AI Assistant for Freelancers
Bill more hours. Carly handles the unbillable ones.
Nearly half of freelancers lose 6+ hours a week to non-billable admin. Carly is an AI assistant that books your calls without a booking link, drafts client email and follow-ups, researches prospects before meetings, and runs the repeat workflows that eat your day.

The busywork freelancers know too well
Scheduling makes you look like a one-person shop
Sending a booking link tells clients it is just you. Carly coordinates meetings over email, text, or WhatsApp like a real assistant, proposing times across your calendars so you come across as a polished operation.
The same onboarding and follow-up emails, over and over
Every new client means the same intro note, the same reminders, the same check-in. Carly drafts and sends those emails and runs the repeat sequences in plain English so you stop retyping them.
Admin time is time you cannot bill
Inbox triage, prospect research, and chasing replies come straight out of billable hours. Carly manages your inbox, briefs you before client and pitch calls, and follows up automatically so you get that time back.

A freelance designer lands a new prospect and wants to book a call and be prepped
Carly, set up a 45-min intro call with a new lead from NovaCo this week, and tell me what I need to know going in.
I emailed the NovaCo contact three slots this week and will send the invite once they pick one. Before the call I will send you a short brief on NovaCo, what they do, and anything relevant from your earlier email thread, plus a reminder with 30 minutes to prep beforehand.

Does Carly work with my tools?

See what people say
"Before Carly, I relied on a Calendly link, but the whole process felt impersonal and not very professional. Carly changed that by handling all the back-and-forth, so I'm no longer stuck in endless email threads trying to line up schedules.
Now Carly reaches out to candidates, shares my real-time availability, lets them pick a slot, then sends a Zoom link and drops it straight into my calendar. She sends reminders to both of us before each call, which has significantly reduced no-shows and last-minute confusion.
On top of scheduling, Carly acts like a full executive assistant, sending me my schedule the night before so I can prepare for each call. It reminds me of the old x.ai assistant, but Carly is noticeably smarter, faster, and better suited to my healthcare recruitment business."
