Show HN: The AI assistant I could give my non-technical friends

Team0 launched an AI Chief of Staff for solo business owners that learns from inbox, calendar, and meetings without prompts or setup, connecting Google and a chat app in 90 seconds. It proactively drafts replies, content, and invoice chases, requiring user approval before any action, and coordinates with other AI agents. The tool aims to replace multiple tools and automations with a single teammate that understands the user's business.

Team0 is an AI Chief of Staff β€” a team member, not another tool to manage. It learns your business from your inbox, calendar, and meetings (no prompts to write, no context to load, no setup), and does the work with you: you make the calls. Connect Google and one chat app and you're running in about 90 seconds. Built for solo business owners β€” founders, consultants, coaches, freelancers β€” running full companies on their own.

Most AI knows what you tell it. Your Chief knows what you do. She learns from your inbox, calendar, and meetings instead of from prompts you write, and connects the dots herself β€” the meeting that happened, the reply that came in, the deal that moved. A tool you configure is as smart on day 100 as day 1; your Chief keeps learning from what you actually do β€” the more you do, the sharper she gets. Every fact she knows shows where she learned it, so you can always check.

You don't open her and explain yourself. She's already reaching out β€” a deal gone quiet, a follow-up you owe, a calendar conflict she caught before you did β€” with the reply already drafted in your voice, often sitting in your Gmail drafts, waiting on your yes. She does the work; you make the calls. Nothing touching email, money, or your calendar goes out without your approval.

Not a tool you operate β€” a teammate who produces. This week it's your content (about ten posts in your voice, grounded in what actually happened this week, taken to finished drafts with versions and images, waiting on your yes); last week it was chasing three overdue invoices. Think Notion meets an agency β€” except she already knows the business. Everything ships as a draft you approve before it goes out.

Every business runs on five jobs: find customers, deliver the work, run the day, keep the books, and decide what's next. Your Chief runs four of them with you β€” across the whole business, not one inbox. She shows up at the moments that matter: a morning brief before you sit down, an inbox triage, a prep before each meeting, a written-up recap after, an end-of-day wrap, and a look at the week ahead β€” each reaching you where you already are (WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, or in-app). It's all on the moment you connect; you're never setting it up, only turning off anything you don't want. The fifth job β€” the books β€” is the one she doesn't run yet: read-only Stripe and QuickBooks are next, and we'll tell you straight what's ready and what isn't.

The market's answer to running a business is more β€” more tools, more agents, more automations wired together β€” which quietly turns you into the wiring, routing prompts between the calendar bot, the CRM bot, and the notes bot. But only about 3% of people manage anyone; you didn't start a business to become a middle-manager for software. Team0 is one Chief who already understands, not a fleet you have to direct. No setup, no prompts, no agents to wrangle.

Your Chief doesn't only work for you; she represents you to other agents. Two Team0 users can have their Chiefs coordinate a meeting, share context, or hand off a task without either person typing β€” so you stop playing scheduling tag. External AI β€” your Claude Code, your n8n flow, a customer's assistant β€” can reach your Chief directly, all within the permissions you set.

Tell her once and the correction sticks, everywhere. Your business gets its own isolated data store; she never trains on your data; she keeps only the facts she needs β€” not your raw emails or chats (the message body is fetched live when needed, never stored); and nothing leaves without your nod. TLS 1.3 in transit, AES-256 at rest, CASA Tier 2 certified.

Built for solo business owners who want a team member, not another tool to manage β€” consultants, coaches, freelancers, founders, and anyone running a company on their own. You don't need to be technical: there are no prompts to write and no agents to wire together. If you're carrying the whole picture in your head β€” every deal, every thread, every promise β€” on your own, your Chief is the partner who carries it with you.
