Roller in hand, scaffold up. The painting job goes to whoever picks up first.
Painting means paint-covered hands from morning to night — picking up never comes at a good time. Customers compare four or five painters before choosing, and the one who doesn't answer drops off the list without even a callback. A $1,600 job is decided by ten minutes of silence.

FAQ
House Painters: your questions
How does the AI estimate the area to paint?
It asks the right questions: number of rooms, ceiling height, walls needing prep, and requests photos. You get an indicative range — never a made-up number — and refine on site.
Does it handle exterior rendering requests?
Yes: exterior requests (rendering, painted cladding) are separated from interior decorating from the first exchange, with facade photos requested. Two separate queues, two types of quotes.
The customer wants a price on the phone, what does it do?
It never makes up a price. If you configure base ranges, it shares them; otherwise it promises a callback from you after the visit. The goal: get the appointment, not improvise a quote.
I juggle short and long jobs, does it adapt?
Your rules are yours: visit durations, callback delays, offered slots. The AI respects your pace and stacks up requests while you're on a long job.
