Can Nara replace hiring an administrative assistant?
Nara can take over part of the job: the repeated work on a computer. That includes moving information between email, spreadsheets, and accounting software, preparing documents, and drafting follow ups that you approve.
Nara does not answer phones, greet clients, or make judgment calls for you. If most of the role is people facing, hire a person. If most of it is repeated computer work, try Nara first.
How does Nara compare with a virtual assistant service?
| Virtual assistant service | Nara | |
|---|---|---|
| Access to your accounts | You share access with someone outside your company | Nara works on your own computer, with the access you already have |
| Training | You explain each task | Nara learns from how you already do it |
| What goes out | Depends on the person and your instructions | Every send waits for your approval |
| When it works | During the hours you agree | While your computer is on |
| Phone calls and judgment | Yes | No |
Which tasks still need a person?
- Phone calls, meetings, and in person work
- Client relationships
- Decisions that need judgment, and exceptions to the usual process
Nara is built to take the repeated computer steps around this work, so your people have more time for it.
How much supervision does Nara need?
You approve each email, post, invitation, or share before it goes out. Every task keeps its history, so you can check what Nara did. You can stop any task, and when Nara cannot finish one, it hands it back to you.
What if we cannot afford another hire?
Start with the repeated work that takes the most time each week. One person installs Nara on a Mac or Windows computer, with no consultants and no IT project. Pricing depends on the size of your team, and we share it on the demo call.
