Your business profile is the source of truth the AI uses for every reply, voice call, and form auto-response. The more accurate and detailed it is, the better the AI sounds. Most of these are set during onboarding; this is where you edit them later.

Identity

Settings → Business → Identity:
  • Business name — appears in customer-facing messages, emails, voice greetings ({{business_name}})
  • Business type — drives some default templates and AI tone calibration; pick the closest match
  • Description — a few sentences for the AI’s general background (“we’re a residential plumbing company in Ottawa, focused on…”). Helps with off-script questions.
  • Website URL — used to scan for FAQs during onboarding; useful as a contextual link

Services

Settings → Business → Services: A list of what you do. Each service has:
  • Name — “Drain cleaning”, “Kitchen remodel”
  • Duration — typical appointment length in minutes
  • Description — what’s included, materials, etc.
  • Price (optional) — typical or starting price; helps the AI quote ballpark figures when asked
The AI references this list when asked “what services do you offer?” or “how long does a [service] take?” or “how much for [service]?”

Hours

Settings → Business → Hours: Per-day open/close times, with the ability to mark a day closed. Defaults to Monday–Friday 9am–5pm. The AI gives accurate “we’re open until 6pm” or “we’re closed today” responses based on this. For 24/7 emergency operators, mark every day open with 00:00 – 23:59. The AI will say “we’re available 24/7” appropriately.

Time zone

Important — the AI uses your time zone to calculate “today / tomorrow / this Friday” correctly. Set it on Settings → Business → Time zone. If your team works across time zones (rare for service businesses, common for VAs), the AI uses the org-level time zone consistently. Per-user time zones aren’t currently supported.

Service area

Settings → Business → Service area is a free-text field. Examples:
  • “Ottawa, Kanata, Barrhaven, Nepean, Gloucester”
  • “Boston metro plus 15 miles”
  • “Toronto + GTA, no further than Hamilton”
The AI uses this when asked “do you cover [town]?” — answers based on the description (with a knowledge-base entry for finer detail).

Excluded jobs

Settings → Business → Excluded jobs — what you DON’T take. Free-text:
  • “No commercial work”
  • “Minimum job $300”
  • “No homes built before 1960”
  • “No new construction; existing homes only”
The AI uses this to politely decline jobs upfront so customers’ time isn’t wasted.

AI tone

Settings → Business → AI tone sets the personality of every AI message:
  • Friendly — warm, casual, uses contractions
  • Professional — polished, business-y, full sentences
  • Casual — very informal, even slangy
  • Custom — write your own brief description (“like a knowledgeable older mechanic — direct, no-nonsense, occasionally dryly funny”)
Most service businesses pick Friendly. Match what your existing in-person interactions feel like.

Default appointment duration

For when the AI books an appointment without service-specific data, it uses this default. 30, 60, 90 minutes typically. Set it to whatever a “typical” first-visit-or-quote takes for your business.

Special instructions

Settings → Business → Special instructions is a catch-all free-text field for anything the AI should know that doesn’t fit elsewhere. Examples:
  • “Always recommend the customer take a photo of the issue and text it”
  • “Do NOT discuss pricing for commercial jobs — direct them to call Mike directly”
  • “If a caller mentions ‘emergency’, escalate immediately and offer to call them back within 30 min”
Treat this like a “system prompt extension.” Keep it short — under 500 words is ideal.

Save

Changes save when you click Save at the bottom of the page. The AI uses the new profile on the next inbound message / call.
