    What the credit covers

    Everything we do, and we do a lot

    The credit applies to any service we offer, technical or creative. Pick one thing, or tell us what's slowing you down and we'll suggest where $500 goes furthest.

    Technical

    Websites

    A fresh site, a redesign, or fixing the one you already have.

    Internal systems and tools

    Dashboards, small apps, and automations that take busywork off your plate.

    Chatbots

    A friendly assistant on your site that answers questions and captures leads.

    Voice agents

    An AI receptionist that answers calls, books appointments, and never misses a customer.

    Creative and fabrication

    Keychains and stickers

    Custom keychains and stickers with your logo, for customers, events, or the counter.

    Menu stands and displays

    Menu stands, table tents, counter displays, and small signage made for your space.

    Printed menus

    Menus, specials boards, and inserts that look as good as what's on them.

    Business cards and QR codes

    Business cards, QR code cards, and small printed pieces that point people where you want them.

    Token-based loyalty programs

    Physical tokens your customers collect and redeem, with the display and simple rules to run it.

    Personalized games for your shop

    Small tabletop games built around your logo and brand, for the counter, the waiting area, or events.

    Examples of our designs, products, and fabrication work are coming to novabrains.art in the next few days. Until then, just tell us what you have in mind in the application and we'll take it from there.

    FAQ

    The questions we get most

    Anything we missed? Email hello@novabrains.com and a person will answer.

    Not cash, no. The credit is $500 worth of our work and materials, applied to any service we offer. Think of it as hiring us for a project and having the first $500 covered by us.

    No. You don't have to sign anything, buy anything, or return anything. There's no catch waiting at the end. It's a gift from our team to small businesses in our home state, and you're free to walk away at any point.

    Any small business based in North Carolina. We're in Raleigh, so we love hearing from our neighbors, but Charlotte, Durham, Wilmington, Asheville, and every town in between are all welcome. Any industry, any size, brand new or decades old.

    Anything we do. On the technical side that's websites, internal systems and tools, chatbots, and AI voice agents. On the creative side it's keychains, stickers, menu stands, displays, printed menus, business cards, QR codes, token-based loyalty programs, and even personalized games for your shop. If you're not sure what would help most, tell us about your business and we'll suggest something.

    That's fine and very common. We'll tell you upfront what the full project looks like, and you choose. Stop at $500 and keep what we've built, or continue at our normal rates. There's no pressure either way.

    Yes, you can. We give first-time applicants priority so that as many businesses as possible get a turn, which means a second application has a slightly lower chance. But it's never zero, so go ahead and apply.

    All of that is coming to novabrains.art in the next few days, with examples of the keychains, displays, printed pieces, loyalty tokens, and games we make. In the meantime, you can always reach out to us with questions at hello@novabrains.com, or just describe what you have in mind in the application.

    We're a small Raleigh company, and the best relationships we have started with helping someone before they ever paid us. This is our way of meeting more of the people who make North Carolina a great place to run a business.

    Within 48 hours. We read every application ourselves, and if you haven't heard from us in two days, check your spam folder or email hello@novabrains.com and we'll sort it out.
