Business
Owner of two restaurants (Suite 200 Grille and Whiskey & Water)
Task
AI "chief of staff" plus assistants for reservations, outreach, purchasing, bookkeeping, finance, operations and content; answers guest texts, posts Google review replies, turns handwritten inventory sheets into food orders
Result
"We're saving $1,500 a month on bookkeeper costs. It caught up 8 months of books, reconciled them to the penny and found about $28k in errors." "100+ Google review replies posted." "One month of bookkeeping now takes about a fifth of the effort it used to."

  3. wrote three review replies himself so it learned his voice
  4. fixes corrections once and they stick
