Dooza Crew is a hosted team of AI agents for small businesses. You brief a lead agent in plain words from the web or your phone, and it builds helper agents (a researcher, a writer, an outreach agent), splits the job between them and saves the work to your files. Each agent has its own computer and real browser, so the team can research, write, do browser work and take phone calls, included.

A common first step is one general assistant that everyone can use for drafting, summarising, research and spreadsheet work. ChatGPT Business and Claude Team are both $25 per user per month billed monthly and add shared workspaces and admin controls over the personal plans. Pick one for the whole company: one bill, one place for shared prompts and instructions, one set of data rules.
If your company runs on Microsoft 365, Copilot Business works on your own email, documents and meetings inside Outlook, Word, Excel and Teams; Microsoft lists it at $21 per user per month billed yearly ($25.20 billed monthly), on top of your Microsoft 365 plan. On Google Workspace, Gemini is included in the business plans: Starter has it in Gmail and chat, and Standard adds it to Docs, Sheets and Meet. Many companies give the suite AI to everyone and a general assistant to the heavy users.
Tidio puts a chat widget on your site, and its Lyro AI agent answers customer questions, priced by conversations (from $32.50 a month for 50) rather than seats. It has a free plan to test with. Route anything it can't answer to a person.
Dooza Crew is our product and our top pick for small businesses. Crew agents take phone calls too. It is included with Crew (free to try, no card needed), so there is no separate phone service to buy. A human service costs more per minute: Ruby lists $250 a month for 50 minutes. Our answering service comparison compares 20 services at public prices.
To compare more options, G2, Capterra and GetApp have user reviews by category, and the marketplaces of Microsoft, Google, Salesforce and HubSpot list AI add-ons that work with the data you already keep there.

For most companies, a general AI assistant for everyone (ChatGPT Business or Claude Team, $25 per user per month billed monthly) plus the AI in the office suite you already use (Copilot for Microsoft 365, Gemini for Google Workspace).
At October 2026 list prices, a general assistant for a 10-person team is about $250 a month billed monthly; Copilot Business is $21 per user per month billed yearly, on top of Microsoft 365. Department tools such as Tidio's Lyro or an AI answering service are priced by conversations or minutes, not seats.
Both cost the same at team level ($25 per user per month billed monthly). Try both on your own documents for a week and pick one for the whole company, so prompts, files and data rules live in one place.

Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 is the first model in the Claude 5.5 family. It performs at roughly the level of Claude Fable 5.1 on most work, costs 40% less to run than Opus 5, and generates output more than 30% faster. Here is what changed, how to choose between Opus 5.5, Fable 5.1 and Sonnet 5.5, and what it means for businesses running AI agents.
A two-minute animated video on Western civilization, which its poster says Claude made, reached 15 million views on X.
