I am giving away automated virtual offices this week

Hi Hacker News! My team and I have been working on a NodeJS/Express/React/PSQL project for the past ten months. We are ready to see what people will do with this project and as a part of our rollout, I would like to offer anyone who is a consultant or freelancer, an online automated tool to sell and manage your services at no cost (Only this week)! I would like to receive some feedback and improve our current beta product. The Github link is: https://github.com/service-bot/servicebot You can comment if you are interested, or email us at team@servicebot.io
