From Episode 38: We Built an AI Tool That Replaced a Week of Work, starting at 5:21.

Sam Nadler [5:20]: However, what's really fun about this is, post confirming different locations and their prices, we would then need to present these different options to our clients. And that would take a lot of time in corralling all the information and then, creating either a Canva or a Figma presentation to, display it in the best way possible. Each one of these presentations would and to some degree, take us days to perfect. Now we created a different tool that will just pull the information from these estimates that we created of the different properties. You can upload the client logo. You can choose which estimates which properties to include in the estimate. Maybe you did 10 estimates, but you only wanna include seven properties. So you can just, choose which one, and then you can essentially go create immediately the presentation, and you get a website that is you can share with the client instantaneously. So this is obviously demo data, but, immediately, you would have everything needed for this potential in off-site location. The client can see the map, what's included, the all in per person rate, the dates, how many nights, how many guests, etcetera.

Sam Nadler [6:45]: And they can even you know, once this link is shared, they can shortlist which ones they're they're most interested in. So theoretically, if you present them seven, eight properties and they're like, hey. I'm most interested in these two in Miami and this one in New York City, whatever, they can shortlist them. And then on in our next call, we can engage specifically on those three properties. Overall, it's not that crazy of a tool. However, I will say it has saved us a lot of time. I think it's probably our typical prior to having built this tool, our typical turnaround time to preparing, a seven or eight different estimates for an off-site would take us about a week and a half. I would say now it takes us three to four days. As soon as that information comes back from the hotel and we've locked in those rates, we can essentially have a presentation ready for our client. So it just greatly accelerated that turnaround time.

Sam Nadler [7:41]: When you have a client who's potentially interested in off-site or really interested in purchasing anything, speed matters. So that's the tool. Any thoughts? Any high level? And this is live in production. So any high level thoughts or feedback?
