AI Upholstery Repair Quote Explainer
About this app
WHAT IT DOES
The AI Upholstery Repair Quote Explainer is a specialized AI agent that helps upholsterers, furniture repair shops, and restoration professionals create clear, customer-friendly quote explainers for repair projects. When a customer brings in a piece of furniture for repair—whether an antique armchair, a modern sofa, or a vintage ottoman—understanding the breakdown of materials and labor is essential for building trust and closing the sale. Provide details about the project including furniture type, fabric type, damage description, foam or padding needs, and any additional work required, and the agent returns a concise, plain-language explainer that breaks down each component—materials, fabric, foam, labor, and any additional services—and explains why each is needed. The output helps customers understand the value of quality materials and skilled labor, and feel confident in their investment.
HOW TO USE
Using this agent is straightforward and efficient. Launch the agent from your BotSurf library and paste your API key once (the host manages key storage securely). In the input area, describe the repair project with as much detail as possible. Include the furniture type (e.g., "mid-century armchair," "Victorian sofa"), fabric type or material (e.g., "wool tweed," "velvet," "leather"), a description of the damage (e.g., "3-inch tear on seat cushion," "worn armrests," "loose springs"), foam or padding needs (e.g., "foam degraded and crumbling," "need new batting"), and any additional work required such as frame tightening, re-webbing, or refinishing. Click "Generate explainer" to receive your quote explanation. You can also use the "Use page selection" button to pull highlighted text from work orders, supplier catalogs, or customer notes, streamlining your workflow. The agent runs entirely within your browser sandbox—nothing is stored or shared beyond what you choose to send.
WHAT IT SENDS
When you press the generate button, the agent sends only the exact text you typed into the input box or the text you selected from the page. It does not transmit any metadata, browsing history, cookies, session data, or any other content from your workspace. The text is sent via a secure, encrypted connection to the AI model provider solely for the purpose of generating your explainer. Usage logs record only the count of runs for billing purposes—they do not store the content of your prompts or the generated responses. No history of your project details or explainers is retained after your session ends. Your customer information and project data remain confidential.
SUBSCRIPTION
The AI Upholstery Repair Quote Explainer is available for $19.99 per month, which includes a 7-day free trial so you can test the agent with your own projects before committing. Each subscription includes 100 runs per month—ideal for upholstery shops handling multiple custom repairs and restorations. Unused runs do not roll over, but you can upgrade or change your plan anytime through your BotSurf account dashboard. Cancel with no penalties or hidden fees.
THE PANEL
The agent runs in a sleek, draggable panel that integrates seamlessly into your BotSurf workspace. Position it anywhere on your screen, snap it to the edge, or collapse it to a compact bubble when not in use. Press the Escape key to quickly dismiss the panel. The panel remembers its last position across sessions when persistence is enabled through BotSurf's state management.
PLEASE NOTE
This agent provides general repair information and does not constitute professional upholstery, valuation, or conservation advice. The AI may generate explainers that require refinement or additional customization for specific materials or techniques. Always verify material compatibility, structural integrity, and safety requirements with professional upholsterers and conservators. For antique or high-value furniture, consult with certified professionals before proceeding.
