AI email triage is overhyped at the macro level and underused at the workflow level. For a NZ roofing company, that gap is where the actual ROI lives – and where most of our work happens.

What AI email triage actually does
Inbox gets the AI treatment – drafts replies, files quotes, escalates the urgent, and snoozes the noise. Your team starts the day at zero, not 200 unread.
- 01 Drafts replies in your tone, ready to send
- 02 Auto-files attachments to the right job folder
- 03 Detects complaints and pings the right person
- 04 Weekly digest of what was handled while you slept

Field notes
What years of building for roofing companies taught us.
- Roofers quote off photos, chase weather windows, and juggle insurance jobs that all move at different speeds.
- Fast, accurate quoting from a photo is the single biggest lever for a roofing business's close rate.
How we build AI email triage for roofing companies.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for a roofing company business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI inbox manager.

Questions
FAQ
How long does AI email triage take to ship for roofing companies?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks – narrow scope, real roofing companies data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
How do you price AI email triage engagements?
Fixed-scope pilots first, then either project pricing or a small monthly retainer for the ongoing work. No long lock-ins, no 18-month black-box deals. Most roofing companies are surprised how small the first cheque is.
Anyone else in this space using AI email triage?
Plenty. Inbox time cut from 2 hours/day to under 30 minutes. The interesting question is rarely "does it work" – it's "is your team ready to use the output." That's what we'd scope on the call.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI email triage into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude sits in your account too – we don't operate it from ours.
