The tool is another resource that can help business owners in their planning and management, no matter where they are in their journey — whether they are just starting out, sustaining growth, or planning to expand. Users can ask questions tailored to their needs, receiving tailored advice on topics such as digitizing their business, accessing grant resources, or improving financial literacy to enhance credit.

An additional element has been provided for influencers and content creators involved in brand partnerships. They can access relevant insights to better understand their value and negotiate fair compensation in their partnership agreements.

The tool offers resources and insights tailored to a variety of business categories, including content creation, plumbing, childcare, property management, event planning, food truck operations, pet care, wholesaling and others.

It supports small business owners through four key stages of their journey: ideating, starting, sustaining and growing.

People starting small businesses may have a hard time navigating the excess of data and be overwhelmed with resources. Where should they start? Who should they trust?

We saw this need and leaned into our strong history of support for the small business community. Through our work over the past several months, we believe the tool could help them survive and thrive in today’s digital economy.

While AI cannot replace human mentors, it serves as an exceptional catalyst for efficiency.

The tool features a web-based conversational chatbot interface designed to guide small business owners seamlessly through the process. By asking intuitive, prompted questions, the chatbot helps users navigate directly to the specific information they need.
