We do the tasks you shouldn't. While founders should focus on product and sales, everything else—the chores—can be handled by experts. If you're not building a chore-related product, why waste time on operations?

Yes. We built Chore for one reason and one reason only: help founders and executives reduce their operation burden so they return to their core focus: product and customers.

Beautiful, seamless operations form the foundation of every stable business. But managing dozens of SaaS tools before you can even start your real work? That's insane.
‍
Take a simple new hire:
‍
1. Send offer and confidentiality letter.
2. Get letter executed (this is critical and something far too many founders miss as they are, of course, moving fast!).
3. Add new hire to payroll provider (such as Gusto).
4. Issue new hire equity (such as in Carta).
5. register Worker's compensation (State government website).
6. Update financial projections (in Excel or your other financial tools).
7. Issue credit card (such as with Ramp).
8. Set up with expense software (such as with Expensify).

Now imagine all of this happening automatically. Every step executed perfectly, while you focus on what truly matters. That's what Chore delivers.

Deep breath. We've got this.

Our pricing scales with your business's growth and complexity. As your dedicated operations team, we consider your team size, operational volume, and specific needs. We've built our pricing to ensure you receive exceptional value while saving 75-90% compared to building an in-house team.
‍
Want specifics? Let's talk. We'll analyze your needs and provide transparent pricing that aligns with your stage.
‍
Our guarantee: Your ROI will always exceed your investment. If it doesn't, fire us.

Back-office encompasses everything that powers your business behind the scenes - everything that isn't product development or customer acquisition. If it's not your core competency, it's back-office work that we handle.

Our four pillars of operations:
1. Human Resources (HR)
2. Finance
3. Compliance
4. Equity

Important note: We complement, not replace, your specialized partners. While we don't provide legal or accounting services, we coordinate seamlessly with your lawyers, bookkeepers, and accountants. Think of us as your operational command center - we ensure every aspect of your back-office runs with precision while you focus on growth.

Through relentless transparency and real-time visibility. Your dedicated Operations Partner delivers:

- Live dashboard tracking every task
- Regular status updates via Slack/email
- Detailed activity logs and reports
- Proactive communication on all critical items

Think of your best employee - one who executes perfectly and keeps you informed without needing management. That's Chore. We operate with such transparency that you'll never wonder about the status of any operational task.
‍
Our goal: You stop worrying about operations entirely because you can see everything happening in real-time. No stress, no uncertainty - just flawless execution.

Absolutely. We leverage enterprise-grade tools to deliver Fortune 500-level operations:
‍
Your operations stack: We'll optimize your existing tools (Gusto, Carta, QuickBooks) while recommending best-in-class solutions that make your startup look and run like a professional, tech-forward organization.

Our operations platform: We use sophisticated project management and tracking systems to document, monitor, and report on every task we handle. This ensures perfect execution and complete visibility.

We treat your data with enterprise-grade protection:

Mandatory 2-factor authentication across all platforms
Regular password rotation and secure password management
Operations conducted within your secured environment
All work performed in your cloud-based tools

Your security is our priority. By working within your existing secure infrastructure (Google Workspace, banking platforms, credit systems), we maintain your established security protocols while adding our additional protective measures.

Why do large companies have their own operations team but small businesses leaders are expected to run operations by themselves? We think that is backwards. Small businesses need to outsource operations to a trusted teammate immediately since every minute wasted on operations is a minute you are closer to death. Focus is the most important skill an early stage team can learn. Figuring out how a dozen back-end operations tools work (and which ones to use) is not a good time investment.

Our seasoned operators are like the "business" founder you wish you had but for 1/20th of the cost. We're an extension of your team, available over Slack / email / text. It's like an Operator AMA (Ask Me Anything); we know answers to almost everything, and find the answer or point you in the right direction when we don't.

‍Your routine needs will be on autopilot:

‍- We operate your existing business systems + processes from a dedicated new ops@[yourdomain.com] mailbox.
- Document issuance and management.
- Vendor contracts, payments, renewals, etc.
- Local, state, and regulatory registrations and handling compliance needs as they arise such as worker's compensation.

‍We help with vendor research, recommendations and provisioning
- We identify and sign you up for the best products and services, for every need at every stage.
- When you're thinking about a new tool, we give you an exec summary of the options, tradeoffs, ease of use and pricing. You'll save hundreds of hours a year.
‍- Stop spending hours researching health insurance. We summarize options, costs and tradeoffs for you. No more paradox of choice.

- Hiring: Build out Job Descriptions. Pick / set up the right ATS. Engage recruiters.
- Growth marketing: Assemble a growth playbook for your business. Set channels.
- Sales Operations: Playbook designed for the specifics of client’s business (e.g., SaaS vs. DTC vs. Fintech).

Financial Impact:While public companies spend 10% of cash on operations annually, Chore saves you 75-90% compared to building an in-house team. That's significant runway extension for your startup.
‍
Time Reclaimed:The average founding team loses 10+ hours weekly to back-office work. That doesn't count the productivity cost of constant context switching and learning complex operational systems. With Chore, you reclaim 95% of that time.
‍
Competitive Edge:Think about it: Chore gives you an extra day every week to focus on growth - that's 52 additional workdays annually dedicated to building your core business. When competing against distracted founders, who do you think wins?

Because focus equals growth. As serial entrepreneurs who've built $500M+ companies, we know the secret to startup success: ruthless focus on product and customers. Everything else is a distraction.
‍
That's why we created Chore. We handle the entire back-office so you can concentrate on what matters. You'll only hear from us when we need strategic decisions or approvals - we handle everything else.
‍
Think of us as your operational brain, ensuring your company runs perfectly while you build the future.

Now. Here's why:
‍
Operational complexity compounds daily. Every hour spent wrestling with back-office tasks is time lost forever. The sooner you bring in operational expertise, the faster you can return to your superpower: building and growing your business.
‍
And definitely before your next fundraise.

While perfect operations alone won't win your next round, messy operations can kill it. VCs consistently choose founders who have their house in order. When diligence begins, which founder would you bet on - the one with instant access to every document and answer, or the one scrambling for weeks to find basic information?

Clear boundaries make great partnerships. We don't:

-Provide legal or tax advice
-Direct product strategy
-Guide marketing/sales
-Manage tech stack decisions

These areas require specialized expertise or are core to your business. While we maintain strong relationships with top-tier specialists in legal, tax, and other domains, our focus remains on operational excellence.

Need a referral? We're happy to connect you with trusted partners from our network. Our extensive experience with vendors and service providers helps us point you in the right direction, even for services we don't provide.

Our vendor selection process focuses on three key criteria:

-Perfect fit for your specific needs
-Integration capabilities with your tech stack
-Service quality and responsiveness

We evaluate each option through the lens of your current needs and future growth. While we make recommendations, you maintain full control - no vendor is selected without your team's input and approval.

Transparency note: Some vendors offer us affiliate revenue, but this never influences our recommendations. Our priority is finding the perfect solution for your business - your success drives our success, not referral fees.
