The problem it solves

Visitors ask questions on your website at all hours, but you can't be online to answer every one, and scheduling a call afterward adds extra back-and-forth. Missed messages can mean lost business.

Who it fits

Small businesses and service providers who want their website to answer questions and book meetings without staff monitoring it constantly.

How it works

  1. A visitor opens the chat widget on your website and asks a question
  2. AI answers using your business information and keeps the conversation on topic
  3. When someone wants to book a meeting, AI checks your calendar for open times
  4. It collects the visitor's name, email, and preferred time
  5. The meeting is booked on your calendar and confirmed with the visitor
What you get

Visitor questions answered any hour of the day

Visitors get their questions answered any time of day and can book a meeting straight onto your calendar.

What you get

Answered customer questions and a confirmed calendar booking, with no manual scheduling.

What you need

An OpenAI account and a Google Calendar 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.
