# Run Your Business on Genesis

**Describe your business in plain English and get a real, running app — then put it on your own domain with logins and run your operation on it.** No code. No sales call.

Thousands of operators — consultants, clinics, realtors, agencies, construction and logistics teams — already run their day-to-day on a Taskade Genesis app. This track stitches the pieces into one path: **build → add your data → add logins → put it on your domain → go live.**

## Pick what you're building

New to Taskade Genesis? Start with [Your first app in 5 minutes](/taskade-genesis/genesis/getting-started.md), then come back here to turn it into a business you run.
{% endhint %}

**Build your own, or start from a kit.** Describe your business and [build from scratch](https://www.taskade.com/create), or clone a ready-made app for free from the [community gallery](https://www.taskade.com/community) or [Taskade's official kits](https://www.taskade.com/user/taskade) and make it yours. Both paths lead to the same steps below.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.taskade.com/run-your-business-on-genesis/run-your-business.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
