Guides for running your business by chat

Almost everything you do with Yims.ai happens in a chat. You send your menu as a photo, write your opening hours in a message, switch bookings to manual approval, ask for a dashboard link — all from the same thread you already have open on your phone.

These guides cover the three things owners set up most: your catalog, your bookings, and your dashboard and channels. Each one is short, and each one describes what you actually type.

Pick what you need to do

Three short guides, in the order most owners need them.

Connect a messaging channel

Each channel has its own connection flow and its own way of granting owner access. Pick yours.

One rule that applies everywhere

Every instruction in these guides assumes you are messaging from an owner-connected chat — the identity that is linked to your business as an owner or admin. That identity is what authorizes a change, not the wording of the request.

If your identity is linked to more than one business, check which one is currently selected before you import or edit anything. The owner chat can switch the active business for you in the same thread.

Configuration changes cannot be made from a product support conversation. If you are talking to support, they can tell you what to do — you still make the change from your own owner chat.

Anything not covered here

These guides cover the setup tasks owners hit most often. For anything else, ask in your owner chat — the assistant knows how your own business is configured, which is more than any general guide can, and it will put a human in the loop when it cannot answer.
