Toby, your AI CMO

Toby is the AI CMO who leads your marketing team of 12 AI agents. He learns your business from your website, turns it into a 30-day plan, and every morning tells you what moved, what needs a decision and who does what today. When a task needs a specialist, he hands it to one of the 11 agents on the team, and they answer right there in #team. One point of contact, a whole team behind him.

Daily briefExample

Monday-morning brief for a SaaS

Good morning. Trial sign-ups are up, but the pricing page is leaking: that’s today’s focus. - **41 trial sign-ups** this week (+17%), mostly from the invoice-template article. - Pricing page visits up 22%, but trials started from it are flat: people hesitate between plans. - Organic clicks steady. Leo’s title rewrite from last Tuesday gets measured tomorrow. **To decide today** - Approve Leo’s update of /pricing (new FAQ on cancellation and refunds). - Pick the annual offer: 2 months free, or 15% off. Key numbers, last 7 days vs previous 7 Visitors 3,840 (+9%) · Trial sign-ups 41 (+17%) · Revenue $2,310 (+4%) · Google clicks 1,120 (+2%) Today’s plan [ ] Leo — draft the cancellation FAQ for /pricing [ ] Noah — shortlist 15 accounting bloggers for the partner program [ ] Lina — write the founder post about the first 1,000 invoices [ ] Iris — find where pricing-page visitors drop off
Example for Lumio, a fictional invoicing app for freelancers. All numbers are illustrative.
Recommendation rankingExample

How four ideas get ranked

Score = monthly impact × confidence ÷ effort (low = 1, medium = 2, high = 4) 1. Rewrite the titles of 4 high-impression pages (Leo) $1,100 × 0.8 ÷ 1 = **880** 2. Trial-to-paid emails around the first invoice sent (Toby) $2,600 × 0.6 ÷ 2 = **780** 3. Launch an accountant partner program (Noah) $3,500 × 0.4 ÷ 4 = **350** 4. Brand + “alternative” search campaign (Sam) $1,200 × 0.5 ÷ 2 = **300** Why the partner program is third: it has the biggest upside, but it takes weeks to build and its result depends on partners we haven’t met yet. The title rewrite ships today on pages that already get impressions.

RecommendationExample

Homepage headline that names the result

Rewrite the homepage headline around getting paid faster Why: the headline says “The all-in-one invoicing platform”: it names the category, not the result. Your own FAQ says “most invoices are paid within 9 days”, and that is the proof a freelancer wants to read first. Evidence - “The all-in-one invoicing platform” (/) - “most invoices are paid within 9 days” (/faq) Impact, example estimate: 3,800 visitors/month (GA4) × 2.1% trial rate × +10–20% (benchmark: outcome-led headlines) ≈ +8–16 trials/month ≈ +$190–380 MRR Effort: Low · Owner: Toby First step, ready to paste 1. Get paid in 9 days, not 30. / Invoices, reminders and card payments for freelancers, in one place. 2. Stop chasing clients. / Lumio sends the reminders, you get paid. Most invoices are settled within 9 days. 3. Your invoices, paid on time. / Built for freelancers who would rather work than chase payments. [Apply] [Later] [Dismiss]

The playbooks

  1. 1

    30-day plan

    Turns the Brand Brain and your goal into a week-by-week plan with an owner for every line. Few moves, in a sensible order, revised when results arrive.

  2. 2

    Daily brief

    Every morning: the takeaway of the day, what moved and why, what needs your decision, and the team’s plan as a checklist. Interpretation first, not a list of numbers.

  3. 3

    Weekly report

    Every Monday: results against the goal, what worked with the number behind it, what to watch, and next week’s bets with an owner for each.

  4. 4

    Recommendation ranking

    Impact × confidence ÷ effort, with impact expressed in dollars per month and derived from a baseline you can verify. Recommendations come from data signals and a library of proven plays, never from generic advice.

  5. 5

    Positioning and offer plays

    The work a CMO keeps for himself: outcome-led headlines, proof above the fold, the pricing page, annual plans, bundles, free-shipping thresholds and the next seasonal peak, each with the copy already written.

How approval works

  • Toby reads your connected tools freely. Anything that writes, such as publishing a page, sending an email or inviting a partner, becomes a “To approve” card that you accept or refuse.

  • Every recommendation has three buttons: Apply, Later, Dismiss. Dismiss with a reason and he learns from it; the reason is saved in the team’s memory so the team doesn’t propose the same thing again.

  • He never spends ad budget. On Autopilot (Toby and the company both set to it) he may apply up to two low-effort quick wins a day, and only safe actions run alone: drafts and posts on your own channels, never ads.

  • The Pause button stops the whole team at once. A daily AI cost cap and the action log keep everything visible.

Security and trust

Tools Toby works with

Toby can use every tool you connect, including those added through “Add any tool” (MCP server, API or webhook). Meta Ads and Google Ads account connections are waiting for the platforms’ app review: until then he plans paid budgets from your analytics and revenue data.

Frequently asked questions

What is an AI CMO?

An AI CMO is a software agent that does the planning side of a marketing lead’s job: understand the business, decide what matters this month, rank the options and make sure someone does them. In Toby, the AI CMO is Toby himself: he does that and coordinates 11 specialist agents (SEO, Meta Ads, Google Ads, influence, affiliates, Reddit, X, LinkedIn, social media, UGC video, data). He prepares; you decide.

Is Toby a fractional CMO alternative?

For an early-stage company, he covers much of what a fractional CMO is hired for: a clear plan, priorities, a weekly rhythm and someone who turns ideas into ready-to-use work. He doesn’t replace human judgment on brand bets, hiring or board conversations, and he can be wrong. Many founders use him before they can afford a fractional CMO, or alongside one to do the execution.

Will Toby invent numbers if I haven’t connected anything?

No. A company with no connected tool has no metrics in the app, and Toby is told not to state traffic, conversion or revenue figures as facts. His recommendations then rely on exact quotes from your site and the audit, and any estimate starts from a stated assumption you can correct.

How does Toby decide what to recommend?

Three inputs: signals detected in your connected data (a drop, a page close to the top of Google, a channel converting far above average), a library of around 55 proven growth plays, and the Brand Brain. A second, critical review then checks each idea for specificity, evidence and a ready-to-use first step, and rewrites or discards the weak ones.

Can I talk to Toby from Slack or Discord?

Yes. Connect Slack or Discord and the team answers in your channel and by direct message; #team is mirrored there. Approvals still happen in Toby, so nothing is published from a chat message by accident.

How much does Toby cost?

Toby comes with the whole team in one plan: $99 a month per company, with all 11 specialist agents and every integration. There is a 7-day free trial and you can cancel anytime.
