#Business outcome

You can resolve common adoption questions quickly and get back to work.

#How to do it

1

How long does setup take?

A focused first week gets you live: security and team first, then tools, then AI, then your operating rhythm.
2

Do we have to use AI?

No. AI is optional and only available for some departments. Where it exists, it drafts and recommends — people always approve.
3

Which departments have AI?

Sales, SEO (Beta), Support, Operations, and CEO. Finance and HR have no AI agent (HR's is Coming Soon).
4

Does a won deal create a project automatically?

No. Winning a deal notifies Operations and activates the client; creating the project is a separate, deliberate step.
5

Can we manage a blog in the CMS?

Not yet — the CMS manages configured sections and media; blog and navigation are Coming Soon.
6

Will emails just work?

Only after you configure an email provider (Resend). The default sends nothing, and the SMTP option is a stub in this build.
7

How do we keep AI safe?

Keep human approval on, review AI output before it ships, and use the publish-live gate for anything going public.
