💡 Startup Idea: An AI Assistant That Tells You What to Do Next


Let’s be honest — running a business means juggling a million things at once. You’ve got leads in your CRM, emails piling up, orders coming in, customers sending feedback... and it’s easy to miss what really matters.

What if you had an AI assistant that could look at all that data and just tell you what to do next?

Not another dashboard.

Not another report.

Just clear, helpful suggestions based on your business activity.


🤖 Here’s the Idea

Build an AI-powered business assistant that connects to tools like:

  • Your CRM (e.g., GoHighLevel, HubSpot)
  • Email
  • Google Analytics
  • Support chats or helpdesk
  • Social media mentions

And gives you real-time suggestions like:

“Hey, 6 leads haven’t replied in 3 days. Want to send a follow-up?”

“Sales dipped 12% this week — maybe run a quick offer?”

“Customers keep mentioning ‘slow delivery.’ Might be time to review your shipping setup.”

Simple, helpful, and practical.


📈 Why This Could Work Right Now

Three reasons:

  • AI is everywhere — but most tools still require you to ask the right questions.
  • Business owners are overwhelmed — they don’t need more data, they need direction.
  • People want proactive tools — not reactive ones.

This idea combines all three.


🛠 What You Could Build First

  • You don’t need to create a full platform right away. An MVP could be:
  • A chat interface (like a simple inbox or dashboard)
  • One or two CRM integrations

Pre-built prompts like “What changed this week?” or “What should I do today?”

The AI could scan the data and reply like a helpful teammate, not just a bot.


💵 How Would It Make Money?

A few ideas:

  • Monthly subscription (based on team size or features)
  • Freemium model — basic insights free, premium for smart suggestions + integrations
  • Agency white-label — let marketing agencies offer it to their clients

👀 Who It’s For

  • Solo founders
  • Small business owners
  • Marketing and sales teams
  • Freelancers and VAs

Anyone who checks their CRM and still says, “What should I work on today?”


💬 Final Thoughts

I love this idea because it’s not just another AI tool — it’s a decision partner. And honestly, every small business could use one.

If someone builds this — or wants to collaborate on it — I’d love to hear about it. Tools like this can really change how people work.
