Talking Manual

The manual that talks back.

Put a code with what you sell. Your customers scan it once, then ask anything by voice or text, and get answers from your official documents about their exact product. Anything that needs a person comes straight to you, already explained.

How Talking Manual works, in three minutes.

What it is, how customers use it, and real conversations recorded live with a car, a card game, a beach cottage and a home for sale. Nothing on the assistant's side is scripted.

Built for your industry

One assistant, shaped around what you sell.

A new car owner talking to her phone beside her car at the dealership

Car dealerships

Every car you sell gets an assistant that knows it down to the VIN, answers from the manufacturer's manuals, and sends service requests to your team.

For dealerships

A couple at their travel trailer in a pine forest campground, one asking her phone

RV and camper dealers

Every RV gets an assistant that knows its floorplan and systems, from the manufacturer's manuals, and sends service requests to your team.

For RV dealers

A pontoon owner at the helm at a lake dock, asking her phone a question

Boat dealers

Every boat gets an assistant that knows the boat and its engine, from both manufacturers' manuals, checks Coast Guard recalls and sends service requests to your team.

For boat dealers

Friends around a board game, one asking a phone on the table

Board and card games

The rulebook that talks back: it teaches the game step by step, answers rules questions, and settles arguments impartially.

For game publishers

A gym member leaning on a machine, asking her phone a question

Gyms and fitness studios

An AI trainer that knows your gym from one walkthrough video: where everything is, how to use it, and what to do for any muscle group.

For gyms

Guests in a beach cottage living room, one asking his phone a question

Vacation rentals

A house assistant for every property, from one walkthrough video: how everything works, where things are, checkout, and places nearby.

For rental hosts

Buyers at an open house, one asking her phone about the home

Real estate listings

A listing assistant for every home for sale, from the agent's walkthrough: updates, what's included, a tour at any hour, and showing requests straight to the agent.

For listing agents

A new homeowner in her basement mechanical room, asking her phone a question

New-home builders

An assistant for every home you hand over, from your orientation walkthrough, manual and warranty: shut-offs, filters, what's normal, and warranty requests already explained.

For home builders

A homeowner asking his phone about the heat pump on his living-room wall

HVAC and plumbing contractors

A sticker on every furnace, heat pump and water heater you install: homeowners ask the system, and service requests reach you already explained.

For contractors

A homeowner in her garage during a power outage, asking her phone about the home battery on the wall

Solar, battery and generator installers

A sticker on every battery, inverter and generator you install: homeowners ask what stays on in an outage and what an alert means, and service requests reach you already explained.

For installers

A resident in her apartment building's mailroom, asking her phone a question

Apartments and senior living

One code in the lobby: residents ask how things work, where things are and what the rules say, and maintenance requests reach your office already explained.

For communities

A contractor on a rented scissor lift, asking his phone a question

Equipment rental

A decal on every machine in the fleet: renters ask how to inspect and run it, answered from the operator's manual with safety first, and breakdowns reach your branch.

For rental companies

Your industry next? Hot tubs, e-bikes, campgrounds and more: if it comes with a manual, it can talk. Tell us what you sell.

How it works

Set up once. Every customer gets their own assistant.

We load your documents

Manuals, guides, rulebooks, warranty booklets and your own policies. Add or update them any time from your portal.

A code goes with the product

On a sheet in the paperwork, inside the box, or on the rulebook. Customers scan it once and it stays on their home screen.

Customers just ask

By voice or text, any hour. Answers come from your documents. When a person is needed, the request reaches your team with the conversation attached.

This is not customer service

It works where customer service never would.

Nobody calls customer service to be walked through a product's features. Talking Manual is for all the questions that happen every day, long before anything goes wrong.

	Customer service	Talking Manual
When it's used	When something has gone wrong	Every day, from the first use
What people ask	Faults, complaints, billing	"How does this work?", "Show me how", "Is this allowed?"
How it starts	Find the number, wait on hold	Tap an icon, wherever they are, whenever they like
What it knows	Whatever the customer explains	The exact product, its documents and the customer's history
Cost of a routine question	A person's time	A few cents
When a person is needed	Starts from scratch	Arrives already explained
