Things people are probably wondering.

Good news: Dave doesn't need watering.

Forget about him for three weeks and he'll still be there when you come back, exactly as you left him. Possibly looking slightly bored.

Your worker and everything you've taught it stay saved with your account and subscription. Neglect alone won't kill him.

Absolutely nothing.

Dave doesn't have feelings, so you can't hurt them.

He may, however, correctly conclude that the spreadsheet isn't going particularly well.

No.

Your worker can have a personality, but it doesn't actually have feelings.

Betty won't sulk. Dave won't hold a grudge. George isn't secretly judging you.

Probably one of their better qualities.

No. But we're not going to stop you.

Your worker doesn't need manners to function — although "Dave, sort this bloody mess out please" is perfectly acceptable.

Yes.

Pause them. Delete them. Change their job. Rewrite their rules.

No awkward meeting. No cardboard box. No one stealing your stapler.

No.

He may stop replying because he's paused or you've used up your plan's monthly messages.

But he cannot storm out dramatically because you asked him to redraft the email again.

Only for dramatic effect.

When paused, your robot visually powers down.

The actual software isn't tucked up under a tiny duvet.

Yes.

No judgement. No dressing gown. No "can this wait until morning?"

Subject only to your plan's monthly message allowance — which, for the record, doesn't care what time it is either.

No — because it can't see it.

Your worker has no access to your browser, your files, your email or anything else on your devices.

It only knows what you type into the conversation and what you've put in its training manual.

Absolutely not.

Your worker can't see anything on your computer. It lives on our secure platform, and the only things it knows are the things you've deliberately typed in and taught it.

No keys to any doors — because right now there aren't any doors. If we ever add connections to outside services, you'll switch them on yourself, per worker, and can switch them off again.

We've deliberately made "going rogue" considerably less exciting than the films.

Your worker can only do one thing: talk with you. It can't send anything, buy anything, delete anything or touch any outside account — those abilities simply don't exist.

Worst case, Dave writes a strange sentence. You can also pause him at any time, which is the least dramatic robot uprising imaginable.

No. Not even a little bit. Not even for a new robot hat.

Your worker has no access to your bank, your cards or your accounts. It can draft a purchase order; it cannot place one.

Then it's made a mistake.

AI isn't magic and it isn't infallible — which is why your worker only ever drafts and suggests, and you stay the one who decides what actually gets used.

If it keeps getting something wrong, correct it in its training manual. It takes feedback better than most colleagues.

Yes. That's rather the point.

Tell your worker about its job, your preferences and the way you work — in ordinary sentences, in its training manual.

You can see everything it has been taught and change it whenever you like.

Potentially.

If you repeatedly tell Dave that every email should begin "Alright, sunshine", don't be shocked when Dave starts sounding like you.

You remain the boss. You can also un-teach him just as quickly.

Of course.

Dave doesn't know he's Dave.

Call him Dave. Call her Betty. Call it Susan From Accounts. Call it Supreme Commander of Email.

Your worker won't mind.

Yes. That's part of the fun.

Body, colour, face, headgear, accessories, personality — build a robot that actually feels like yours.

Absolutely.

One worker is helpful. Several workers become your little digital workforce.

How many can be active at once depends on your plan — one on Solo, up to three on Business, up to six on Workforce.

Not yet.

Today each worker works with you, one conversation at a time.

What we won't ever do is unleash six robots into an unsupervised digital committee meeting and hope for the best.

Please do.

No special prompts. No coding. No learning to speak Robot.

Tell your worker what you need in ordinary language — and on supported browsers you can literally speak to it and have replies read aloud.

No.

You probably don't understand exactly how your washing machine works either. You still expect it to wash your pants.

Same principle.

No complicated installation.

Your worker lives securely on our platform. Use the same worker from your phone, computer or tablet — and on supported devices you can add us to your Home Screen so your workers are one tap away.

Same Dave. Different screen.

No.

Dave isn't actually living inside your phone.

Your worker lives securely with your account. Sign in on another device, and there he is — same memory, same rules, same Dave.

Dave works while you're talking to him — he drafts, plans, answers and analyses in the conversation, right in front of you.

He doesn't yet beaver away in the background while you sleep, so there's nothing to leave your phone on for. Everything he's done and been taught is saved the moment it happens.

Yes.

Whether you SHOULD talk to Dave while sitting beside a swimming pool is between you and your life choices.

Not unless you've given them access to your account.

Although if Betty is exceptionally good at organising holidays, expect interest.

That's not the idea.

Give it the repetitive, irritating and time-consuming work — the drafting, the summarising, the "can you just write this up".

You keep the bits requiring your judgement, relationships, expertise and actual humanity.

No.

"Worker" is how we make the product easy to understand.

It's AI software — not a human employee, not conscious, and definitely not entitled to annual leave.

No.

Dave has never experienced a meal deal and intends to keep it that way.

Mostly computing power.

Which is considerably easier to expense than sandwiches.

There's no magic money button here, and we won't pretend otherwise.

A good worker helps you get useful work done faster and more consistently. What that becomes is still down to the business around it.

You can try.

Dave is unlikely to instruct a solicitor.

No.

What you teach your worker is used to run YOUR worker, for your account only. Other customers' workers never see it, and we don't sell your data or share it with advertisers.

Your messages are processed by our AI provider to generate each reply, under terms that don't allow them to be used for training other people's models. The plain-English detail is on our Privacy page.

No.

Every customer's data is isolated by security rules enforced in the database itself, and we test that isolation with automated checks.

Betty from someone else's account has never met your Dave and never will.

You stay in control.

Pause workers, delete them, or cancel your subscription — cancelling pauses your workers but keeps everything you've taught them saved, in case you change your mind.

No guilt trip from Betty.

We've checked the diary.

Nothing booked.
