THE PROBLEM

The operational bottleneck.

A new client signs a contract or books a first visit. Then comes the manual chore: creating folders in Google Drive, setting up their card in your CRM, sending the welcome email, and chasing them for onboarding information. It's hours of admin per client.

WHAT CHANGES

Material change in your daily operation.

TECHNICAL NOTES & FAQ

Questions about client onboarding & portals.

Implementation details, operational constraints, and practical questions.

Can we customize the onboarding flow per client type?+

Yes. The system reads the contract or intake questionnaire and triggers different folders, checklists, and welcome emails based on what they bought.

Is this secure for sensitive client information?+

Absolutely. We build inside your existing secure cloud storage (like Google Drive or OneDrive) and use encrypted connections. We do not store your client's files.

How does it handle client communication?+

It drafts welcome messages, links to portals, and reminders in your brand and voice, sending them via email or SMS as appropriate.
