## ✅ Your OpsLight is live,

Three URLs below. The email address is the important one. Give it to your customers, and Claude classifies everything they send onto your dashboard.

📧 Your new customer email

Send a test email

Give this address to your customers. Put it on your business cards, your Yelp listing, your website's contact info. When they email here, Claude classifies it (urgency, trade, deal size), files it on your dashboard, and texts you on emergencies.

🌐 Your contact form

Open in new tab

Add this URL as a "Contact Us" link anywhere: your website, your Google Business Profile, your Yelp page. No code, no install on your site.

📊 Your dashboard

Open dashboard

Bookmark this on your phone. It's read-only. The system writes here for you. Coming online: live in this session.

📋 Where to put your new email address

- **Your business cards**: next time you print, swap your old email for `-`.

- **Your Google Business Profile**: edit your contact info. Replace your old email with the new one.

- **Your Yelp / Angi / Nextdoor / HomeAdvisor profiles**: same edit. Anywhere a customer might reach you.

- **Your website's "Contact us" section**: show the email address there, OR use the contact form URL below instead.

- **Email signatures**, if you send quotes from your existing inbox, update your signature so replies come to OpsLight.

Your old email keeps working. You don't have to change anything in Gmail / Outlook / your phone. New customers who get the new address email OpsLight directly. Old customers who still use your old email reach you the old way. The transition is gradual. You don't have to flip a switch.
