We plan your conversation flows, integrations and the scope of your business solution.

3

Our team builds your assistant around the agreed business requirements.

4

We launch it

We test the conversation experience with you, refine it and prepare it for launch.

5

We support it

We agree the ongoing support your business needs to keep the assistant helpful and effective.

For everyday use

  1. Open GoodUs

    Use the official GoodUs link to open the chat in your existing WhatsApp account, then say hi.

  2. Agree & set up

    Read the terms and privacy notice, agree to continue, then follow the prompts for your name, daily goal and diet preference.

  3. Start your free trial

    GoodUs confirms your 7-day trial is active after setup. No payment details are needed for the trial.

  4. Choose a paid plan

    Type /plan when you are ready. Choose R29 per month or R290 per year and follow the Paystack payment link sent in the chat.
