Speed up weekly RFI responses by letting AI quickly draft clear, professional replies from your notes.
When you receive a Request for Information (RFI) from a subcontractor or client, responding quickly and clearly is key to keeping your project on track. Instead of writing your reply from scratch, you can save time by feeding your notes or rough answers into ChatGPT or Claude and asking it to draft a professional response. This cuts your writing time dramatically and ensures your reply is easy to understand. Follow these steps each time you get an RFI: 1) Gather all the details and any rough answers or clarifications you have about the question. 2) Open ChatGPT or Claude in your browser. 3) Copy your notes and paste them into the chat, explaining you want a clear, polite RFI response. 4) Review and tweak the AI’s draft if needed. 5) Send the polished reply to the requester. 6) Save your prompt and any common RFI templates for even faster use next time. This simple process helps you handle RFIs faster, reduces back-and-forth, and keeps communication professional without extra hassle or tools.
