The problem it solves

Backups only matter if someone remembers to actually run them, and hand-checking every backup for success is easy to skip when you're busy. Without confirmation, you don't find out a backup failed until you desperately need one.

Who it fits

Small business owners and solo developers who need hands-off, verified backups.

How it works

  1. On a schedule or trigger, the system packages your database or file backup
  2. It uploads the backup file to your Box storage folder
  3. It confirms the upload succeeded
  4. You get an email through Mailgun confirming the backup is complete
What you get

Files and databases safely recoverable anytime

You get scheduled backups of your files or databases uploaded automatically to Box, with an email confirming every backup succeeded.

What you get

A backup file stored in Box, plus an email confirmation of the result.

What you need

A Box account and a Mailgun account with a verified domain.

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.
