BetterQuote uses artificial intelligence to generate quote content from job descriptions and photos. This disclaimer explains how that works and what it means for you.
Always review your quotes before sending. AI-generated quotes are estimates and starting points — not final documents. You are responsible for confirming all pricing, quantities, and scope are correct before sending any quote to a client.
How BetterQuote uses AI
BetterQuote uses Anthropic's Claude AI model to:
- Convert your job descriptions, photos, and voice notes into structured line item quotes
- Estimate pricing based on typical Australian market rates when no price is provided
- Read photos of sketches, site notes, and drawings to build quotes from visual information
- Transcribe and interpret voice notes describing the job
- Apply material calculations including quantities and wastage allowances
- Apply your account margin uniformly across each line item
- Edit and refine quotes based on your instructions
Limitations of AI-generated quotes
AI-generated content may contain inaccuracies. Common limitations include:
- Pricing estimates are based on typical market rates and may not reflect your local rates, supplier pricing, or current market conditions
- Quantities and measurements extracted from photos are estimates and must be verified on site
- Scope of works descriptions are generated from your input and may not capture every detail of the job
- Material specifications are inferred from your description and may need adjustment for your specific project
- The AI cannot account for site-specific conditions, access constraints, or unexpected complications
Your responsibility
BetterQuote does not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any AI-generated quote. The service provider — you — remains solely responsible for:
- Reviewing all quotes before sending them to clients
- Ensuring pricing reflects your actual costs and margins
- Confirming quantities and measurements on site
- Any contractual obligation arising from a quote you send
- Compliance with trade licensing, insurance, and legal requirements
