The problem it solves

Every new project inquiry means reading the requirements, writing a proposal from scratch, and manually logging the client's details, and it's easy to fall behind when several come in at once. Slow replies can lose you the job before you even get to quote it.

Who it fits

Freelancers and small service businesses who field inbound project requests.

How it works

  1. Starts when someone submits a project request form
  2. AI reads your services and pricing document for reference
  3. AI reviews the request and drafts a custom proposal
  4. The client's details and proposal are logged in a spreadsheet
  5. A personalized email with the proposal is sent to the client
What you get

Proposals sent out while the lead is still warm

Every new project inquiry gets a custom proposal drafted and emailed back to the client, built from your own services and pricing.

What you get

A custom proposal emailed to the client and a logged record of the inquiry in a spreadsheet.

What you need

A Jotform account, a Google account for Docs and Sheets, a Gmail account, and a Google Gemini API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
