AI for tradespeople: less paperwork, more time on site

Quotes, invoices, reminders: AI can take on a large part of the paperwork without changing the way you work.

In 2026, 30% of French construction businesses already use an AI solution (France Num barometer), and the e-invoicing reform is their top priority. It is the right time to structure quotes and invoices, then automate data entry.

Concrete use cases

Quotes from a voice note

You dictate the job as you leave the customer’s home; the draft quote is ready, with your catalogue prices. You check it and send it.

E-invoicing without double entry

Compliance with the 2026 French reform, then automatic reading of supplier invoices and matching with your jobs.

Follow-ups and customer replies

Quote and unpaid-invoice reminders, answers to common questions: drafted by AI, approved by you.

Site reports

Photos and voice notes taken on site become a clean report for your customer: work done, points to approve, next visit. No more evenings spent writing.

Sorting incoming requests

Emails, forms, messages: AI sorts quote requests, flags urgent ones and drafts a first reply. You call back the right customers first.

What it changes day to day

  • Fewer evenings in the office: the paperwork gets done while you are on site.
  • Quotes sent faster, so fewer customers going to a competitor.
  • No double entry between quotes, invoices and accounting.
  • You stay in control: AI prepares, you approve before anything is sent.
  • Your tools stay the same: we connect to your current software, or even a simple spreadsheet.

How much does it cost?

Every project starts with a 2 to 4-day scoping phase (€1,600 to €3,200) to check what is feasible with your data and price it precisely. A first prototype tested on your real quotes takes 1 to 2 weeks on average (€4,000 to €8,000). You then decide, with full knowledge, whether to go further.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to change my quoting or invoicing software?

No. AI connects to your current software. If you work in a spreadsheet, we start from there.

Is it compatible with e-invoicing?

Yes. Since September 2026, all French businesses must be able to receive e-invoices; issuing them becomes mandatory for small businesses in September 2027. The project integrates your approved platform.

Is my data safe?

Your quotes, prices and customer data remain your property. I advise you on hosting (in Europe and GDPR-compliant, or elsewhere depending on your needs), but you decide. And nothing is sent without your approval.

I'm not comfortable with computers, is this for me?

Yes. The whole point is to make your life easier: a voice note or a photo is enough, and I support you until you are comfortable with the tool.

Do you work on site?

Yes, in Landes (40), Pyrénées-Atlantiques (64) and Nouvelle-Aquitaine for key meetings; the rest of the work is done remotely, anywhere in France.
