Our read on the gapOpinion

Almost none of this job is AI — it is knowing one business's phone, inbox and booking tool better than the owner does.

The connectors, the phone service and the booking tool belong to other companies; what gets bought is the wiring between them and someone answering when it breaks. That is why the monthly is not decoration — a deprecated connector or a booking tool swapped without warning turns a working automation into a silent one, and the maintenance is the part that has to be priced in from the start.
