What AI does in your business

Three jobs your AI handles — so you don’t have to.

Markets you — on autopilot

Marlaio researches your business overnight and drafts next week’s posts, ads and emails before you log in — in your own local voice. You wake up to a queue ready to review. Nothing publishes until you tap approve.

Answers your customers

An AI assistant replies to your website enquiries, messages and calls around the clock — answering the common questions, capturing leads, and taking online bookings. Stop losing customers to voicemail and slow replies.

Runs smoother

Marlaio takes the repetitive admin off your plate — scheduling, follow-ups, reminders and simple reports — so you spend less time on busywork and more on the work that pays. You stay in control.

How it works

Set up in minutes. Working by tonight.

From your camera roll to a post that sells.

Case study · a local riding school

From a contact form to live online bookings — in days.

A local riding school had a website with just a contact form. We set up online booking for private lessons — customers pick a time and pay up front, into the business’s own account — plus an AI assistant answering enquiries around the clock, and a private owner dashboard to view bookings and open or close lesson times. Embedded into their existing site. Live in days, not months.

The fine print that writes itself out

One careless ad claim can cost more than a year of marketing.

“Only 3 left!” when there aren’t. “Best in town” with nothing to back it. Under advertising and consumer-protection law, claims like these are the advertiser’s problem — yours. Marlaio checks every draft against these rules before you ever see it, refuses to write unbacked scarcity or invented numbers, and keeps an audit log of every check. Generic AI tools will happily write you a fine. Marlaio won’t.

Always shipping · Always listening

Marlaio works for you today. And keeps getting sharper.

Marlaio is a working AI platform for business — drafting your marketing, answering your customers, taking bookings, refusing risky claims, learning your brand voice. We keep sharpening it: better compliance, deeper voice inference, more channels, smarter automation. The improvements that actually land come from real customer voices, not our hunches. If you’ve got an idea, a wish, or a complaint — we want to hear it. It shapes what we ship next.

Typical response within 48h, Mon–Fri NZST. AI triages; the founder reads and signs every reply.
