Small business owners waste significant time repetitively answering the same customer questions (e.g., hours, pricing, scheduling) via manual messaging.

Existing solutions like generic FAQ pages are static and require customers to self-serve, but owners still get asked repeatedly in chat/phone, and no lightweight AI tool is tailored for small business owner workflows without complex setup.
