Automate your contractor quotes and follow-ups in Quebec

In short

A contractor can automate quote preparation from job-site notes, sending the quote, following up with a client who has not answered, confirming the site-visit appointment and chasing the final invoice. You approve every quote before it goes out, and every action stays in the log.

Calling is the shortest path. By form or by email, we reply within 1 business day. The audit takes 30 minutes and commits you to nothing.

The quote that goes out too late

You visit, you measure, you jot notes on your phone or on a scrap of paper. In the evening, all of that has to become a clean quote, go out, and then you have to remember to follow up with the client who never answered. The day on site comes first; the quote waits.

We have no statistic to quote you about quotes in Quebec, and we will not invent one. But you know what happens to a quote sent late, and to one that was never followed up.

Run the math on your own numbers: how many quotes you send in a month, what share you actually follow up on, and what an average contract is worth to you. That is the amount sleeping in your phone.

What “quotes and follow-ups” actually covers

Five sub-tasks. The third one is the one always forgotten, and it is often where we start.

1

Drafting the quote from job-site notes

Your notes, your photos, your voice memo: the AI turns them into a structured draft quote, with your line items, your prices and your terms. You correct and approve; you do not start from a blank page.

2

Sending it

The client receives a clean document in your brand, and the file moves to “awaiting reply”. You know what went out, and when.

3

Following up with the client who has not answered

No reply after the delay you set? A short, polite follow-up goes out. Then a second one, by your stages. It is the most frequently forgotten task, and it no longer costs you anything to do.

4

Confirming the site-visit appointment

The visit to the site or to the client is confirmed the day before, with the address and the time window. A trip for nothing is time you do not bill.

5

Chasing the final invoice

The work is done, the invoice is out, and it waits. The reminder goes before the due date, then after, by your stages, with how to pay. If needed, the file comes back to you with the full history.

A typical day, step by step

Here is how a day runs once the system is in place. Every step is labelled: done by the AI, or kept by you.

  1. Early morning AI

    The day’s visits are confirmed with the clients. Cancellations come in before the truck rolls.

  2. Mid-morning You

    You visit, you measure, you dictate your notes. Nothing to type on site.

  3. Midday AI

    A draft quote is ready from your notes, with your line items and your prices.

  4. Afternoon You

    You read it over, adjust a price, approve. The quote goes out.

  5. End of day AI

    Quotes with no reply move to the next follow-up stage. Overdue invoices get their reminder.

What about your software?

You may already work with quoting, invoicing or job-management software, and keep your books in Acomba, QuickBooks or Sage.

  • Acomba
  • QuickBooks
  • Sage

A connection is generally possible as soon as your software offers a connection interface; we verify this during the audit. We promise no integration before that check. If there is no interface, we look at exports, dropped files and assisted entry, and we tell you plainly what that changes for the project.

Timeline

First process in production in 2 to 6 weeks

A project runs between CA$4,000 and CA$25,000. A single process — quote follow-ups wired to your email, for instance: low end of the range. Quotes assembled from notes, per-item pricing, visit confirmations and invoice chasing, all tied to your software: high end.

The first process is in production in 2 to 6 weeks. We deliver one at a time, and you see the result before paying for the next.

The phone is not what this page is about

Quotes and follow-ups go out by email and text. If your problem is the phone ringing while you are on a roof, that is a different job, and it has its own site.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI set my prices?

No. It uses your line items and your prices exactly as you defined them, and assembles the document. If a line is missing or a price looks out of the ordinary, it flags it instead of guessing. You approve every quote before it goes out.

My job-site notes are handwritten or dictated. Does that work?

A photo of a handwritten note, a voice memo, a text you send yourself: those are valid inputs. The more consistent your notes, the better the draft. During the audit we start from your real notes, not from a made-up example.

Will it connect to my software?

A connection is generally possible as soon as your software offers a connection interface; we verify this during the audit. We promise no integration before that check. If there is no interface, we look at exports and dropped files, and we tell you plainly what that changes for the project.

I run a small crew. Is this for me?

Often more than for a large one. In a small crew, quotes and follow-ups rest on one person, and that person is on the job sites. A project at the low end of the range, on a single process, changes the week.

How fast can we start?

The first process is in production in 2 to 6 weeks. We start with whatever hurts most: often quote follow-ups, because they are entirely forgotten and they measure immediately.

Let’s talk about the quotes still waiting

The free AI audit takes 30 minutes. We look at how you build a quote, how you follow up and what you let slide, then we tell you what to automate first and what it costs. No commitment.
