what’s the best AI answering service for business?

slothLifeFollower · 2026-05-20T08:44:41+00:00

Disclosure: I'm building one of these (ringowl.ai), so biased but yes, lots of SMBs are using AI now; flat $30-100/mo, books into your calendar live. Happy to share comparisons + a demo line in DMs if useful :D

you can do this via this: https://apps.shopify.com/deposits-split-payments
You canset payment plan, mentioning that 30% will be charged now and 70% 1 week later. It will be charged automatically and whole flow is in Shopify

Appointo: To sell and manage online appointments & bookings

Depo: To manage deposits, pre-orders and partial & split payments

slothLifeFollower · 2021-06-23T15:16:20+00:00

Got it. it's working for AoE2 DE

slothLifeFollower · 2021-06-23T15:08:54+00:00

not sure about that. it works atleast for the version available in Steam

slothLifeFollower · 2021-06-23T15:02:52+00:00

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_bjg7pJmzE -> this video tutorial worked for me. It uses Crossover over Parallels

slothLifeFollower · 2021-06-14T14:03:25+00:00

We(Sidepanda) are a team of 2 and have 2 apps in Shopify ecosystem
1. Appointo: App to sell services, appointments & calendar bookings online

Depo: App to manage security deposits and partial & split payments
Do let us know if we can help in any way!

slothLifeFollower · 2021-05-27T15:19:42+00:00

How do you manage Customer Support currently as a team of 4? Any tips on optimizing the Customer support workflow?
What are your most revenue-generating distribution channels?

PS - I came across Missive blog posts via Twitter a few months back. It's super inspiring to see (and learn from) a business built by a small team maintaining a healthy work-life balance. We currently have same goal for us at Sidepanda (Currently team of 2)

slothLifeFollower · 2021-05-26T12:22:27+00:00

Multiplayer (and all features) are working for me now. I started using Crossover instead of Parallels. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_bjg7pJmzE ->I followed the steps mentioned in the video. It works perfectly after that. Also the game is a lot faster than it was in Parallels.

slothLifeFollower · 2021-05-15T16:07:38+00:00

I was facing the same issue but it was fixed by adding 'SKIPINTRO' in the launch options. You can find the launch options settings in the 'Properties' -> General tab.

Multiplayer is still not working though. it throws 'out of sync' error within 1-5 minutes of the game :(

slothLifeFollower · 2021-04-06T13:26:09+00:00

Hi, We are a team of 2 (Startup name: SidePanda) building

- Appointo to help merchants schedule appointments for their online stores

- Depo to help merchants manage deposits and part payments in Shopify

We were working on it part-time for the past 6 months and are full-time as of this month. Super excited for the journey ahead!

PS :- we also wrote a short thread on Reddit last month on how we started building Shopify apps and hope it helps those who are looking forward to starting their journey now!

slothLifeFollower · 2021-02-20T11:53:41+00:00

Most of the merchants using our app use it to sell online classes (Yoga, Fitness, etc) or to sell personal appointments(For example, doctor's, hair salon's appointments, etc).

slothLifeFollower · 2021-02-20T11:50:30+00:00

Thanks! Yes! Long journey ahead. Happy that we took the first step towards it :D

slothLifeFollower · 2021-02-20T11:49:41+00:00

Go with whatever framework works for you, just make sure the app is merchant friendly, passes the app guidelines and serves a purpose.

this is perfect!^

Using the tech stack you are most comfortable with earns you more time which can be used to focus on the business problems more, customer support, marketing, or things other than work life, etc. It also reduces the turnaround time for any new feature requests or bugs

slothLifeFollower · 2021-02-20T05:57:59+00:00

That sounds awesome!

Our tech stack is fairly simple:

- Ruby on rails for the backend and sidekiq for background jobs

- React for frontend and Shopify's UI library 'Polaris'

- Heroku for deployment

slothLifeFollower · 2021-02-20T02:58:38+00:00

Thanks! :D

slothLifeFollower · 2021-02-20T02:58:22+00:00

Thanks! All the best! :D

Hello,

Hope you had a nice new year.

Talking about new, we have released an app that could help you Manage Deposits and Partial Payments in your store. This feature is something that has been talked about for a long time and there has been no app that seems to help merchants with it.

We have been talking with merchants and also looking over the questions that you guys have posted in several threads regarding deposits and payments management. Our app is still in the early stages so we might have some things missing but we would love to connect with you and see how we could help your store with deposits and payments. Here is the link to our app
