AI office · one-owner businesses

The work that eats your week, handled.

Dayvu puts AI employees to work in one-owner businesses, set up around what you already do by hand: paperwork typed in, sheets rebuilt, the chasing done.

Nothing goes out under your name until you have read it. Your rules decide what it drafts alone and what waits for you. It runs on a server we rent and run for you on the installed card, or on our own servers on the hosted card — never inside somebody else's platform, so no vendor's change of terms can switch your office off. 78% of small business owners say they do not trust AI with basic tasks without close oversight (Bluevine, April 2026).

Free trial · start it yourself

Start the trial yourself, right now.

Your business name and your email, and the sign-in link lands in your inbox. It works your own paperwork for fourteen days: no setup fee, no monthly, no card, and nobody calls you first.

What you get

A portal of your own, opened by a link.

It starts in two fields and the link arrives in seconds. Then you watch it work on your phone: the thread, the invoice list and the documents.

What it costs

Nothing for the fourteen days.

No card, no setup fee, no monthly, and nothing charged either way. Stop before the fourteen days are up.

What it is not

The trial runs on our servers, not in your office.

It is not an installed office, and not either card below. The clock starts the first time you sign in, not when you ask.

Starting the trial means you have read the trial sheet.

or email us about your business:

TWO FIELDS · THE LINK ARRIVES IN YOUR INBOX · THE CLOCK STARTS AT YOUR FIRST SIGN-IN

Pricing

Priced per business, not per seat.

Five seats are included in that number: you, your office manager, your bookkeeper, your partner. The vendors on our comparison page charge per user; ours does not move with your headcount.

The owner adds those seats from the Team tab in the portal — no email to us and no per-seat invoice; the founding login cannot be removed, and anything past five goes through support.

The office, hosted
One business on our own servers, anywhere in the United States, in your portal: start with a blank profile and build your own office.

Ten hours of admin a week is about $1,220 a month at the Twin Cities average for a bookkeeping clerk ($28.24 an hour, Minnesota OES, Seven County Mpls-St Paul, first quarter 2026). The installed office is $599 a month. Give back six of those ten hours and it has paid for itself.

What it plugs into

The apps your office already runs on.

Over 1,000 apps are reachable through the connection layer behind your office. The ones a job needs are picked on the call.

Why this exists

The part of the job that eats your week isn't the part you're paid for.

We build for the owner with a small crew, too small for an office manager. The admin lands on the person quoting jobs and serving customers, and the follow-ups go late.

Dayvu clears it: we learn your business, then run the office around the jobs you hand over.

Where most owners start

One job, running on its own. Delivery invoices read into your cost sheet weekly, with a line on what moved in price. Or every open quote, chased until it books or says no. Then hand over the next.

Documents

Paperwork gets typed in by hand.

Invoices, receipts, delivery notes, order forms, scans, handwritten lists: clean rows in your existing sheet, totals checked, odd items flagged.

Spreadsheets

The same workbook gets rebuilt every month.

Cost sheets, job logs, rosters, stock counts: kept current on a schedule, with formulas and charts.

Watching

You find out about a problem after it has cost you.

Prices, stock, competitors, tenders, leads, reviews, published hours: checked on your schedule, and you hear when something changes.

Data pulls

Your numbers live in four different places.

Numbers from your POS, supplier portal, spreadsheet or inbox, using exports your systems already produce, in one monthly shape.

Reports

The monthly pack, built before you need it.

The monthly pack: what came in, what it cost, what changed, as a PDF, sheet or short email on the same day each month.

Reading

Long documents, made short.

Contracts, specifications, policies, supplier terms, recordings: short answers, with dates and obligations pulled out.

How it works
From intake to running
  1. You describe the work

    One call, in plain words. What you do by hand, where the numbers live, which systems you log into, what a good result looks like, what we must not touch. This is the only part that needs your time.

  2. You get the plan in writing

    Inside 48 hours: the jobs, connections, rules, escalations and install date. You approve the plan before anything is installed.

  3. We build it and test it

    The agent is configured around your jobs and connected to your systems. Rules and escalations are written down, then each job is corrected before live work.

  4. The install, then it settles

    Over a call and a screenshare, $599 once, and we walk you through it. Hosted instead, there is no setup fee: you start blank on our servers and build it yourself in the portal. The first job runs on your paperwork, and the restart test proves it returns by itself.

  5. Every month after

    Once a month we read how it performed, take your feedback and improve the jobs and rules.

Your portal

Every job, every file and every invoice, on the screen in your hand.

The office comes with a portal: one page in the browser you already use. It holds the invoices the office raises, the bills that arrive by email, the thread with your agent and every file it produced. On your phone and the office computer.

The portal's Today tab: what needs the owner's attention, the day's counts, the documents in the workspace and the day's activity.
The Today tab, with example work in it.
The portal's Invoices tab: four invoices the office raised, showing draft, awaiting payment, overdue and paid, above three bills filed from email.
The Invoices tab in the portal, with example invoices in it.
A quick look at the portal in motion. The workspace shown is an example; we never publish a customer's portal.
Open the live demo

A real portal workspace with example work in it. There is nothing to type and nothing to install: it is a demonstration rather than a customer's workspace.

Getting in

A link in your email and you're in.

A link sent to your own address: no password to invent or forget. Changed phones? Ask for another.

Asking

Ask it something at 3am from the truck.

The thread is where the work happens: ask what it did with last week's delivery notes, or hold the quote follow-ups until Friday. It answers from your own register.

The invoices

One place for every invoice.

What you billed and what came in, in one list. Ask in the thread and the invoice is raised here, numbered and dated, with what is still owed in front of you. A payment is recorded against it, with the receipt attached.

The bills

Bills file themselves as they arrive.

A bill that arrives by email is read and filed into the same list, checked every ten minutes: vendor, number, amount, due date, with the document attached to the row.

The files

Everything it built is in one list.

The sheets, the reports and the documents it read sit beside the thread, not in an inbox. Send in a photographed receipt or a handwritten list and the office takes it.

Your call

Anything outside the rules stops and asks.

When a step needs your say-so, a card appears in the thread with one button per answer. Every decision is recorded.

The portal comes with the office. There from the first week, covered by the monthly.

Questions

The ones everybody asks.

What is the free portal trial, and what does it include?

The trial is a portal tenant on our servers. Enter two fields and the sign-in link arrives in seconds, and it works the paperwork you send in, free for fourteen days. The fourteen days start the first time you sign in, with no card and no setup fee. It is not an installed office, and what you buy afterwards is one of the two cards above.

What is the live demo?

It opens a real portal workspace with example work in it. No email needed, nothing to install: it is a demonstration, not a customer's portal.

Do I have to hand my whole business over to an AI?

No. The agent takes repeat work inside rules you set. Everything outside those rules comes to you, and nothing goes to a customer without your say-so.

What can it actually take over?

The six jobs above, all of them running today. Where you already run a booking system, POS or CRM, we look at what it hands over (an export, a login, a report) and connect it. It is an operator for one job, not a chatbot.

Do I need to know anything about computers?

No. You describe the work in plain words and we do the configuring. What you touch is one web page and your own email, and if you can order something online you have everything this asks.

How is this different from the AI assistant I already pay for?

A chat window answers when you ask and forgets you when you close it. This runs on a schedule whether or not you asked, inside your own files, sheets and logins rather than in a text box. It keeps a written record of how your business runs.

What happens when it gets something wrong?

Anything outside its rules comes to you rather than being guessed at, and every correction goes back into the rules. Nothing goes out under your name until you have read it. Where the office itself is at fault, we fix our part and tell you in writing what happened and what we changed. The credit and any direct-cost cap sit in the client agreement you sign before the first payment.

What actually gets installed, and does it work on my phone?

Two things, and you only touch one. The office itself runs on a server we rent and run for you. What you use is the portal, a web page rather than an app, opening in the browser on your phone or the office computer. You sign in with a link emailed to your address, no password.

Why do I pay monthly if the office runs on a server you rent for me?

The monthly pays for the thinking it does, the rules that decide what waits for you, the support, plus the updates and the maintenance you never touch. If you stop, the office stops, and we hand you the register and everything it produced.

Who can switch it off?

You can, and it is one email. The service stops at the end of the month you are in, with no minimum term and nothing to sit out, and we hand over the register and everything the office produced. We can end it if the fee goes unpaid for two months, and the office stops thinking at that point; your files and your register still come back to you. Nobody else can, because there is no third party in the middle: the office runs on a server we rent and run for you on the installed card, or on our own servers on the hosted card, and it is not a tenant inside somebody else's product.

What if I want to stop?

You cancel and it stops at the end of the month. No minimum term, no notice period, nothing to sit out. The setup is charged once, up front, on the installed card, and the hosted card has no setup fee at all. Everything the office produced was already yours.

Is my business data safe?

Your documents, your customers' details and your numbers stay yours, and are never sold. On the installed plan they sit on a server we rent and run for you; on the hosted plan, on our own servers. Both are backed up daily and reachable only by the two of us. What a job has to read goes to the model provider to be worked on. That is how any AI assistant works, and the sheet you sign at setup says exactly what leaves. Anything you have given us is deleted on request. Your portal is served over HTTPS and carries no ad scripts and no tracking pixels. The detail, including where your files sit, is on the trust and data page.

What happens when a platform we use changes its mind?

It changes our settings, not your office. Model work goes out through our own gateway, which points a job at whichever model provider we choose, so if one changes its terms, its price or its mind, we point the work at another one and the office keeps running. The office is not a tenant inside anybody's product, so there is no vendor above us who can retire it the way a vendor retires a feature. When we change our own terms, you get at least 30 days' written notice and you may cancel before the change takes effect.
