Our app · built October 1–7, 2026
Helobrand Work
An app for projects and clients, for our companies.
- Problem
- Tasks, client conversations and contacts were scattered across notes, chats and a prototype board. Nowhere could we see who was doing what by when, and who needed a reply.
- Why our own, built with AI
- We compared ready-made tools. None combined tasks, a simple CRM and an AI assistant on the same data. We built our own with AI: the founder described the needs and checked every screen, and AI wrote the code.
- What it does
- A private app on our own account, for computer and phone: tasks, sales for each company separately, contacts, reports and a one-click backup. The AI has its own login, and every change it makes is signed. The app doesn’t read or send email.
- What it gives us
- In one place, we see who is doing what by when and who needs a reply, separately for each of our companies. The AI assistant works on the same data, and we see what it changed.
- What went wrong
- On day seven, the app stopped because we ran out of the free database read limit. We moved to a paid plan, queries are now 10–40 times cheaper, and a test makes sure it doesn’t happen again. Every mistake like this is now a rule in our build procedure.
- Status
- Running since October 7. After a month, we’ll add what it changed, with numbers where we’ve counted them.
