Beya is the AI agent built for revenue, product and sales analytics; the messy, time-consuming back-office tasks that pull you away from your customers. Our iPhone app puts that agent in your pocket and turns your phone into things every business needs: a register, an analyst, a salesperson. ACCEPT PAYMENTS ANYWHERE Tap to Pay on iPhone lets you take card and contactless payments with no extra hardware. Customers tap, you get paid. For remote sales, share a Payment Link by text, AirDrop, or any messaging app. Your customer pays from their own device. STOREFRONT MODE Switch into storefront mode and let Beya act as a hands-free sales assistant. While you talk to customers, the agent listens, builds the cart in real time, pulls from your inventory, and gets the order ready to charge. Your hands stay on the product and your eyes stay on the customer. YOUR INVENTORY, IN SYNC Connect Shopify or Square and Beya pulls in your full product catalog. Add items by tapping a product or typing a custom amount. Prices, variants, and stock stay in sync with whatever platform you already run. ONE PLACE FOR EVERY SALE Every transaction flows into Beya's payment history with full receipts and order details. Filter by status, payment method, or date. No more chasing transactions across Stripe, your point of sale, and your e-commerce backend. BUILT FOR SMALL BUSINESSES Beya is a specialized agent that understands the workflows small business owners actually run — checkout, inventory, daily operations — and removes the friction. The iPhone app is one way to use it; the agent works wherever you do.
