Use AI to quickly draft clear RFI responses that keep your subcontractors moving without delays.
Responding to Requests for Information (RFIs) eats up hours every week — you need to find the right drawings, check specs, maybe call the engineer, then write a clear answer that doesn't create more confusion. AI can't look up the technical answer for you, but once you know what to say, it can help you draft a response that's clear, complete, and professional in seconds instead of staring at a blank email. Just tell the AI what the question was, what your answer is (even in rough notes), and who it's going to. It'll organize your thoughts into a proper RFI response format that covers all the bases and keeps everyone on the same page. This works great when you're juggling multiple RFIs at once or need to respond fast so crews don't sit idle waiting for clarification.

“I need to respond to an RFI from my electrical subcontractor. They asked: 'Where do you want the panel located in the storage room — north or south wall?' My answer is: north wall, 5 feet from the east corner, mounted at 60 inches AFF per spec sheet E-101. Write a clear, professional RFI response that confirms this location and references the correct drawing.”
