The problem it solves

Onboarding a new consulting client means building a checklist, assigning tasks to the right consultant, and sending a welcome email, all of which eats into time you'd rather spend on billable work.

Who it fits

Consulting firms that want to standardize and speed up client onboarding.

How it works

  1. Triggers when a new client is added
  2. AI generates an onboarding checklist based on the project type
  3. Routes tasks to the right consultant
  4. Logs the client's information in Google Sheets
  5. Notifies the team in Slack and emails the client a welcome message
What you get

Onboarding checklists ready the moment clients sign

New client signups automatically generate an onboarding checklist, alert your team, and send a welcome email, so every client starts the same way.

What you get

A logged client record, an assigned task list, a Slack alert to the team, and a welcome email to the client.

What you need

A Google Sheets account, an OpenAI API key, a Slack workspace, and an email 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.
