Handoff's AI assistant is now available throughout the entire platform, giving you instant help wherever you are in the app. Whether you're managing projects, creating invoices, or working with clients, your AI assistant is just a click away.

Why This Changes Everything

Before, you'd spend hours digging through project lists, jumping between screens, and manually tracking down client information.

Need to find all your kitchen projects from June?

That meant scrolling through hundreds of entries.

Now your AI assistant does the heavy lifting. It can instantly pull data from across your entire business, draft documents on command, and handle tasks that used to eat up your day. Think of it as having a skilled office manager who never sleeps, knows every detail of your business, and can complete tasks faster than you can describe them.

This isn't just a time-saver—it's a game-changer for how you run your business.
