Build an assistant that answers for you.

Brief it with what you know. It handles the questions you would otherwise answer yourself, and comes to you when it should not guess.

Alice's Tech Help

Dad said:My phone says it is connected but nothing will load.

Alice's tech help

Alice's tech help said:Hit airplane mode on, wait a second, then back off again. If that does not fix it, unplug the router (the white box by the front door) for a few seconds then give it a minute.

What Dad sees

How it works

You stay in the loop

Your assistants handle what you have told them to handle, and bring you the rest.

  1. You brief it

    Tell it what it needs to know: the devices, the details, the way you would say it.

  2. It answers

    The people you share it with get help straight away, in your words, without waiting for you.

  3. It comes to you

    When a question is beyond its brief, it asks you rather than guessing. You reply in the same thread.

  4. It gets sharper

    Fold your answer back into the brief and the next person gets it straight away. You answer a question once.

In your hands

You decide what it knows and where it stops

Write its brief in plain language, the details it should have, the tone it should use, and the questions it should never attempt on its own. Anything amiss? Explain what needs to change and the next conversation reflects it.

Setting up the brief

Deputise

Deputise said:What should it know about your dad's setup?
Bob said:He is on an iPhone 13 and the router is the black BT one by the front door.
Deputise said:Anything it should never answer on its own?
Bob said:If he asks about anything to do with the hearing aids app, do not answer. Send it to me.
What you write

You're the fallback

It comes to you instead of guessing

When a question falls outside what you gave it, the assistant hands over rather than inventing an answer. You are notified, you see the whole conversation, and you reply in the same thread.

Escalated to Charlie

Dad

Dad said:I still cannot get online after trying those steps.
Charlie said:No problems Dad! I'm going to be passing at 3pm, so I'll stop in and we can sort it.
What Charlie sees

Who are you building for?

I'm building an assistant for…

“Dad, ask my assistant first”

It knows his phone, his router, and where the spare remote lives. He gets an answer at 9pm without ringing you, and when it can’t help, it asks you, not him.

Build this one

Free to start, and free for the people you help

Building your first assistant costs nothing, and the people you share it with never pay. Plans start when you need more assistants or more capacity.
