Keep evidence for payment disputes
The problem
If a customer disputes the work or won't pay, texts, photos and emails are your evidence. A simple log keeps them together.
What AI does
AI lays out a simple evidence log for each job, so you can record what was agreed, any changes and the photos you took. You fill it in yourself as the job goes.
Time
The steps, in short
- Have AI lay out a blank log.
- Set one up for each job.
- Take photos before, during and after.
- Record each agreed change and how it was agreed.
A short sample prompt
I'm a decorator in [nation]. Lay out a simple blank log for each job with these columns: [your column headings]. Leave every entry for me to fill in.
