Bring your menu, your price list, your PDF

Attach a file and the builder reads it — spreadsheets, PDFs, photos of a printed menu. It also asks when you're actually open, and books against those hours instead of hours it made up.

The fastest way to describe a business is usually to hand over something you already have. A menu, a price list, a service sheet, a photo of the board on the wall. Until this week, attaching one of those on the dashboard quietly did nothing — the file never reached the build, and you got a site written from the sentence you typed instead.

Attachments are read now

  • Any file you attach is read: spreadsheets, plain text, PDFs, and images — including a photo of a printed menu, which is transcribed rather than just pinned to the page.
  • The contents reach the build in full. The old hand-off would have kept roughly the first third of a menu and dropped the rest.
  • Already have a site? The prompt box on your dashboard used to discard what you typed the moment you hit send. It now carries your message — and your files — straight into the editor chat as the first thing it works on.

Booking hours you actually gave us

The intake conversation now asks when you're open, works out your timezone from your city and a sensible appointment length from your trade, and writes those hours onto your booking page.

Two things follow from that:

  • Your booking page offers real times. A page with no hours set showed no availability on any date, forever — that can't happen now, because every build writes a schedule.
  • We refuse to invent hours. One barbershop's site confidently advertised "Tue–Sun, 10am–8pm" for a shop that was never asked. Hours that were never given are now rejected before they can reach your site.

The builder talks as it thinks

Replies in the builder chat stream in as they're written instead of appearing all at once after a pause, so you can read along and interrupt as soon as something's off.
