Remodely AI

How much does AI consulting cost vs. our current marketing spend?

Most of our remodeling and construction clients were spending $4,000–$12,000/month across an SEO agency, an answering service, a marketing-automation SaaS, a website host, and ad management. Our typical engagement is a one-time setup plus a flat monthly that lands well below the sum of what we replace — usually 40–70% lower. We give you the math up front, in writing, with the named services we expect to retire.

How long until we can drop our outside agencies and SaaS tools?

Phase 1 (audit + roadmap) takes 1–2 weeks. Phase 2 (build + integrate) takes 4–8 weeks depending on how many tools you're replacing. Most clients are off at least their SEO retainer and answering service within 90 days. We don't rip anything out until the replacement is live and your team is trained.

Will AI replace my office staff?

No — it replaces the worst parts of their job so they can focus on the highest-leverage work. AI answers after-hours calls, handles routine intake, schedules estimates, and chases follow-ups. Your office manager spends time on actual customer relationships and project coordination, not message-pad triage. Most clients keep the same headcount and grow revenue.

Can it integrate with QuickBooks, Jobber, ServiceTitan, and our existing tools?

Yes. API integration and mapping is the core of what we do. We connect QuickBooks for invoicing, Jobber, ServiceTitan, and HousecallPro for jobs and dispatch, Google Calendar for scheduling, Twilio for SMS and voice, Stripe for payments, and supplier portals for material pricing. If a tool exposes an API or webhooks, we wire it. If it doesn't, we'll tell you up front before you sign.

What about AI making things up — hallucinations on customer calls?

The AI is locked to your real data: services, materials, pricing tiers, service areas, scheduling rules, financing options. It cannot invent a phone number, an address, or a quote it doesn't have grounding for. When it doesn't know, it says 'let me get a human on this' and routes the call. Every conversation is recorded and reviewable.

How does AI Search Optimization differ from regular SEO?

Google still matters, but ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Grok now answer 30%+ of buyer-research queries directly — they cite sources instead of sending users to them. To get cited, your site needs structured data (Schema.org), clear FAQ blocks, citable statistics, real local signals, and content the language models can quote. We optimize for both — our free AI Visibility Grader at remodely.ai/grader.html shows where you stand today.

Do we own everything you build?

Yes. The website, the CRM data, the call recordings, the AI agent prompts, the integrations — everything lives in your accounts on infrastructure we set up in your name. If you ever decide to part ways, you keep the system and the data. No marketing-platform jail. That is the entire point.

Do we need our own developers, data scientists, or AI experts?

No. The whole reason this works for remodelers is that you don't need a tech team to run it. We build, integrate, document, and train. Your office manager and crew leads operate the system day to day. We stay on retainer for changes, new integrations, and quarterly tune-ups — at a fraction of an in-house developer salary.
