Structured needs-discovery for SMBs
We pick what’s worth
automating.
You don’t have unlimited time. Describe how your week actually goes — crux2core finds the crux, the tasks whose absence costs you most, and matches the templates worth running. Across six verticals.
Run these two this week. Skip the rest.
01 · How it works
Three minutes in, a ranked list out.
Describe your week
Plain language, about three minutes. Free text, a guided form, or a conversation with Chief — whatever is easiest.
We map it
The Mapper breaks your description into tasks and scores what automation can actually win back — by hours, not hype.
Deploy what’s worth it
A short, ranked list of templates with confidence scores. We tell you what to skip, too.
02 · The six
Six verticals. Each one’s own vocabulary.
A law firm and a fitness studio don’t have the same operating problems. Each vertical hub speaks its own language.
03 · What we don’t do
The shortlist of refusals.
Most ranked lists don’t tell you what to skip. We do. And we don’t pretend to do things we don’t.
We don’t build custom workflows.
If a template doesn’t serve many operators, it isn’t a template. We add one when enough owners sign the gap queue for it.
We don’t sell seats.
One price per location. Your whole team can use it. We don’t care how many hosts you have.
We don’t replace your POS, PMS, or practice software.
We sit on top. Toast, Resy, Dentrix, Clio, Mindbody — we read; we don’t replace.
We don’t auto-send anything without you signing off.
You approve the first runs. Then the template earns the privilege — and asks again the moment your patterns change.

No sales pitch. We just want to understand.
Tell us about your business and what eats your time.
The more specific the better. What does a typical week look like? What takes longer than it should?
