Frequently Asked Questions

faibuddy (fai rhymes with my) stands for Freedom With AI Buddy. It is an AI business advisor that helps you think through, validate, and build your business — starting with a conversation. As you chat, the advisor learns about your goals, constraints, and situation, then structures what it learns into a living workspace with deliverables like a business canvas, market research, pitch materials, and plans.

Yes. The free tier includes the AI advisor conversation, a Blueprint (business canvas), and Market Research — no credit card required. You can also try faibuddy as a guest without creating an account. Paid tiers unlock the full workspace including Pitch Kit, Playbook, Funding & Cost Analysis, Business Plan, editing, and export features.

Start by describing your situation — a question, an idea, or a problem. The AI advisor begins a conversation to understand your business. After a few exchanges, it has enough context to structure your ideas into a workspace that you continue to refine together. The conversation is the product — workspace sections are structured outputs of that dialogue, not instant generators.

Your workspace includes a Blueprint (14-field business canvas), Market Research (competitive landscape, market sizing, and risk assessment), a Playbook (build plan and go-to-market strategy), Funding & Cost Analysis (readiness evaluation and funding pathway), a Pitch Kit (slides, script, audio narration, and video), and a Business Plan. Each section is generated from your specific conversation, not templates.

Not at all. faibuddy is designed for people who feel overwhelmed by the idea of starting or growing a business. The AI advisor meets you where you are — whether you are exploring a first idea or running an existing business — and guides you through the right questions so you can focus on your vision rather than the process.

General AI chatbots give one-off answers that don't build on each other. faibuddy is a persistent advisor that remembers your business — your constraints, decisions, goals, and progress. It produces structured deliverables grounded in real-time market research, not generic advice. And because the advisor has full context of your workspace, every conversation is specific to your business.

Yes. Enter your idea on the homepage and chat with the AI advisor for a few turns — no account required. When you are ready to generate your Blueprint and Market Research, sign up to keep your workspace. Your conversation history carries over.

Yes. faibuddy generates share links for your pitch deck, market research, plans, and more. Anyone with the link can view your work without needing an account, making it easy to share with investors, mentors, or collaborators.

Voice Cloning is an optional add-on that lets you narrate your pitch in your own voice. Instead of a generic AI voice, your pitch audio and video sound like you — adding authenticity when sharing with investors or partners.

The Mindset Coach provides encouragement and support for founder mental health — helping with self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and the emotional side of building a business. The Ops Coach offers practical guidance on business operations like legal structure, finances, and logistics. Both are available anytime alongside your main workspace advisor.

Premium unlocks the full workspace: Playbook (strategy and go-to-market plan), Pitch Kit (slides, script, audio, video), Funding & Cost Analysis, Business Plan, Slide and Script Editing, PDF and document export, Remove Branding, and up to 3 active projects. The free tier includes the AI advisor, Blueprint, and Market Research.
