AI agent for interior designers
Contractor Site Issue Agent
Every site issue answered, fixed and closed before handover
What it does
During a renovation, contractor questions come by text, email and phone, and answers get lost. This agent collects contractor questions, site photos and the designer's visit notes into one issue log. Each issue gets a location, owner and due date. Where the drawings and specs give a clear answer, it drafts one and cites the sheet. Unclear questions go straight to the designer. Before each site visit it lists the open issues. After a fix, it asks for photos and checks them against the spec, such as tile layout, paint color or fixture height. Items that do not match stay open and the contractor is asked to correct them. The designer approves answers and closes items. Edge case: a question whose answer would change cost is turned into a change order request instead of a simple reply.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
