AutoRemind

A few weeks ago, my cousin who runs a small auto garage in Portugal told me about a recurring problem he had.
He keeps all his customers in an Excel file with the date of their next maintenance, and he’s supposed to text them about a week before. But with the daily workload, he often forgets.

He asked me:
"Could you build something super simple that just texts customers before their date?"

I was going to write a tiny script just for him… but then I realized this is a very common issue for small businesses. They don’t want a CRM or automation flows, they just want "send this SMS before this date."

So I built AutoRemind → a tiny reminder tool for small businesses.

It does exactly what he needed:
• Import customers from Excel (or add manually)
• Choose how many days before the date to send a reminder
• Customize the SMS message
• Use your own Twilio keys (free), or let the app send SMS for you
• And then it runs on autopilot

No dashboards.
No workflow builders.
No complexity.
Just a minimal SMS reminder engine.

I originally built this for my cousin, but I’m launching it here in case it helps other small businesses too (garages, clinics, coaches, local services, etc.)

I’d love your feedback, ideas, or questions! 🙌
