Remote Quoting

Quote a property
without leaving the ute.

Type the address and FieldForge pulls up the property from above. Add the photos the customer sent, and the AI drafts an estimate that's honest about what it can and can't see — anything unverified is flagged to confirm on site. Professional price, sent the same day.

How It Works
Enquiry at breakfast. Quote by smoko.
1
The enquiry lands
A customer messages you an address and a couple of photos of the overgrown hedge. Normally that means "I'll come have a look next week." Not any more.
→
2
Assess it from your chair
Flip the job to Remote, type the address — FieldForge verifies the location and uses the overhead view of the property. Attach the customer's photos, add a line describing the job, and hit Analyse.

3
Send an honest price
The AI drafts the estimate and marks it as a remote estimate — anything it couldn't verify from the imagery is flagged on the line item to confirm on site. Review, adjust, send. Same day.
Address in, property up
The address becomes
a view of the job.

Switch the job location to Remote and type the address. FieldForge confirms it found the place — "overhead view will use this address" — and the AI assesses the property from above alongside whatever photos the customer sent. You describe the job in a line ("trim overgrown hedges"), attach up to six photos, and let it work. You're quoting the actual property, not a mental picture of it.

  • On-site / Remote toggle on every photo analysis
  • Address verified before the AI relies on it
  • Aerial view + the customer's photos assessed together
  • Up to six photos — front, back, problem areas

Honesty built in
An estimate that tells you
what it doesn't know.

This is the part most AI tools get wrong: they sound confident about everything. FieldForge doesn't. The remote estimate reads the aerial and the photos like an operator would — it'll pick the hedge species it can see and describe the site — but when the imagery can't answer something, it says so. Line items it couldn't verify are marked low-confidence with "verify on site" right on the line, and the internal notes spell out what to check when you get there. You send a real price, and you arrive knowing exactly what to confirm.

  • Reads the aerial view and photos together, like an operator
  • Low-confidence line items flagged "verify on site"
  • Estimate marked remote — nothing pretends to be measured
  • Site-visit checklist rides along on the job

Measure it while you're there
Don't estimate the lawn.
Measure it off the map.

For area-based work, remote doesn't have to mean rough. From the same screen, open the map and trace the lawn corners on the satellite view — FieldForge calculates the exact square metres and prices the quote off that confirmed measurement. The one number that matters most in a mowing quote stops being a guess, even though you've never set foot on the property.

  • Tap-to-trace measurement from the same remote flow
  • Exact square metres priced through your rates
  • Measurement saves to the property for every future quote

Why it wins work
Speed wins quotes. Honesty keeps them.

Same-day answers

Reply with a real price while the competition is still promising to "swing past for a look next week."

No wasted trips

Drive to jobs you've won, not to quotes you might lose. The site visit happens after the yes, not before the maybe.

Nothing forgotten on site

The verify-on-site flags ride along on the job, so the walk-around when you arrive checks exactly what the AI couldn't.

Pairs with paste-a-text

The enquiry text creates the customer and the quote shell; remote analysis prices it. See AI Quoting.

Measured, even remotely

Trace the lawn off the satellite view and the quote prices off exact square metres, not a couch-distance guess.

Professional on arrival

The customer gets the same branded PDF quote with online acceptance and Stripe payment as every FieldForge quote.

FAQ
Remote quoting questions
As accurate as what the AI can actually see — and it tells you the difference. Anything it can verify from the imagery and photos gets priced normally; anything it can't gets flagged low-confidence with a "verify on site" note on that line item. The estimate is marked as a remote estimate, so when you do get on site you know exactly which numbers to confirm.
No — the address alone gives the AI the overhead view to work from, and you can measure the lawn straight off the map. Photos the customer sent sharpen the estimate a lot though: condition, access, how overgrown things really are. Add up to six.
Yes. From the same screen, open the map and trace the lawn corners — FieldForge calculates the exact square metres and prices off that confirmed measurement. See On-Map Measurement for the full story.
The customer gets the same professional branded quote they always get. The remote flag and the verify-on-site notes are for you — they ride along on the job so nothing gets forgotten when you turn up.
Speed wins work. The operator who replies the same day with a real price usually beats the one who says "I'll swing by next week for a look." Remote quoting lets you answer every enquiry the day it arrives and save the driving for jobs you've already won.
