End-of-Month Dashboard

The Big Picture

It's Friday afternoon, end of the month. Norm needs to understand where his business stands across all three active projects. He's got draw requests due, an owner calling about Davis Islands, and no clear picture of his financials.

Norm's Friday Afternoon Phone Calls

Norm → Dani Reyes
2:00 PM · 8 min

Seminole Heights update. "Going good." No specifics on change orders or schedule.

Norm → Jimmy Chen
2:12 PM · 14 min

Davis Islands. Jimmy mentions "some electrical stuff" but doesn't flag the $14.6K dispute. Says "we're working through it."

Norm → Marcus Rivera
2:30 PM · 18 min

Hyde Park. Marcus says owner keeps adding work. Norm: "Are you documenting it?" Marcus: "I'll get to it." Six verbal changes, zero paperwork.

David Henderson → Norm
2:55 PM · 22 min

SURPRISE: angry call about the $14,600 electrical line item. This is how Norm finds out. Bad way to end the week.

Total: 62 minutes of phone calls

This is what AI agents do for contractors.

Same team. Same projects. Same problems. The difference is whether you find them first — or hear about them from an angry homeowner on a Friday afternoon.
