Questions owners ask
Yes. You connect it once and the team works inside it as you. Every send is logged, and you can disconnect in one tap.
You read it before the customer does. Every send has an undo window, and the team learns from your edits.
Any time. Pause one teammate or the whole office from your phone, or cancel from the billing page.
No. Setup is five questions about your business, about three minutes, on your phone. There is nothing to build, no prompts to write and no workflow editor.
Something that reached a customer or changed a record. Reading, drafting and asking you are free. The office shows the count.
At checkout, for your first month. Tell us within 14 days and we refund it in full. Cancel any time from the billing page.
The lights are on.
