A prospect asks for a quote in your site chat or by email; your Aivell collects the missing specs, looks up prices and stock in your own database, and assembles a draft quote — which waits for a human yes before anything reaches the customer. Price lists and margins are read onboard, never uploaded anywhere.
starts when: A prospect asks for a quote — in the site chat or by email
A quote request is homework with a deadline. Someone reads the inquiry, notices half the measurements are missing, emails back, waits, looks up prices across a database and two spreadsheets, checks stock, formats a document — and does it fastest for the prospects who were probably buying anyway. Estimators at busy shops spend whole mornings on this; analysts reckon about 45% of professional-services work is automatable with what exists today, and quote assembly is squarely inside it.
The slow part is rarely the pricing — it is the collecting. Requests arrive incomplete, the ping-pong to complete them takes days, and every day of ping-pong is a day a competitor’s quote might land first.
The intake, the lookup and the drafting run without you. The signature stays yours:
Guardrails carry the weight: the database is read-only, and customer-bound mail is locked behind approval. What is left in the chore is your pricing policy in plain sentences — which is exactly where a pricing policy should live.
No flowcharts, no code — a chore is just a message to your Aivell, in your own words. It shapes it into a solid, guarded procedure and follows it to the letter. This one:
a quote request arrives by chat or email — greet, then get the specs
missing measurements or quantities? keep asking until the list is complete
look up unit prices and stock in the price database
standard items at list price; custom work gets the workshop hourly rate
over €5,000, or any discount at all — draft only, wait for Franca
build the draft — one line per item, totals, valid 30 days
send it to Franca for approval; her yes releases it to the customer
log each quote and what became of it in the quotes sheet
Connected with single-click passkeys — no copied tokens, no OAuth hell.
Every tool can be limited to exactly what this chore needs. For this one, you might set:
No — and not as a policy, as a mechanism. The chore pauses at the draft, and the Email guardrail physically blocks customer-bound mail until Franca approves, which she can do from her phone. The Aivell does the assembling; the committing stays human.
Then the conversation continues until it isn't. Depth, material, wall or free-standing, delivery or pickup — the Aivell asks for what the price list needs, the way your estimator would, and only starts drafting when the spec list is complete.
No. Prices, stock levels and the margins they imply are read from your database by the box in your office, and the drafting happens onboard. Competitors' favorite spreadsheet — your pricing — never transits a cloud service.
In the chore, as sentences anyone can read. List price for catalog items, workshop rate for custom work, no discounts without Franca. When your rates change, you edit the line and the next quote follows the new rule.
A chat widget on your site, an AI colleague in your office. Visitors qualified 24/7, leads saved, sales alerted — conversations never leave your network.
Purchase orders arriving by email — PDF, scan, photo or plain text — read onboard, checked against your prices, entered into your system, confirmed back.
Type a question in the chat, get the answer from your own SQL data — queried read-only, computed onboard, with the query shown for the curious.
An on-premise AI colleague for manufacturing back offices: turns order emails into system entries, works supplier portals, watches stock, reads shop-floor photos.
Quote requests logged, site photos turned into reports, subcontractor certificates chased — an AI colleague that keeps your bids on site.
An Aivell is an on-premise AI colleague: a small box that plugs into your network, runs its own AI onboard and takes the repetitive work off your desk. Prompts, documents, data — nothing ever leaves your office. Unplug the internet: it keeps working.
You describe each task as a chore, in plain language. Your Aivell turns it into a solid, guarded procedure and runs it in the background — with guardrails on every tool, a complete audit trail, and approvals in your hand when you want them. One-time setup, fixed monthly fee. No tokens, no overages.
