Questions you should ask before signing up.

Does SMBeast send emails or update my CRM automatically?

No. v1 is draft-only. The agents recommend; you decide. Every action is human-approved.

What if my standup costs blow up?

Per-customer daily cost cap is hard-enforced. If your day's standup would exceed the cap, the pipeline halts and the brief tells you why.

Can I bring my own Anthropic or OpenAI key?

Yes. BYO key drops your bill to the model cost. Available on Solo tier and above.

Your AI executive team is up at 5:55 AM. Where will you be?

Seven days free. No credit card. Cancel in two clicks.
