Typically saves about 45% of the time10 min to set up

1Use the voice button in your field app, or the voice mode of an approved AI app on your phone.

3Paste the prompt below with your recording or transcript.
4Check the result and paste it into the job sheet.

Prompt to copy

Turn my spoken job notes into three short parts: 1) Work summary for the job sheet (bullet points: problem found, work done, parts used with quantities), 2) A plain-English note for the customer (under 80 words, no jargon, no prices unless I said them), 3) Follow-ups for the office. Do not add anything I did not say.
