Most Businesses Lose Leads at Night — So I Built This

A developer built AICS, an AI-powered customer support and lead capture system that works 24/7. The system uses Node.js, Express, Google Gemini API, RAG, and Qdrant vector database to answer visitor questions instantly, capture leads, and qualify prospects. The developer is seeking early users and feedback.

Most businesses don’t lose customers because their product is bad.

They lose customers because nobody is there to respond when buyers are ready to take action.

Think about it.

A potential customer visits your website at 11 PM.

They have a question before buying.

There is no support available.

No instant answer.

So they leave.

And most businesses never even realize that revenue just disappeared.

That’s the problem I wanted to solve.

So I built AICS — an AI-powered customer support and lead capture system that works 24/7.

• Answers visitor questions instantly

• Captures leads automatically

• Qualifies prospects based on conversation

• Trained on your website, FAQs, and documents

• Works as a fully embeddable chat widget

Speed = trust.

If you respond instantly, users trust you more.

If users trust you, they convert faster.

AICS makes sure no visitor is left unanswered — even when you are sleeping.

• Node.js + Express

• Google Gemini API

• RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)

• Vector database (Qdrant)

• Modular SaaS architecture

It’s about understanding real business pain:

I’m currently improving AICS and looking for early users and feedback.
