The problem it solves

Buyers want to know how their project is coming along, but chasing contractors for updates and then writing to every buyer takes a chunk out of your day. Miss a day and buyers start calling, worried something's wrong.

Who it fits

Real estate developers managing buyer communication across multiple construction projects.

How it works

  1. Every morning the system checks a Google Sheet for new contractor reports
  2. It filters for reports submitted that day
  3. Progress details are compiled into a project update
  4. Buyers receive the update by email and WhatsApp
  5. If a contractor hasn't submitted a report, administrators get an alert

We can build this. But should you?
