        "text": "A simple DIY build is reasonable when the site has few pages, low-risk forms, straightforward content, and no unusual integrations. Professional help becomes more valuable when the project involves custom software, complex data flows, ecommerce, accessibility remediation, migration, or a costly failure.\n\nContext: AI reduces some drafting and coding effort, but it does not remove requirements analysis, testing, deployment, maintenance, or troubleshooting. Community reports also highlight difficulty with debugging and exporting projects.\n\nKey factors:\n- Business impact of downtime or errors\n- Technical complexity and integrations\n- Owner’s available time\n- Need for ongoing support or handoff\n\nPractical guidance: Ask for a written scope, ownership map, test plan, backup process, and handoff documentation before hiring help. For DIY work, begin with a contained page or workflow rather than the entire business system.\n\nRun My AI Business’s educational material can help an owner understand the work before deciding who should perform it.",
