An AI executive assistant for small teams, before you hire one
If you are a founder or ops lead about to post a job for an executive assistant or operations coordinator, it is worth checking first how much of that job is routine. Teddo is an AI assistant that lives in your Slack and handles much of the routine part: calendar, inbox drafts, follow-ups, documents and the weekly numbers.
Free for your first 25 requests. No card needed.
The part of the EA job it takes on
Calendar
“Find an hour with the three investors next week, avoiding my Thursday offsite, and send invites.” Teddo checks calendars, proposes times, books, moves and cancels meetings. It works in your own Google Calendar.
Inbox and follow-ups
“Draft replies to the four supplier emails from this morning.” “Chase everyone who has not confirmed for Friday.” Teddo drafts in your Gmail, in your tone, and shows you each draft in Slack. It asks before emailing anyone outside your company.
Documents
Board updates, job posts, policies, meeting briefs. First drafts in Google Docs, based on what your team has already written and discussed with Teddo.
Numbers
The Monday numbers from Stripe, HubSpot, Google Analytics or your database, posted in a channel with a sheet behind it. See the weekly report guide.
Memory
“What did we agree with the landlord about the deposit?” Teddo remembers customers, suppliers, decisions and promises made in conversations with it, and it is shared across the team.
The part it does not
Be clear about the limits before you decide:
- No phone calls or voice. It works in text, in Slack.
- Nothing physical: no errands, no office management, no greeting visitors.
- No judgement calls about people. It can draft the hard email; you decide whether to send it.
- Google Workspace and Slack only. No Outlook or Microsoft Teams.
- It acts when someone asks. It does not go through your inbox on its own and decide what to do.
If most of the role you are hiring for is in that list, hire the person. If most of it is scheduling, drafting and chasing, try Teddo first and see what is left.
The cost at your size
Teddo Pro is $79 a month for 1,000 requests. A request is one thing you ask for, however many steps it takes: “find a slot with Dan, send the invite and tell me when it’s done” is one. A busy founder asking for 20 things a working day uses about 440 a month, well within Pro. A lighter user can stay on pay as you go at $0.09 a request, where 200 requests cost $18. Everyone in your Slack shares the plan; there are no per-seat charges. See pricing.
A two-week test before you post the job
- Write down the ten tasks you would hand a new EA in week one.
- Add Teddo to Slack and connect your Google account.
- Hand it those tasks over two weeks, exactly as you would to a person.
- Keep the list of what it handled and what it could not. That second list is your job description.
Safe by default
Each person connects their own Google account, and Teddo acts only in the account of the person who asked. It sees only Slack messages that mention it or are sent to it. Your data is stored in Frankfurt, Germany, never used to train AI models, and deleted within 30 days if you leave. The AI providers it uses process requests in the United States.
