HeyBobKeep ChatGPT for thinking. Hire Bob for doing.
You already pay for ChatGPT, and you should keep it. Bob is for the other half of the week: the reports, updates and copying between apps that waste your day.
- Spending limit on every plan
- Cost shown under every job
- Free redo if he gets it wrong
- Cancel anytime
Your Monday, two ways.
Say the weekly numbers go to the team every Monday. Here is how that morning goes.
With a chat
- Open the CRM and export last week’s deals.
- Open the spreadsheet and export that too.
- Paste both into ChatGPT and ask for a summary.
- Fix the formatting so it reads right for the team.
- Copy it into the channel and post it.
- Do it all again next Monday.
ChatGPT did a good job on step 3. Steps 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 were still yours.
With Bob
- The summary is already in the channel, posted before you got there.
- Two deals need a follow-up email. He drafted both, and each one waits on a single Approve tap.
- Under the post sits a receipt: what it cost, how long it took, and what he touched.
You told him once, “post the pipeline summary every Monday at 9.” That is the whole setup.
What ChatGPT does well, and it does a lot.
ChatGPT is a superb assistant, and it has grown well past a chat box. Here is what OpenAI’s own pages said.
From free to $100 a month
Free, Go at $8, Plus at $20 and Pro from $100. Plus adds projects, scheduled tasks and custom GPTs, and tasks can fire on Gmail, Slack or GitHub activity.
A private sidebar
Each person gets a sidebar to draft replies, summarize threads and search messages and files they can already see.
Workspace agents
On Business, Enterprise and Edu, people build shared agents that connect to apps, run on a schedule and post into Slack. Business is $25 a person a month, two seats minimum.
That last one is close to what Bob does, and we would rather you hear it from us. So here is what is actually different.
What is different about Bob.
He works as you
OpenAI says an agent in Slack runs every app through one shared account. Bob opens your inbox and your CRM rows, under your own sign-in.
You hire him, not build him
A workspace agent is built in an agent builder, and only its owner can change it. With Bob, anyone just asks.
A receipt underneath
What it cost, how long it took, what he touched and who approved it. The OpenAI pages we checked do not describe one.
$75 for the whole team
No per-seat fees, and a monthly cap he will not cross. Bring your own OpenAI or Anthropic key for $349 a month flat.
He keeps going
Schedules and triggers run after you shut your laptop. The finished work lands where the team already is.
Redone free
Job wrong because of Bob? He does it again on us.
He takes the meeting notes
Hit record on any call. No bot joins. When it ends, tap Have Bob do it on an action item and he does the follow-up.
Pages and apps
One sentence gets a live page of your numbers, or a small app your team works in, hosted by HeyBob.
Slack or his own app
Not on Slack? The HeyBob app on Mac, Windows and Linux works on its own.
The receipt. Every answer shows what it cost.
The limit. One cap for the team, one per person. He stops there.
Side by side.
| What you can check | ChatGPT | Bob |
|---|---|---|
| Price for a team | $25 a person a month on Business, two seats minimum, plus workspace credits | $75 a month for the workspace, no per-seat fees |
| Whose login | One shared account for every app an agent uses in Slack | Each person’s own access |
| Who sets it up | The agent’s owner, in the agent builder | Anyone, by asking |
| Cost of each job | Credit rate card and monthly limits | A receipt under every finished job |
| Before a change | Agents’ changes ask first by default | Asks first by default, per app and per action |
| Meeting notes | Not covered on the pages we checked | Notes on any call with no bot, then the follow-ups |
| Best at | Thinking, writing and research with a person at the keyboard | The repeat work between your apps |
Keep one. Hire the other.
For thinking.
Writing, research, brainstorming, working a problem through with a person at the keyboard. It is excellent at that, and nothing here asks you to give it up.
For doing.
The Monday report, the follow-ups from this morning’s call, the numbers copied from one app into another. Bob does them under each person’s own access, with your OK before anything changes and a receipt for every job.
Fair questions.
We already pay for ChatGPT. Why would we add Bob?
Keep ChatGPT for thinking: writing, research, working through a problem. Hire Bob for doing: the reports, updates and copying between apps that eat your week. He works inside your team’s real tools, asks for your OK before anything changes, and posts a receipt showing what each job cost.
Doesn’t ChatGPT have agents in Slack now?
Yes. On ChatGPT Business, Enterprise and Edu, a workspace agent is built in ChatGPT’s agent builder, and only its owner can deploy it to a Slack channel or change its apps once it is live there. OpenAI’s help center says an agent used in Slack must run every app connection through one shared account. Bob works under each person’s own access, and every finished job ends with a receipt of what it cost.
Can ChatGPT run things on a schedule?
Yes. OpenAI lists scheduled tasks from the Free plan up, and event-triggered tasks on Gmail, Slack or GitHub activity for Plus and above. Bob also runs on schedules and triggers, and posts the finished work where the team already is.
What does Bob cost?
Plans start at $75 a month per workspace, half price through December 31, 2026, with no per-seat fees, and you can set a monthly limit he will not cross. The first $100 of work is free for 14 days. With your own OpenAI or Anthropic key, the plan is $349 a month flat and the token bill goes straight to your provider.
Will Bob change things in our tools without asking?
No. Reads are reads. Changes wait for an Approve or Deny tap by default, and you decide per tool and per action what is automatic.
