About HelpFred

We're on a mission to make customer support effortless for every business. No more spending hours writing the same responses over and over.

Our Mission

To give every business owner their time back by creating AI that handles customer support automatically—learning, improving, and responding in your voice, 24/7.

The Problem We're Solving

Every founder and small business owner knows the feeling: you're trying to build your product, grow your business, and serve your customers—but you're stuck answering the same support emails over and over.

Traditional helpdesk software doesn't solve this. It just gives you better ways to organize the manual work. Chatbots are frustrating and require constant management. Hiring support staff is expensive and takes months to train.

We believe there's a better way: AI that actually learns your business and handles responses automatically, getting smarter with every interaction.

The average founder spends 3+ hours daily on support emails
80% of support questions are repetitive
Customers expect responses within 2 hours

What We Believe

These principles guide every decision we make, from product features to company culture.

AI Should Just Work

No complex setups, no training required. Good AI should be invisible and effortless.

Customers Come First

Every feature we build starts with the question: "Does this help our customers succeed?"

Speed Matters

In support, time is everything. We optimize for fast responses and instant value.

Built for Real People

We build for busy founders and small teams, not enterprise IT departments.
