Quick answers

Does AI send messages automatically?

No. StaffAble AI is owner-controlled: AI prepares drafts, summaries, and actions, but the owner or team reviews sensitive external messages or commitments before they go live.

What does the build start from?

Setup starts from ₹1,00,000 for Indian businesses and $1,500 globally. Final build plan depends on daily work, integrations, approval and automation rules, and how far the build goes.
