Real estate agencies
Agencies live on listings, fast replies and follow-up. Most lose leads because nobody answers in the evening or follows up after a first visit.
Accounting firms
Accountants have many clients, recurring deadlines and the same questions every month. Their time is best spent on advice, not chasing documents.
Training centres
Training centres need course content, learner follow-up and enrolments. AI speeds up content creation and helps keep learners engaged.
