## Can AI read a floor plan and help me write a quote?

Yes. Attach the plan to ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini with your rates and ask for room sizes, line items and a total. ChatGPT is the strongest pick for reading drawings since its GPT-6.1 Terra update in October 2026, but all three can draft the quote. A clear PDF works better than a phone photo, and any number it can't read should be confirmed on site before you send.

## The prompt

Fill in the parts in [square brackets], or leave them and the AI will ask you for them.

```text
I've attached a floor plan from a client. Read it carefully and help me quote the job.

My business: [YOUR BUSINESS, e.g. Tidewell Flooring]
The job: [JOB TYPE, e.g. new vinyl plank floors]
Rooms in scope: [ROOMS IN SCOPE, e.g. kitchen, hall and two bedrooms]
My rates: [YOUR RATES, e.g. $6 per sq ft installed]
Extras I charge for: [EXTRA CHARGES, e.g. removal, $1 per sq ft]

Please:
1. List each room in scope with its measurements and square footage, and show your math.
2. Flag anything on the plan that's hard to read or might change the price.
3. Build an itemized quote table: item, quantity, rate, line total, and a grand total.
4. Add a 4-sentence cover note to the client that's warm, clear and ends with one next step.

Don't guess a measurement you can't read. Mark it "confirm on site".
```

## Step by step

1. Save the client's plan as a PDF or clear photo
2. Open a new chat and attach the plan
3. Paste the prompt and fill in your rates
4. Check every measurement against the plan
5. Copy the quote into your usual template

## What you'll get

Room-by-room measurements with the math shown, an itemized quote table with a total, and a short cover note ready to send.
