Niyra vs hiring a human EA

A human EA is $60K-$150K/yr. Niyra is $228/yr. Here's where each fits.

A senior executive assistant is one of the highest-leverage hires a busy professional can make — and one of the most expensive ($60K-$150K/yr in major markets). Niyra is the affordable layer: she handles the things software can do, leaving the judgment / relationship work to a human EA if you have one.
