01The problem it removes
Recurring questions arrive across the week and answers vary with workload, channel, and who is available. A poorly grounded chatbot adds another source of inconsistency instead of removing one.
Built for · A business with real enquiry volume — retail, services, F&B, clinics — where most questions are answerable from known facts but some genuinely need a human.
02What it needs from you
- Your real product, pricing, policy, and availability facts
- Escalation rules: what it must never answer alone
- Approved tone and examples from your business
03What you get
- Consistent first-line answers from approved business information
- Clean handovers with full context when a human is needed
- A log of every conversation and a digest of what people ask

04How it works
01 Ground
The assistant is loaded with your verified facts — not scraped guesses — and told exactly where its authority ends.
02 Answer
It handles questions supported by the approved source set and hands over when it cannot verify an answer.
03 Escalate
Complaints, medical/legal questions, and anything outside its facts go to a human with the conversation attached.
04 Learn
Unanswerable questions become a weekly list — often revealing missing pages, unclear pricing, or a new demand signal.
05Autonomy & approvals
The approved scope records this boundary. Every launch begins with review or approval; any action that later runs unattended is enabled only after you approve that specific lane.
May act without approval after rollout
- Answering from verified business facts
- Collecting enquiry details before handover
- Producing conversation logs and question digests
Always needs your approval
- Any answer involving refunds, complaints, or exceptions
- Committing to delivery dates or custom pricing
- Anything touching health, legal, or financial advice
06Data & privacy commitments
- Conversations may contain personal data — retention and deletion rules must be explicit.
- The business controls the fact base; the assistant must not improvise facts.
- Escalation thresholds are explicit settings with named owners and review dates.
