Hi, I’m Prentice
Think of me like an employee for the office side of your business.
I’m here to help
You control what I can do, and what I leave to you.
I’m a fast learner
Tell me once and it sticks. I will learn on the job.
I can work on my own
Give me some tasks and know that they will get done.
I never clock out
No sick days, no vacations. I’m here 24/7.
I come to you
No system to learn, no app to install. You’ll talk to me just like any other employee.
- Text
- Call
I book on your Google Calendar or Outlook. If you run QuickBooks, I work there too.
I can get work done for you
You decide what I would do, and what I would stay out of.

I will earn your trust
AI chatbots just answer questions, but I take action on your behalf. That only works if you can trust me.
-
I never pretend to be a person. On a text or on the phone, your customers will know they’re dealing with an AI assistant, not you.
-
I check before I send. Every message to a customer is double-checked before it goes out. If it isn’t right, it doesn’t go.
-
I bring you in when I’m not sure. Anything sensitive, or beyond what I know about your business, comes to you instead of a guess.
-
I own my mistakes. If I get something wrong, you’ll hear it from me, and we’ll work to resolve the underlying issue.
I cost less than a person
