Can AI actually pick Pantone colors?

AI can suggest close matches from HEX/RGB/CMYK, but you must verify with a physical Pantone guide before mixing ink.

Will an AI phone bot replace my staff?

No. It handles FAQs and spam so your team focuses on qualified calls.

Do I need paid tools to start?

You can start free. Upgrade only when a workflow clearly saves time or money.
