We build it first — you decide after

Your customers already have their phones in their hands. Be on the screen.

Your own app, on their home screen, with one message from you filling a slow night. Send us your website and we'll build it — the real thing, not a mockup — and put it on your phone. If you don't want it, you owe us nothing.

No card. No contract. Three fields and your website address.

The only math that matters

One notification has to beat $49. Here's a Tuesday.

That's the whole decision. Not features, not technology — whether a single message to the people who already like you is worth more than a month of the plan. Swap in your own average ticket and do the sum yourself.

Then remember you can send it again next week, and the week after, at no extra cost.

A quiet Tuesday, 4pm

  • Customers with your app installed400
  • If 3 in 100 act on tonight's notification12 orders
  • At a $40 average ticket$480
  • Cost to send it$0

The same blast to those 400 people by text would be billed to you every single time — and again for every photo and every extra line.

Illustration using round numbers so you can run your own, not a report of anyone's results.

Four things you can do the day you launch

Turn a dead room around

It's 4pm and the book is empty. One message about tonight, and by 6pm people who weren't coming in are coming in.

Stop being forgotten

Most customers don't leave you — they just stop thinking about you. Your icon on their home screen is the reminder they see all day.

Keep the customers you paid for

Your subscribers live in your app, not in a delivery marketplace's list or a texting vendor's account you rent by the month.

Announce anything, instantly

New menu, new stock, catering, live music, closing early for the holiday — decide at noon, tell everyone at 12:01.

Why not just text them

Texting sends you a bill for growing. Your app never will.

"I already text my customers." Then you already know the deal: a charge for every message, another for every photo, carrier registration before you're allowed to send at all, and a bill that climbs the moment your list does. Same phone, same customer, same message — one of them costs you nothing to send.

Cost per message
SMS / text marketing: Billed per text sent, and again for each segment of a long message or photo
Your app from YourAppBiz: Nothing. Sending is included in your monthly plan
Cost as your list grows
SMS / text marketing: Goes up every time you add customers — growth costs you more
Your app from YourAppBiz: Same monthly price whether you reach 50 people or 5,000
Carrier paperwork
SMS / text marketing: A2P 10DLC registration: brand vetting, campaign approval, registration and monthly carrier fees before you can send
Your app from YourAppBiz: None. Push notifications are a browser standard, not a carrier service
Phone number
SMS / text marketing: You need a dedicated number or short code, and it can be filtered or blocked
Your app from YourAppBiz: No number needed. Messages come from your own app
What the customer sees
SMS / text marketing: A number in a thread next to spam and appointment reminders
Your app from YourAppBiz: Your name and your icon on the lock screen

Reach everyone. Pay nothing to send.

Texting charges you per message and now makes you register with the carriers first. Notifications from your own app are unlimited and included — send one tonight, send another Friday, the bill doesn't move.

Your icon, between Instagram and their bank

Your app installs from a QR code or a link and stays on the phone. No app store listing, no review queue, no yearly developer fee, nothing for your customer to search for again.

Keep the ordering you already run

Toast, Square, Clover, ChowNow, Shopify, Booksy — the Order or Book button opens what you use today. Same payouts, same reports, same staff routine. Nothing to switch.

Grow your list without growing your bill

Fifty subscribers or five thousand, the price is the same. You will never be charged more because your marketing worked.

Installs without a sales pitch

Table cards, window stickers and receipt QR codes do the asking, so your staff never has to explain anything. Scan, tap, done.

A real person when you want a change

Hosting, security and updates are ours to worry about. Want a new photo or a new special up front? Email us and it's done.

You don't have to switch a thing

No new hardware. No retraining. No downtime.

Keep your point-of-sale, your online ordering, your booking calendar and your payouts exactly as they are — your app's buttons open the systems you already pay for. The difference is what happens next: their marketing modules charge you more as your list grows. Ours doesn't, ever.
