Stop Discounting Quotes. Start Knowing Your Margin.
Matey is the AI business coach for painters. It tracks which quotes convert and what discounting costs you, gives you a margin verdict on every job, chases overdue invoices, and plans your week every Monday.
- Quote conversion tracking and a reply for 'that's too expensive'
- Profit per hour on every job, interior or exterior
- Overdue invoices chased with the message already written
You Discounted 6 of Your Last 10 Quotes. That Cost You $4,200.
Painters lose more margin at the quote than on the job. Matey tracks every quote, whether it won, and whether you knocked money off. When a client says it's too high, Matey drafts a short, confident reply that explains the value without dropping the number.
- Win rate by job type: interiors, exteriors, commercial
- Average discount and what it cost last quarter
- AI-drafted reply that holds your price
Everything Painting Pros Need
Job Margin Verdict
Paint, prep materials and hours against the quote. Matey tells you margin and profit per hour and shows a green, amber or red dot on each job.
Monday Business Brief
Every Monday at 8am: last week's numbers, your best margin job, the quote to follow up and the overdue invoice to chase.
Quote Conversion Tracking
See which job types convert and how often you discounted. Matey drafts a confident response when a client pushes back on price.
Overdue Alerts
An invoice 7 days past due goes to the top of your screen with the reminder drafted. Edit, tap, sent. Firmer at 14 and 21.
Room-by-Room Estimates
Break quotes down by room or area. Clients understand the price, approve on their phone, and you track the margin per job.
Paint & Colour Records
Brands, colours and finishes recorded per client, so touch-up calls are easy and repeat work is quoted right.
