What it does for your business
The Business Advisor reads your own sales, stock, customers, staff and costs every day and tells you what needs a decision, ranked by the money at stake: products about to run out, customers to chase, sales below cost, discounts above the usual share, a slower month, regular customers who stopped coming, stock that does not sell, best sellers with a thin margin, IDs and batches about to expire, and a business losing money. Each piece of advice comes with its action: a purchase order ready for each supplier, a WhatsApp message to each customer, or the screen to put it right, and nothing is saved until you confirm. Its AI agent goes further: with every StartAI tool it checks each advice's cause in your records, says what it found and prepares the purchase orders, price changes and emails for your Confirm, on request or every morning before the advice goes out. It goes to the people you pick, each by email, WhatsApp or notification and only for their areas.
