Ask it what it doesn't know about you.
The gaps it names are the gaps in your rules. Don't answer with anything about a real client — that's rule one, and it's the reason it's safe to do this at all. Every Monday, one of these →
You built a business around your life. Somewhere along the way it started running you — an agency that charges to change a sentence, a diary you can't fill from your phone, a renewal nobody checked. This puts it back.
Built by a woman who runs her own business, for women who run theirs.
It's Thursday. Two o'clock has cancelled, and the only way to tell anyone is to email the person who built your website and wait.
That's paying for dependence. A little every month — the agency retainer, the booking tool's cut, the insurance that renewed at a price nobody checked — and a lot on the afternoon it actually matters.
The tools that fix it already exist, and most of them cost nothing. The catch is that an AI you haven't told the rules to is a confident stranger, and you were right not to trust it with your clients.
So this does two things. It puts the logins back in your hands. And it teaches you to write the rules — five or six sentences, in your words — before you trust it with anything at all.
Change what the public sees in a minute, by asking. No more emailing and waiting.
What your AI may do, may not do, and must never see. Written by you, about your business.
How to catch it when it's confidently wrong. The habit that outlasts everything else.
Every insurance, registration and subscription, dated — with a nudge a month before that asks: are you overpaying?
Ask it the same question two different ways, ten minutes apart. If the answer changes, it was guessing the first time. You'd run that on a supplier who told you something was "fine". Run it on this.
The first few half-days are free — I'm testing the day, not selling it. Friends of friends pay nothing. Everyone else pays the number on the page, and there isn't another number.

Twenty years running large programmes for big organisations. A full-time job now, in a different world. This is my own — I started it because friends who run good businesses on their own were paying other people to hold the keys.
