Estimate Follow-Up Automation

Quotes drafted from your notes, and unsigned quotes followed up

Drafts quotes from your job notes or photos using your own price list, and follows up quotes that haven't been signed, by text and email. A person approves every quote before it's sent.

Emails, forms and spreadsheets sorted into the right trays, with one item held for approval.

Can AI write quotes for a small business?

Yes, as a draft a person checks. Given your price list and the job notes or photos, an AI assistant can draft the quote in your format, and follow up quotes that haven't been signed on a schedule. The DIY Setup Guide is $99 for ChatGPT or Gemini; the $1,500 Done-For-You Setup connects it to your email, texts and calendar.

What it's worth

What published research shows

  • Industry figure

    Firms that replied to a lead within an hour were nearly 7 times as likely to qualify it as firms that waited longer (Harvard Business Review, 2011).

Example

If following up on time wins one more $1,000 job a quarter, that's $4,000 a year.

An example to show the math. It isn't a promise or a result.

Questions

Before you buy

Will it send quotes on its own?

No. Every quote is a draft until a person approves it. Follow-ups on a quote you've already sent can go out on a schedule you set.

Does it know my prices?

It uses the price list you give it, and nothing else. If a job needs something that isn't on the list, it marks the line for you to price.

Can it read photos of the job?

Yes, in ChatGPT and Gemini. It describes what it sees and drafts the lines; you check measurements and quantities before sending.

Which tools does Done-For-You Setup connect to?

Your email (Google or Microsoft), a texting service and your calendar. We check yours on the setup form before work starts.

What does the DIY Setup Guide include?

Prompts, a sample estimate and three quote layouts, and a follow-up playbook with day 2, 5 and 10 messages. It works in your own ChatGPT or Gemini account.
