Missing a signed lien waiver

I just landed a kitchen remodel at 123 Main St, Austin.
Got it. In Austin that needs a Building, Electrical, and Plumbing permit. I started the project and added all three to your tracker. Want me to draft the remodel contract next?

The work is in the field. The headache is in the office.

Chasing permits across city portals. Re-typing the same contracts. Invoices that slip. Crews waiting on answers. Most contractors lose hours every week to admin, or pay someone else to do it. SQM.AI does it in a chat.

How it works

No setup, no spreadsheets. Just tell it what you need.

01

Talk to it

“I just landed a kitchen remodel in Austin.” Type or speak, like texting your office manager.

02

It handles the paperwork

Finds the right permits, drafts the contract, sets up the project, and tracks every deadline.

03

You stay on the job

Everything lives on one board. Status, owners, and money, visible at a glance, on any phone.

Interactive, no signup

One assistant. The whole back office.

Everything a contractor dreads, handled in plain English.

AI Chat Agent

Your back office, in a conversation

Tell SQM what happened on the job and it acts. It finds the permits, starts the project, drafts the paperwork, and tracks every deadline. The whole interface is just chat.
