Your desk greets every visitor, asks what they actually want, checks them against criteria only you can see, and files the conversation. You meet the result, not the queue.
01 · The configuration
One sentence of setup, and it is private.
You write the kinds of request you want to receive — a title and one sentence describing what qualifies. That is the entire configuration, and it is never published.

Investment opportunities
“B2B SaaS founders raising Seed–Series A with early commercial traction.”
Partnership opportunities
“Teams whose distribution reaches operations leaders in mid-market retail.”
02 · The interview
It asks what it needs, one question at a time.
A visitor reads your page with no account. To speak they sign in with Google, and your desk starts asking. Before anything reaches you it writes the request back to them to confirm.
I look after Elena’s first conversations. What brings you here?
We’re building a sales platform and I’d like to explore a partnership.
Happy to pass that on if it fits. What stage are you at, and what would you want from Elena?
03 · The brief
What reaches you is already read.
Matched conversations arrive as a brief: who they are, the category and priority your desk assigned, why they reached out, the context that matters, and one recommendation.

Recommendation
Matches the partnership criteria you wrote. Worth your attention.
Written by your front desk from the conversation it had. You are not shown the transcript — the summary is the point.

04 · The decline
Everything else is answered too.
Conversations that do not match are declined politely in your name, with a reason. They land in your spam folder — readable, and recoverable in one press. The person is never told whether you saw it.
Spam · with the reason kept
Bulk outreach
Sent to many people at once, with nothing specific to you.
Off topic
Nothing in it matched a request type you wrote.
No context given
Asked for time without saying what for.
YOUR CONTROLS
You are never locked out of your own door.
Take over
Step in yourself. Your desk stops, and the visitor is told it is you now.
Hand it back
Hand it back and the desk picks it up again. Takeover is a state, not a one-way door.
Move it
Pull anything out of spam in one press, or send something the other way.
Pause the desk
Switch it off whenever you want. Your page says so, and your setup is kept.
What it will not do
It books nothing. Dotstrap holds no calendar and never sees your availability.
It never answers as though it were you. It says whose desk it is.
It puts no email address, phone number or messaging handle on your page. That absence is the product.
The other direction — Intent Match — is how you go looking for people instead of waiting for them.
Take the address. Decide about the desk later.
It is free, it is yours permanently, and it cannot be changed afterwards.
