Questions people ask before they start

What does Castan do on the first day?

You connect one source, Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, GitHub or Stripe, and ask the first question within minutes. Send it to your next call and everyone on it gets the recap. From there it chases the invoices, keeps the books and remembers every promise.

Does it act on its own?

It proposes. A reminder, a reply, a commit: anything that leaves the company waits for your approval, one button. Custom agents run on their schedule and put what they want to do in front of you the same way.

What can it read, and can it send mail as me?

The connections are read-only: Gmail and Calendar through Google’s read-only scopes, Stripe through a restricted read key. Castan sends only its own mail: meeting recaps, invitations, its notices to you, and an invoice reminder once you approve it.

Who owns what it makes?

You do. The website, the code, the customers, the data. Studio writes into a GitHub repository you own, as pull requests you review, and you can take the code anywhere.

What does it cost?

One flat price per company, never per seat. Free to start, with no card. Founding is $29 a month, Growth $299, and the first twenty customers pay $199 a month for Growth, for life.

What is in the free plan?

Up to 3 people, 2 connected sources with the last 200 items of each, one meeting hour a month, 12 questions a day and one website build. Allowances may change; the pricing page always shows the current ones.

Which calls can it join?

Google Meet, Zoom and Microsoft Teams. With your calendar connected it joins from the invitation, and two minutes after the call ends everyone on it has the decisions and the promises.

Where is my data, and who can see it?

On servers in the European Union, encrypted in transit and at rest, each workspace isolated from every other: a query without your workspace returns nothing. Connection tokens are encrypted again at the application layer. Card details go to Stripe and never touch our servers.

Do I need to be technical?

You describe the company in a sentence. Castan drafts the definition, reads the odds, starts the website and asks before anything goes out. A developer on your side can take the code at any time.

Can I stop whenever I want?

Yes, any time, from Settings. What you built and what Castan remembers stay yours.
