Any services, side by side.
Each service on this site is one job done for a business by the same software, which this site calls the system: for example, answering text messages sent to your business number, or running your ads. Pick up to three services in the menus below (two on a phone) to see them in columns. Further down, one table lists every service.
Messaging
iMessage line
Customers text your existing business number and get iMessage replies (blue bubbles on iPhones) from an AI assistant that follows the permissions you set.
Ads and leads
Meta ads
What each step of an ad costs and returns — impressions, clicks, leads, booked jobs — and which step the system improves.
Industries
For home services
The phone rings while you are on a roof. The caller gets a text from your number within a minute, and it books the job.

Actions it uses from the Directory
The Directory is a table in which each row is one action the system can run, such as sending an iMessage or creating an ad. The number is how many of those rows the service uses; the tags group them by the kind of work they do.

Questions you answer at setup
Common questions and answers
Can any number be used?
Most numbers on a mobile carrier can. Many hosted VoIP lines and some ported numbers cannot complete Apple's verification. We check on the first call and tell you before you commit. Where it cannot be done, a dedicated line works the same way for everything except the old thread history.
What happens to my phone?
Nothing. Your phone keeps ringing, texting and receiving exactly as before. The registration adds an iMessage identity for the number on hardware we operate; it does not move your number anywhere.
Is this sanctioned by Apple?
iMessage is Apple's product and we use Apple's standard device verification to register the line. Apple can deregister an identity; when that happens we re-verify with you, and the dedicated line is the fallback so your customers are never unanswered. We are not affiliated with Apple.

Do my customers know they are talking to an assistant?
When they ask, yes, and it hands to you the moment it should. Pretending otherwise gets found out on the first visit and costs you the job.
Every service in one table
9 services in 4 groups. Each column is one service and each row asks one thing about it: a tick means yes, a dash means no, and a number is a count. The Compare button at the bottom of a column shows that service in the columns above.
