The Problem: Local shops, salons, cafés, fitness studios, and service providers often rely on pen, spreadsheets, or clunky, overpriced tools to manage:
• Staff scheduling
• Supply ordering
• Customer bookings
• Local marketing
• Daily revenue tracking
They don’t have the time or skills for complex software, and most tools are either bloated or too generic.
The Solution: Opsie – a simple, AI-powered mobile-first app that acts as a business operations assistant for local business owners. Key Features:
Smart scheduling (staff, bookings) with conflict alerts
Natural language task management (“Remind me to reorder milk every Tuesday”)
Simple daily dashboards (revenue, bookings, costs)
AI Suggestions: “You’re low on X; reorder now?” or “Traffic is down on Thursdays – run a promo?”
WhatsApp/text integration for customer updates and reminders
Why It Works: Niche-focused: Built only for local businesses, not all SMEs. Mobile-first, no learning curve: Speak to it like a human, not a system. AI adds real value: Pattern recognition, reminders, local trend tips.
