# Novala: AI-assembled operations for growing businesses

> Novala assembles CRM, field service, inspections, scheduling, and finance modules tailored to your business. Get started in minutes.

Novala is an AI-powered business operating system that composes the right set of tools for your team — from contact management and sales pipelines to OSHA-compliant inspections, technician dispatch, and automated invoicing. Instead of forcing you into a one-size-fits-all platform, Novala activates only the modules your business needs and connects them through a unified AI layer.

## How Novala is structured

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose your packages">
    Every account starts with the Novala Platform (contacts, pipeline, AI Copilot, workflows). Add the **Field Service** package for inspections, scheduling, and equipment tracking, or the **Finance Ops** package for invoicing, purchasing, and inventory.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Activate your modules">
    Go to **Settings → Modules** to enable the capabilities your team needs. Modules connect automatically — completing an inspection can trigger an invoice draft, a notification, and a workflow action.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Invite your team">
    Add users under **Settings → Users** and assign them roles: admin, coordinator, technician, or sales. Each role has the right permissions out of the box.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start working">
    Open your dashboard to see a unified view across all active modules. The AI Copilot is available on every page to answer questions and help you navigate.
