, tasks, a team channel, and a welcome email set up the moment they sign.

What you get

A fully set up client workspace with tasks, files, a team channel, and a welcome email already sent.

What you need

Accounts for Google Drive, Slack, Gmail, GoHighLevel, and an OpenAI API key.

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.
