Questions, answered

Will it email customers without my team reviewing the message first?

No. Every follow-up is drafted in Gmail and left for a team member to review and approve. Nothing is sent automatically.

How does it decide which quotes to follow up on?

It looks for deficiency repair quotes sent more than 5 days ago that have not been accepted, won, or scheduled in BuildOps, and ranks them by dollar value.

What if a customer already accepted a quote this week?

It reads the live quote status in BuildOps each run, so any quote already marked accepted, won, or converted to a job is automatically skipped.

Put this on autopilot.
