It arrives
Customer email enters one monitored stream. Text, web chat, voicemail transcripts, and contact forms are planned as additional doors.
FrontDesk · Essential Plus and above
FrontDesk reads everything that comes into your monitored customer email, handles what it can today, and makes sure nothing that needs you gets lost.
FrontDesk is not a chatbot bolted to a website. It is not an autoresponder. It removes the volume around your judgment so the decisions that matter have room.
The pile costs twice
Every message the owner reads and sorts at night costs time. The customer question, vendor bill, or complaint that sits unanswered can cost money and trust. FrontDesk watches the same pile for both problems.
How FrontDesk works
Customer email enters one monitored stream. Text, web chat, voicemail transcripts, and contact forms are planned as additional doors.
Each message is classified and summarized: customer question, booking request, vendor invoice, receipt, complaint, or something that needs review.
Attachments can be captured and filed today. Draft replies, confirmed-answer workflows, and booking guidance are rolling out to pilot clients as enabled.
Complaints, anger, disputes, legal or medical language, injury, press, and anything uncertain are flagged for a human—not guessed at.
Your brief shows what arrived, what was handled, what is waiting on you, and what is due.
Every step is written down, timestamped, and reviewable. You can always ask what happened, when, and on whose approval.
Available today
FrontDesk is available beginning with Essential Plus. Each client workflow is connected, tested, permissioned, and monitored before it is activated.
Customer email entering a monitored address becomes a tracked item.
Long or messy messages are turned into a clear category and plain-language summary.
Invoices, receipts, and packing lists can be pulled from email and filed to secure client storage.
Sensitive or uncertain messages are flagged before any response is considered.
You can see the full context and exact action waiting for your decision.
Actions are written down with what happened, when, and under whose approval.
Where a reply workflow is enabled, messages use the client’s own address—not a vendor identity.
A summary arrives with what came in, what was handled, what is waiting, and what is due.
Never handled quietly
Complaints. Anger. Refunds and money disputes. Legal or medical language. Injury. Press. Anything naming an attorney. Anything the system cannot confidently place.
These are flagged for a human before a reply is written. Restraint is part of the product.
You stay in control
Outbound replies wait for you unless you sign a written policy for specific question types. You can change or cancel that policy.
Answering workflows in development are being built around facts a human has confirmed. If the answer is not known, the system does not invent one.
There is no payment rail. A bill can be captured, filed, and placed on a list. A person decides whether it gets paid.
Actions stay reviewable. Tax, legal, accounting, and investment advice remains with your qualified advisors.
Front desk meets back office
FrontDesk also catches the administrative work that arrives by email. Vendor bills and receipts can be filed today. Bill-field extraction, due-date tracking, and payables reminders are in active development. The Owner's Brief brings this work together with the rest of the operation.

Available to pilot clients as each workflow is enabled.
Client-facing customer texting is not available today and requires separate carrier registration.
Planned as additional doors into the same managed process.
Straight answers
Not unless you sign a written policy allowing a specific list of question types. Until then, every reply waits for you. You can change or revoke that policy.
It does not guess. Answering workflows being developed use only facts you have confirmed. If the fact is not known, a person is asked to follow up.
It is routed to a human before any reply is written. Complaints, refunds, disputes, legal or medical language, injury, and press are never handled quietly.
No. AI does not move money. FrontDesk can capture and file a bill. Extraction, due-date tracking, and reminders are in active development, but payment stays with a person.
No. FrontDesk is the managed system behind incoming work. A website chat door is on the roadmap; monitored email is available today.
There is a screen when you want it, but the daily brief is designed to come to you so you do not have to remember to look.
