- Hi, do you deliver to Austin, and how much is the large plan?
- Yes, we deliver to Austin in 2 to 3 days. The large plan is $89 a month. Want me to book a quick call with our team?
- Yes, tomorrow morning
- Booked for 10:00 tomorrow. Sarah from our team will call you. Lead saved to your CRM.
Example conversation
Sound familiar?
- Customers ask the same questions on WhatsApp, Messenger and email, and someone on your team answers each one by hand.
- Leads arrive at night or on weekends and wait until Monday.
- Data is copied between forms, spreadsheets and your CRM, and mistakes creep in.
- You tried a chatbot builder, but it gives generic answers that do not know your business.

What we build for you
Workflow automation
n8n workflows that connect your forms, inbox, spreadsheets, CRM and calendar: new lead to the right person, follow-up sent, record updated, report delivered.
AI agents for internal work
Agents that draft replies, sort support tickets, summarise calls or prepare proposals for a person to check and send.
Care after launch
Optional monthly support: we watch the logs, fix what breaks when a platform changes, and tune answers from real conversations.

Proof from our own stack
We built it for ourselves first
These are systems our team built and runs every day for our own group of businesses. We do not show client work without written permission.
Case study 1
A unified support inbox with AI replies
For our sister company's learning platform: Facebook comments, Messenger and WhatsApp in one admin inbox, where AI drafts or sends answers and a person takes over when needed.
Case study 2
A WhatsApp team assistant
A self-hosted WhatsApp bridge and agent our own teams use every day to post updates, answer questions and trigger jobs.
Case study 3
An AI proposal pipeline
A voice or text brief goes in; an agent asks follow-up questions and produces a branded English proposal PDF for a person to review.

How a project works
- 1Tell us what you need
Send a short brief through the contact form or by email: what the work is for, what you already have, and when you need it.
- 2Get a fixed quote in US dollars
Within 2 business days we reply with a written quote: scope, deliverables, delivery date, revisions and the total in USD. Nothing is owed until you accept it.
- 3Accept and receive an invoice
PretendMind LLC issues an invoice in USD for the amount in the quote. Jobs under US$500 are paid in full before work starts. Larger projects are paid 50% when you accept the quote and 50% before the final files are delivered.
- 4We make it, you review it
Our production team in Dhaka does the work, with AI tools and a person checking every stage. You review drafts and ask for the revisions the quote includes.
- 5Delivery and handover
You receive the final files or access to what we set up. The intellectual property in the work made for you passes to you once the invoice is paid in full.
Questions
Do we need to pay for software subscriptions?
Sometimes. n8n can be self-hosted at no licence cost or used on n8n Cloud; AI model usage and WhatsApp messages are billed by those providers to your own account. Every quote lists these running costs separately, so there are no surprises.
Who owns the chatbot and workflows?
You do. We build in your accounts, or hand them over to you, and the intellectual property in the work passes to you once the invoice is paid in full.
Will the bot make things up?
We limit it to your own content, test it with real questions before launch, and design a clear handover to a person for anything it should not answer.
Which languages can the bot speak?
English, plus any other language the AI model handles well. We test the languages you need before launch.
Tell us what you need
Send a short brief. Within 2 business days you get a written quote in US dollars, with scope, delivery date and revisions.
