Beau (https://beau.to/) is a no-code tool that helps businesses automate customer interactions and onboarding. Customers use our software to collect documents, manage payments, send messages and more. For example, tax advisors use Beau to collect documents and send reminders, and immigration consultants use us to automate repetitive client-facing processes. Currently, businesses use a mix of form builders, website builders and CRMs to build this kind of thing. We launched Beau to make it easy for non-technical people to use just one tool to automate their onboarding workflows. We are a small team of 3 founders with an art, design and engineering background. We needed something like Beau when we were onboarding clients to a design agency, and realized we had to build it ourselves.

> immigration consultants use us to automate repetitive client-facing processes

Yes! I couldn’t believe how inefficient the process of sending dozens of documents over email to my immigration lawyers was. Glad to see someone working on that problem.

Beautiful landing page, too.

Thank you, glad to hear!
Just some quick feedback on your mobile site with iPhone Safari:

“Send a clients” typo on home page. Client should be singular.

Pricing page: not clear I could swipe plan cards to right. When attempting to swipe, could not get second card to come into view. Recommend letting them flow beneath.

Thank you for the feedback! Will fix this shortly
This looks really cool. I think there's a definitely need for a lightweight onboarding/CRM tool that non-technical people can easily start using, without having to dive into something more intimidating like Salesforce or Dynamics 365. I love the design of the website too!

I'm not sure if this is intentional, but the "Try for free. No credit card required" panel towards the bottom of the page looks like it's covering some of the sample use cases.

Incredible design on the landing page!
Thank you so much!
I absolutly love the art direction, such a nice break from Corporate Memphis.
