Before you send a job
No install. Email only. Cited first pass. Human review. Then a retainer if you continue.
Using it
How the inbox helper works on a live job.
No. You forward files to a private inbox we stand up after kickoff. There is no customer dashboard and no software to roll out.
Custom-home general contractors and high-value specialty trades. HVAC and mechanical, millwork, and similar shops. Not a generic AI shop. Forward a bid set, revision, or quote. Get coverage, briefs, answers, and drafts back in the same thread.
A short cited reply plus PDF/XLSX attachments. Quantities stay PRELIMINARY until a person on the job confirms them.
Review
Who checks the work, and what happens when a finding is thin.
Your team. VGML returns the work in the thread. Nothing goes to a client or vendor until someone on your job sends it. You mark what is wrong. We pass again.
No. Drafts stay in the thread. VGML does not send outbound mail to your clients or vendors.
Pilot
One project first. Retainer only if you continue.
Setup is up to 3 weeks on one live job: forward the thread, we return a cited pass, you mark it, we revise on that same set. After a walkthrough on your live job, you choose month one at $1,350 or walk away.
Setup is free for up to 3 weeks on one live job, plus one revision of that same set. After a walkthrough, month one is $1,350 if you continue. Founding range $1,350–$1,750. Founder-gated white-glove. About 8 completed jobs per month. Extra jobs are quoted. Cited reply in 2 business days after a complete file set. Clock pauses if files are missing.
Data
What we see and store.
Only what you send or already authorized. Nothing else. Do not put bid sets on the public contact form. After kickoff we stand up a private inbox.
