Sintra is built for non-technical business owners who have very little knowledge of how to use AI and want a very easy introduction. Sintra's AI "helpers" are like digital consultants that give you ideas fast, without needing any prompting making it super easy to use.
Would we recommend it to more serious business owner who already uses tools like ChatGPT? No. For serious operators, it more so feels like playing a business-themed video game.
We believe there are better options available in this category, read below to learn what they do well, and what they could do better. ⤵
Build, grow, and scale your business with a team of AI helpers.
Sintra is an AI "business assistant" that acts like a coach/consultant hybrid.
It's very very very simple and straight forward to use, someone with literally 0 experience using AI can use it. Sintra's onboarding is like a video game, with characters that ask you questions about your business goals. They also ask for your website URL to get to know your business better.
By the time you're finished with onboarding, Sintra's AI Helpers are already suggesting work they can do for you. All you need to do is approve to deny the task. If you approve the task, the helper will get to work and complete the task for you.
Sintra is for very small business owners who aren't sure what to focus on and don’t want to mess with ChatGPT or other tools that might feel intimidating.
When Sintra asks about your business revenue goals, the highest option you can select is $100K/month, which tells you exactly who they're targeting: new small businesses, solo entrepreneurs, side hustlers, yoga instructors, mom-and-pop shops, etc.
So say you're a business owner in your 70s who wants to dabble in AI but find most tools overwhelming—Sintra would be worth trying.
Sintra felt more like playing a fun game, getting a business analysis with fun ideas of what we could improve. I'd say the ideas were quite good, as in, if a human that we were hiring made the same suggestions of what we could improve, I'd consider them quite smart and switched on.
Not for power users
Sintra is not for power users, technical founders, or seasoned marketers. In fact, I could not get Alex (our CEO) to even use it for 5 minutes. He said "it looks like I am playing a kids game and it's not a serious business tool 😂". Consider this before pitching your team on using Sintra. If they are more technical or well-versed with AI, they might be skeptical and dismiss it.
Underwhelming Task Execution
While Sintra's AI Helpers were great at coming up with ideas/suggestions for tasks, the actual execution of the tasks was underwhelming. We weren't able to actually use any of the work the helpers did. Entering the same prompts in ChatGPT (that has context on our business since we've been using it for years) consistantly yielded better results.
Data Sensitivity Concerns
Every day I logged into Sintra, the AI Helpers had more questions, many of which felt deeply personal to our business. They asked things like our exact revenue metrics, where the majority of our income comes from, and other specific operational details. To be fair, these were smart and relevant questions. But we didn't feel comfortable entering that kind of sensitive data into Sintra.
This isn't to throw Sintra under the bus - we're not claiming anything shady is going on. But the fact that the thought even crossed my mind ("Is this just a data-harvesting wrapper?") was enough for me to pause. When you're dealing with AI tools in the business space, trust is everything. And in this case, the line between helpful and too personal got a little blurry.
Sintra's onboarding is like a video game, with characters that ask you questions about your business goals. They also ask for your website URL to get to know your business better.
Then, once it's gathered a bit of information about your business, Sintra's AI helpers start suggesting tasks that they can complete. You can either accept or deny their suggestions.
For the tasks that you accept, Sinta's AI Helpers will get to work. Sintra's interface is super simple to use and chat like.
What people like about Sintra is that as it learns more about your business, the longer you use it, the better and smarter it's meant to get.
Instead of you needing to prompt anything, Sintra's AI agents proactively ask you a few simple questions and then recommend actual work to do. This is the kind of stuff it suggested to do for us:
The ideas were smart given how little input it required. It felt like a business coach had scanned our online presence and said, 'Here's what's missing.' That said, I'd rate the execution of these tasks 2/10. They weren't usable in the current form, more of a first rough draft that still required a significant amount of leg-work to become usable.
That said, if I had 0 marketing experience? I think I'd be impressed and might have even copy and pasted. So if you don't have a lot of marketing knowledge, Sintra could be what you're looking for.
Each AI helper has its own workspace, and you can interact via chat, voice dictation, or image uploads.
What's nice is that the interface removes overwhelm. Everything is neatly compartmentalized and easy to use.
You give it your website and a few facts, and it pulls a surprising amount of accurate context, it even found our YouTube channel unprompted.
It was delightful to see a tool that "got"our business this quickly. Prompt fatigue is real, and Sintra did a good job at being proactive.
That said, the novelty faded after the first day that I logged in. I felt uncomfortabel giving Sintra more information on our business and therefore the tasks it suggested were not great. By the end of the week, I stopped using Sintra and haven't felt pulled to log back in.
We tried it for a month, and for the $40 or so that we paid, the few ideas it gave us were worthwhile. But once the novelty wears off, it's hard to justify continuing paying for Sintra. There's no free tier, so you're paying to try for 'fun.'
If you're not tech-saavy, don't have much marketing experience, and have wanted to use AI in your business in a super easy way, then we'd say Sintra is worth trying. But if you're a more serious business owner, you'll probably feel like Sintra is a bit too immature for your needs. If you're looking for something similar to Sintra but wish it was more business saavy, check out Motion AI Employees as an alternative (it's what we use).
