Questions from plumbers and gasfitters.
Will it sign my certificates?
No. Only the certifying plumber, gasfitter or drainlayer signs. The AI drafts the certificate from your notes, photos and tests, and reminds you before the deadline.
Does it handle self-certification evidence?
It files the photos, tests and notes you take at each stage against the job, so the evidence is in one place when you sign.
Can it remind clients about backflow tests?
Yes. It drafts the yearly reminder in your words from your client list, and you approve before it goes.
Will anything go to a customer or council unchecked?
No. Certificates, quotes and reminders wait for your approval.
Does it price my jobs?
No. Your call-out fees, hourly rates and fixed prices stay yours.
Can I keep Fergus or Tradify?
Yes. We work around your job software and Xero, and check what connects before quoting.
What happens to customer details?
We explain each AI provider's data handling first, and connect only what each workflow needs.
