Platform guide

Bussco Strategic Workspace

Understand your business. Remember your decisions. Build on what you learn.

Disconnected documents lose the why. Generic AI starts over. Bussco connects the context, reasoning and work that move your business forward, with you in control.

No account needed for the demo. Real strategic tools require active access.

Business owners reviewing plans together

From context to action

A connected system, not a collection of prompts.

Business Brain

Stop explaining the same business twice.

Keep business context, customers, offers, positioning and brand voice together. See where information came from, bring your existing work and explicitly accept what belongs in your shared knowledge.

Connected strategy tools

Each step starts from the last, not from zero.

Bussco's proprietary tools connect ideal customer profiles, Buyer Intelligence, personas, offers, positioning and campaign strategy. Review prior work, explore alternatives and choose what to carry forward.

Monday Briefing & ALEX

Know which questions deserve your attention.

Review open questions, company updates, evidence gaps and recent decisions. Save an answer, assign a question or request help thinking it through. ALEX synthesizes context; you decide what to do.

Campaigns & Lyra

Keep execution connected to its strategy.

Develop campaign plans and text content with Lyra, organize buyer journey stages and next steps, and record performance observations. Results become evidence to revisit assumptions, not automatic changes to strategy.

Evidence, decisions & saved work

Remember the reasoning, not just the result.

Link evidence to what it supports or challenges. Record decisions and dependencies, edit results while preserving originals and attribution, and reuse the active version in your next step.

Teamwork & human support

The right people, with the right authority.

Invite your team with defined roles, assign actions and designate deliverable approvers. Request a Bussco Strategist for recurring support, or work with Bussco on a separately scoped consulting engagement.

Your first steps

Start small. Keep the thread.

  1. 01

    Explore without committing

    Try the free public demo with your business details. Accept an example suggestion, answer a sample briefing question and draft a campaign next step. Everything stays in your browser.

  2. 02

    Create your account, then activate access

    Account creation is free. The Owner subscribes on the Access page or redeems a promo code issued by Bussco. There is no automatic free trial or free first tool run.

  3. 03

    Build context at your pace

    Answer guided setup questions, bring existing knowledge and connect a saved Business Checkup. A skippable click-through tour introduces the Workspace, and you can replay it from your account.

  4. 04

    Review, decide, execute, learn

    Choose a question or tool, review its proposals and explicitly accept what you want to use. Build campaigns from that strategy and bring results back as evidence. Your next decision starts with what you learned.

Before you begin

Your questions, answered.

Ask the Bussco team→
Is there a free trial?

No automatic trial is included. Creating an account, the public demo and the Business Checkup are free. Strategic tools require a paid subscription or a valid Bussco-issued promo code. Research access is limited and invitation-based, not an ongoing free plan.

What can I actually do in the demo?

Enter business details, explore four areas, accept an illustrative positioning suggestion, save a sample briefing answer and draft a campaign next step. These are illustrative examples, not live AI analysis or actual sales data. Drafts stay in this browser; only your business name can prefill setup. Demo outputs do not transfer into your account.

What does the subscription include?

The full Core Strategic Workspace is $249.99/month or $2,499.99/year upfront, including one Owner seat and every feature described here. Additional Strategic/Admin seats are $49.99/month, Contributors $19.99/month and Viewers/Approvers are free within a business with active access. There are no artificially restricted Starter or Pro tiers.

Is this another AI chat tool?

Bussco connects business context, strategic work, evidence and decisions. AI helps propose and synthesize; people accept, edit or reject. Proposals do not become accepted business knowledge automatically, and original work and reasoning remain traceable.

Do I need to start from scratch?

No. Add existing customers, offers and positioning, review saved work before generating new options and confirm the fields you want from a saved Checkup. Setup is progressive; you do not need to complete everything before taking a useful first step.

Does it publish campaigns or connect my CRM automatically?

The current Workspace supports planning, text content and manually recorded evidence and performance observations. Automatic external publishing, live CRM ingestion and image/video generation or editing are not included in the current subscription.

Is a consultant included?

No. The Workspace is the system you use yourself. Add a Bussco Strategist is optional, with scope and pricing agreed after a consultant reviews your request. Strategy Intensive, Bussco Build and Strategic Advisory are distinct consulting engagements.

Who can see and change my business information?

Businesses are isolated and access follows defined roles. Your invited team sees permitted information; authorized Bussco staff may access it for support or assigned consulting work. Viewers cannot freely edit or run tools. Deliverable sign-off requires specific designation, except for Owners and Strategic/Admins with broader authority.

What happens if I cancel or change my subscription?

Only the Owner manages billing. Cancel from the billing portal and tool access remains until the paid period ends. Plan and paid-seat changes apply immediately with proration. Seats cannot be reduced below current team commitments. Business deletion is blocked while subscribed.

How does the Founding Research Cohort work?

Selected businesses receive defined research access through Bussco, with an onboarding interview, two or three feedback sessions and a final interview. Approved participants who continue can receive $199/month or $1,999 for their first annual term, limited to the first 12 paid months. Standard pricing applies afterward. Applying does not grant access automatically.

Make the next decision with context

Try the experience. Then make it yours.

Account creation is free. The full Workspace is $249.99/month or $2,499.99/year. No automatic free period; Bussco-issued promo codes provide limited access when offered.
