Get the job details before you quote.

Customers ask “how much for a kitchen?” and send one blurry photo. The AI asks the rest of your questions, asks for photos, and gives your estimator a complete job brief. Once you send the quote, it follows up until the survey is booked.

  • Works on your WhatsApp number
  • Prices stay with your estimator
  • We set it up for you in days

From a vague question to a complete brief

The AI asks your questions in your order, in everyday language, and is set up not to give prices. Your estimator gets the same brief every time.

Follow up on every quote you send

Most quotes aren’t rejected. People just forget to reply. Katalis.app follows up on the days you choose, using message templates WhatsApp has approved. When the customer replies, the AI answers simple questions and passes the rest to your team.

    Can someone come and measure on Saturday?

    Survey booked: Saturday 10:00

Surveys go straight into your calendar

The AI offers free survey times from your estimator’s Google Calendar, within your working hours. No more back-and-forth about times. Your team still plans the route.

Rachel chose Saturday 10:00 from the free times. It went into the calendar, and the booking shows in her conversation.

Questions contractors ask

Will the AI give customers a price?

No. It collects the scope, size, budget, timeline, location and photos. Pricing stays with your estimator, and the AI tells the customer that if they ask.

Can customers send photos and videos?

Yes. Photos and videos sent on WhatsApp stay in the conversation and on the contact, so your estimator sees them before the survey.

We do kitchens, bathrooms and full builds. Can the questions be different?

Yes. Each job type has its own questions. A ceiling leak needs different details from a kitchen, and the AI asks the right ones.

When do the follow-ups stop?

We set them to stop when the customer replies, books a survey or says no. You choose the timing and the wording.

Can our sales team still chat with customers directly?

Yes. Everyone works from one shared inbox. Anyone can take over a conversation, and the AI stops replying.

How long does setup take?

Usually a few days. We add your job types, questions, calendar and follow-up schedule, then test everything with you.
