Frequently Asked Questions

Why should Dayton businesses replace Zapier and off-the-shelf SaaS?

Zapier charges per-task execution fees, imposes artificial step limits, and breaks whenever vendor connectors change. 7 Layer Studio engineers custom, API-native software connecting your Google Workspace, CRM, and billing directly. You pay a one-time build fee, own the code outright, and pay $0/month in software subscriptions.

How does missed-call text-back help local contractors and field services?

Over 85% of callers who reach voicemail hang up and call the next competitor on Google. Our custom text-back engine fires a personalized SMS within 15 seconds of an unanswered call, engaging the prospect immediately and locking in the estimate.

Do I have to pay monthly retainer fees to 7 Layer Studio?

No. Our core philosophy is Zero-SaaS and code ownership. We quote transparent, fixed-price project fees for every build. The client owns the code and intellectual property outright with zero mandatory agency retainers.

How fast can an automation system be deployed?

Most standard builds—such as Google API integrations, review generation engines, or missed-call text-back systems—are architected, tested, and handed off within 3 to 7 business days.
