Strategy, AI, and growth for ambitious businesses.
Tripleseat is the category leader for venue sales — and at $479+/month per location it should be. CortexaOS Venues replaces it with AI lead scoring, AI BEO drafting, and AI smart pricing that Tripleseat does not have, at less than half the cost.
Mindbody charges per location, Wodify charges per coach, ClassPass takes a 25% cut, and your members deal with a clunky 2014-era app. CortexaOS Gym OS replaces all of it — with AI churn prediction, AI form check, and a white-label member portal.
Most POD sellers run Printful, Printify, Etsy, Shopify, and Placeit in five tabs and spend 60+ hours a month on manual sync work. CortexaOS Merch Studio runs all of them — and AI generates the designs.

The businesses winning in 2026 are not the ones with the biggest sales teams. They are the ones with the most automated sales motion — qualifying, demonstrating, and onboarding prospects faster than competitors can schedule a discovery call.
Most AI receptionists answer calls and take messages. Katherine qualifies the prospect, builds their Company Brain from their website, creates their trial account, and texts them their login — before they hang up.
