Workflow

Screens

Use a central feed to show incoming messages with intent tags, a visual calendar for slot selection, and a review panel with draft text and approval buttons.

03Market gap
Alternatives buyers use today
Staff use email clients and spreadsheets for scheduling. This differs by centralising intake, automating drafts, and enforcing a human review step
Where this wins
The value comes from the curated knowledge base and the specific workflow integration, which becomes more accurate and useful as more conversations are processed
04Why now
Customer Support teams are adopting AI for exactly this kind of repeatable work, and the cost of language and vision models has dropped far enough that a narrow, reviewed workflow pays back quickly. The buyer already feels the problem: administrative staff spend hours on repetitive inquiries and miss urgent tour requests due to heavy workloads
