# Conversation transcript

_Agent: council_

## You

FAQ #6

Does this replace my website?

No.

The website is how you show up: who you are, what you offer, pictures, a way to call or book. People still land there from a search, a card, a friend.

This Asker sits beside the site. It answers the question someone actually has, in their own words, from the knowledge you approved. It does not become your homepage, your store, or your whole presence.

Think of the site as the shop window and the room inside. This door is the person at the counter — except they only say what you have already written down, and they admit it when they do not know.

You still need a place to stand. This is how a visitor gets a direct answer without hunting every page.

## Agent

You brought FAQ #6 on the Asker and the website.

The site remains the shop window and the room. The Asker is the person at the counter who only answers from what’s already approved and written down.
