Setup guide

From sign-up to your first sale

13 steps in four stages, about 80 minutes of work in all, most of it checking your price list. The same steps appear in your portal and tick themselves off as you finish each one.

Before you start. You need your price list (any format), your WhatsApp Business number and access to your domain's DNS settings for email. Nothing is sent to buyers until you approve it: for the first 14 days the assistant drafts and you send.

1Set up the business

Confirm your email address

About 1 minIn the portal: Business profile

Invoices, security notices and handover alerts go to the owner. We confirm the address before anything is sent to it.

Instruction 1 of 3

Add your address and opening hours

About 3 minIn the portal: Business profile

The assistant answers "where are you" and "are you open on Sunday" from these two fields, and nothing else. If they are empty it says it will check with you.

Check your catalogue and prices

About 20 minIn the portal: Catalogue

Every price in a quote comes from this list. The assistant never makes a price up, so the list has to be right before buyers see it.

CatalogueSample

Nasi Lemak Buffet, Deluxe per pax
Delivery, East zone

40 pax Standard with delivery, before GST:

Quotes record the version they used.

Sample catalogue prices are examples. Publish only when they are yours.

Instruction 1 of 4

Record allergens for every dish

About 15 minIn the portal: CatalogueFood and catering only

Buyers ask about nuts, gluten and halal. The assistant answers only from what you record; an item with no record is shown as "not recorded" and the question comes to you.

CatalogueSample
Nasi Lemak BuffetNot recorded

Got nuts or not? My son is allergic.

Published: the menu page and every quote show the allergens of the whole order.

Set your calendar and capacity

About 5 minIn the portal: Autopilot

For the first 14 days you approve every reply. That record shows which kinds of message the assistant gets right, so you can let it answer those alone.

Instruction 1 of 3

When the trial ends. With a card and your business details on file, your plan starts and the first invoice is charged. Without them the assistant keeps working for 7 days, then pauses: drafts are kept for staff to approve, nothing is sent on its own, and nothing is deleted.
