Business Agent
Every Ownbox ships
with a Business Agent.
ChatGPT just let businesses build a Business Agent that lives inside ChatGPT. Yours should not live in only one app. The Business Agent in your Ownbox answers ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and any AI agent from the documents you approve, on a server you own.
Ownbox's own Business Agent, answering
How much does an Ownbox cost?
Ownbox Core is $799, paid once. It is the complete Ownbox foundation, for up to three people.
What is a Business Agent?
A Business Agent is an AI that answers questions about one business, for that business, from what the business itself says. People and AI apps ask it about services, prices, hours and policies, and it answers from the business's own documents instead of guessing from the open web.
Two homes for your Business Agent
You'll want both. One you own, and a copy where ChatGPT's users are. Google has one too: since January, US retailers can turn on a Business Agent that answers shoppers on Google Search, set up in Merchant Center. Like ChatGPT's, it lives on its maker's servers.
| In ChatGPT | In your Ownbox | |
|---|---|---|
| Who it answers | People inside ChatGPT | ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and any AI agent |
| What it knows | What you type into ChatGPT's Business Hub | The documents you approve in your Shared Company Brain |
| Where it lives | On OpenAI's servers | On a server you own |
| Whose rules it runs by | OpenAI's | Yours |
| Who can use it today | US online and ecommerce businesses | Every Ownbox, any business |
Give ChatGPT a copy. Keep the original.
How it works
- Write what people askEvery Ownbox starts with a Public folder in its Shared Company Brain and an About document already in it. Add your services, prices, policies and the questions your customers ask.
- Approve each documentNothing is served until you say yes. A document that changes waits for your yes again, so no one can slip something into public.
- It answers every AIYour Ownbox serves what you approved the way AI apps read: an index they look for, answers in question-and-answer form, and a read-only connector any AI agent can search. Bing and the other search engines that take IndexNow are told the moment you approve.
And your Business Agent in ChatGPT
ChatGPT's Business Hub lets you claim your business and build its agent there. It is free today, and OpenAI keeps the conversations; the business does not see them.
Fill it from your Shared Company Brain, so the facts ChatGPT gives out are the ones you approved, and your original stays on your Ownbox if the terms ever change.
