AI File Analysis: Smarter Workflow Automation
Build Concierge workflows can now read documents and photos, checking they match what a job actually needs, automatically.
What's New
Build Concierge workflows can now analyse files, not just text.
That means documents, forms, PDFs, invoices, certificates, worksheets and customer photos can all be reviewed automatically as part of a workflow.
Instead of someone opening an attachment, reading through it and deciding what happens next, Build Concierge can now do that work for you.
How It Works
A customer, engineer or contractor sends a file into your business. That could be a completed form, a PDF report, an invoice, a certificate, a worksheet, a photo from site, or supporting documents for a job.
Build Concierge analyses the file, understands what's inside it, pulls out the important information, and passes that into the next step of the workflow automation.
You decide what it should look for.
- For a site photo, that might mean checking it matches the conditions described elsewhere on the job card.
Why It Matters
Many service teams still rely on people manually checking attachments before work can move forward.
That creates delays, missed details and extra admin. With AI File Analysis, workflows can remove that manual review step, so jobs, updates and decisions move forward faster.
For Existing Customers
If you already use Build Concierge workflows, this gives you a new way to automate processes that previously needed someone to check a document or image by hand.
For example, you could use it to:
- Confirm an on site photo matches the conditions described on the job card
- Check before and after photos, for example confirming completed work
- Extract information from an attached PDF
- Check a certificate before updating a job
- Review an invoice before taking the next action
- Pull key details from a form or worksheet
This makes your existing workflows more powerful, because they can now work with the files your team already receives every day.
Checking site photos against job details
Engineers often add a photo to a job card to show site conditions. Build Concierge can now check that photo against what's described in the worksheet, confirming it matches before the job moves on.
The same approach works for before and after photos, such as confirming a visible job is complete
