Or between deliveries, patients and job sites. Lentil builds your website from a short description and keeps it running. After that, you change it with a quick message to ChatGPT or Claude, the assistant you already pay for. Nothing goes live until you say so. ### Tuesday at a Somerville barbershop Example Four messages, about two minutes in total. **10:40**Between a fade and a cut Add beard trims to the price list, $25.
