Use AI to review your material order list to catch missing items or wrong quantities before you call the supplier.
Before placing a material order or heading to the supply house, paste your list into ChatGPT and ask it to flag anything that seems incomplete or inconsistent. AI can catch things you might overlook—like forgetting wire nuts when you've listed wire, or ordering just one box of staples for a whole-house rewire. It's especially useful when you're ordering materials for multiple jobs at once or working on a project type you don't do every week. This takes less than a minute and can save you a trip back to the supplier or an awkward call to the client when you realize mid-job that you're short. Think of it as a second set of eyes that's fast, doesn't judge, and catches the little things before they cost you time or money.
