Use AI to create a complete pre-quote site visit checklist that ensures you never miss critical details.

Before you quote a job, you need to gather the right information on-site—and missing even one detail can mean eating costs later or awkward follow-up visits. AI can build you a custom site visit checklist based on the specific job type, so you walk in prepared and walk out with everything you need to quote accurately. This works for everything from panel upgrades to full rewires to EV charger installs. The trick is to give AI the job type and any special factors (age of building, access issues, local code requirements), and it'll generate a detailed checklist covering measurements, existing conditions, hazards, access points, material compatibility, and client preferences. You can save these checklists in your phone's notes app and pull them up on every site visit. Over time, you'll refine them based on what you actually forget or need most often. This approach turns you into the electrician who never has to go back for measurements, never forgets to check the main panel capacity, and never quotes a job without knowing if there's asbestos or knob-and-tube hiding in the walls. It's a small prep step that saves hours of rework and makes your quotes accurate and confident from the first conversation.

I'm an electrician and I need to visit a site tomorrow to quote a job. The job is: installing a 200-amp panel upgrade in a 1970s single-family home with a partially finished basement. Create a detailed site visit checklist that ensures I gather all the information I need to provide an accurate quote. Include sections for measurements, existing conditions, access and safety concerns, material compatibility, and questions to ask the homeowner. Make it practical and easy to follow on my phone while I'm walking through the property.
