Short answer

How can I manage restoration projects with my AI?

You can create new projects and pull live activity logs directly into your chat. Your AI handles the data entry and status tracking so you can focus on the actual restoration work. You'll see the full breakdown of how this works below.

Project management outcomes

Where your data lands.

Your AI handles the heavy lifting of data organization and status updates.

SETUP

Instant project creation

The AI uses your instructions to spin up new restoration files immediately. You don't need to log into a separate dashboard to get started.

MONITOR

Live activity tracking

Get a running list of everything happening on a job. Your AI pulls the latest logs so you stay updated on field progress.

AUDIT

Detailed project views

Ask for specific details on any existing job. The AI fetches the full project profile for your review.

HUMAN

Manual oversight required

The AI manages the data, but you still make the final calls on project scope and resource allocation. It won't make business decisions for you.

The workflow

What your AI does when a project needs attention.

The AI acts as the bridge between your chat interface and the Albi Restoration database.

  1. Initialize the job

    When you describe a new site or incident, the AI sets up the formal project entry in the system.

    create_new_restoration_project
  2. Inventory existing work

    The AI scans your current workload to show you what is active or completed.

    list_restoration_projects
  3. Deep dive into data

    If you need specifics on a single job, the AI pulls the full record for that specific ID.

    get_project_details
  4. Track field movement

    The AI pulls the most recent logs to show you exactly what has changed on a project recently.

    list_project_activities
