Switch your business to v3

Businesses on the classic harness can now switch to v3 from the dashboard: one main agent you steer by chat, a daily run, and nothing rebuilt. Your site, products, checkout and inbox stay exactly where they are.

Your v2 business can switch to v3 today. Open its dashboard, press Switch to v3, answer a short interview, and hand the business to one main agent you steer by chat. Nothing is rebuilt: your site, products, checkout, inbox, tasks, balance and code stay exactly where they are.

What v3 is

v3 runs a business with one main agent instead of CEO cycles and task workers. You steer it in chat, in plain language. Its memory is your business's own repository: what it decides and ships is committed as code and documents, so nothing gets lost in a chat log. Once a day it runs on its own and keeps the business moving. You pay per agent turn.

Every new business started on the web already founds on v3. The switch is how existing ones come over, and it is entirely opt-in.

How to switch

  1. Open your business's dashboard.
  2. Open Menu and choose Switch to v3. The one-line banner on the dashboard and Business Settings → Harness open the same sheet.
  3. Read the sheet and press Switch to v3. A short interview starts, and it is free.
  4. Answer a few questions. The agent reads your live site and your business's data, then writes your pitch, brand and flow as the business is today. No new idea, no rename.
  5. Review the three files and press Switch to v3.

That final press runs the same standing gate as starting a business: a Founder plan or a live trial, and at least 12 credits. A switch grants no welcome credits (the welcome grant is for your first founding). If you are on Light, you will be asked for the Founder plan first.

What stays, what changes

Stays: your site, your products and checkout, your inbox, your tasks, your balance, your code. The switch itself changes nothing your customers can see.

Changes: who runs the place. CEO cycles and task workers stop. One main agent takes over, steered from a single chat, with a daily run. Billing moves to per agent turn.

The first session reads before it touches

The first v3 session is a takeover, and it is deliberately read-only. The agent reads the brief, the code and the live site, tidies the task list, and reports back with a digest. It ships nothing, redesigns nothing, pushes nothing. You see what it understood before it acts.

The step-by-step and the details live in the docs: Switching an existing business to v3.

If you run a v2 business, the switch is waiting in the Menu: open your dashboard and press Switch to v3.

FAQ

Does switching cost anything?

The interview is free. Pressing Switch to v3 needs a Founder plan or a live trial and at least 12 credits, and no welcome credits are granted on a switch. After the switch, the business bills per agent turn like any v3 business, starting with the takeover session.

What happens to my site, products and inbox?

They stay. The switch keeps your site, products, checkout, inbox, tasks, balance and code exactly as they are, and the first session is read-only.

Which businesses can switch?

Any active or paused business on the classic (v2) harness. Archived businesses cannot switch. New businesses started on the web already found on v3.

Do I have to switch?

No. Nothing moves unless you press Switch to v3. Your v2 business keeps running as it does today.
