Your website
What your $99 builds: a site that looks like your business, not a template
The software drafts your site from the facts you type: your name, your hours, what you sell. You edit every word, and you publish it.

From your kind of business, your tone and whether you have photos. Each one comes with a plain sentence on why.

Change the colour, the type, the movement and the spacing. 20 Looks are there if the first three miss.

You edit and publish
Rewrite any section in your own voice. Then put it online at a hosted link, or download it as a ZIP.
A site of up to 5 pages comes with the $99 plan. Finding your plan is free.
Every site on this page is an example: a made-up business drawn by the same software. The words, hours and prices belong to those made-up owners.
Two kinds of AI product
AI on autopilot, or AI that asks first?
The approach matters more than the brand. Here is how the two differ.
| Question | AI on autopilot | Dapols |
|---|---|---|
| Who decides? | AI on autopilotThe AI chooses and acts. You review what already happened. | DapolsYou do. AI drafts, and you approve before anything goes out. |
| Whose money? | AI on autopilotOften a monthly plan paid in credits that covers the AI's work. Polsia, for example, sells monthly task credits. | DapolsYours. You set a tool budget, any amount including nothing, and pay tools directly. |
| When it is wrong? | AI on autopilotIn an autonomous mode the AI acts first, and you review the result afterwards. | DapolsYou see the draft first, and you can change who does any job. |
| What you keep? | AI on autopilotIt depends on the product, so check what you can export before you pay. | DapolsYour plan, notes and documents. Delete them any time. |
Polsia, for example, describes itself as: ““An autonomous AI system that plans, codes, and markets your company 24/7.” Its page title: “AI That Runs Your Company While You Sleep”.” (polsia.com, read Nov 10, 2026).

Published ranges, not quotes. A human consultant still does things software can't, like running workshops inside your team.

Don't see your business?
Answer a few questions about how you work and we match you to the closest plan, then adjust it to your answers. Or ask us to set AI up with you.
Software does the legwork. You make the calls.
Software watches prices, matches your answers to a plan and drafts the changes that fit it to you. Then someone at Dapols checks those drafts, so nothing is added to your plan that a person hasn't read.
- Review
Drafts checked by a person
Your AI consultant's drafts are visible straight away, labelled as drafts, and a person checks them within 24–48 working hours.
- Consultation
3 consultations a month, included with your plan
A consultant at Dapols answers within 24–48 working hours.
- If it isn't right
7-day refund
7-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked.
Money back within the refund window, no questions asked. Nothing renews on its own.
Questions
Questions, answered.
The things people ask before they buy.
Is this a real consultant?
It's software that does a consultant's first job: working out where AI fits your business, which tools to use at your budget and in what order. The numbers come from your answers and live prices, AI writes the words, and a person at Dapols checks those drafts and answers your questions within 24–48 working hours. It never logs into your systems or acts on its own; you approve every step.
What if my business isn't listed?
The questionnaire matches you to the closest plan and tells you when the fit isn't exact. Your opportunity map, roadmap and business case are worked out from your own answers rather than the industry label, so they still fit. The questionnaire is free, so you can see the match before you pay anything.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. Ask within 7 days of paying and we refund the setup, no questions asked.
Does Dapols run my business for me?
No. You run it. Dapols gives you a plan that says who does each job: you, or you with AI. In the second kind, AI does the work using your tools and you approve it. Nothing is sent or changed without your OK.
Which jobs shouldn't I give to AI?
Anything where a wrong answer costs you a customer, money or legal trouble: setting prices, refunds, hiring, tax, legal or medical advice, and replies to upset customers. Every plan lists the jobs to keep human.
Does Dapols take a cut of my revenue?
Dapols takes no share of your sales or ad spend. Some tool links are affiliate links, and we disclose them.
Can ChatGPT or Claude read my plan?
Only if you connect them. With an unlocked plan you can connect your own assistant to read your plan and make safe edits: notes, task ticks and saved drafts. It cannot send, post, publish or spend anything, and you can switch it off any time.
How much does the AI plan cost?
The questionnaire is free and shows which plan we would assign. A one-time payment unlocks your AI consultant: an opportunity map, a 90-day roadmap, a business case, tools at 4 budgets, and an AI website builder for up to 5 pages. A person checks the AI drafts. You keep the plan. Nothing continues, and no card is kept for a later charge. About a month later, we ask whether you want Kept current: a monthly research briefing on customer searches, AI mentions and competitors, plus plan and tool updates. It starts only if you say yes. Stop any time and keep your plan. Current prices are on the pricing page.
Start with the free plan. Decide after.
Seven questions, about two minutes. You see your AI readiness check, your top three opportunities and a starter set of tools before you pay anything.
