GLOSSARY

The words, used precisely.

Eight terms this product means something specific by — the same words it uses on screen.

Front desk

The AI that answers on your public page. Its job is not to answer questions — it is to decide who reaches you.

Not a chatbot, not an assistant, not an agent.

The front desk

Brief

What an owner reads instead of a message: who they are, a category, a priority, why they reached out, the context and one recommendation. Not the transcript.

Not a summary, not a notification, not a lead.

How it works

Request

One person asking to reach another, and the unit the whole product counts. It becomes an ordinary conversation the moment the owner reacts.

Not a message, not a DM, not a ping.

Allowance

How many new people you can start a request with in a rolling 24 hours. It counts people, never messages.

Not credits, not tokens, not usage.

The two limits

Request type

One line of your private configuration: a title, and a sentence describing what qualifies. Never published.

Not a rule, not a keyword, not a filter you can see.

The configuration

Intent

One private sentence about what you are looking for right now. Nobody ever sees it — a match sees a face, a name, a public role and a percentage.

Not your interests, which are public and static. A different field entirely.

Intent Match

Complementarity

What Intent Match actually scores: not how similar two sentences are, but how well what one person needs fits what another offers.

Similarity is not compatibility.

How the matching works

Threshold

The line between what is public and what is private, with the desk standing in the doorway. It is also the mark: half a solid stroke, half seven dots.

Take the address. Decide about the desk later.

It is free, it is yours permanently, and it cannot be changed afterwards.
