AI for Contractors & Trades in Memphis

Untangled Work trains contractors and trade businesses across the Memphis metro to hand estimates, invoices, and job paperwork to AI — in plain English, on real jobs. The training is on site and aimed at the office side of the business, so the crew stays on the tools and the books still get done.

Sound familiar?

The tangles we see in the trades.

The estimate backlogI've got three bids to write tonight, and every one starts with a blank page.
The undocumented change orderThe customer asked for extras on site, the crew did them, and nobody wrote it up — so nobody paid for it.
Chasing moneyFinishing the job is easy. Getting paid for it takes four phone calls and an awkward text.
The nightly catch-upCustomers want updates. I want dinner. Something has to give, and it's usually the updates.

Every one of these can be handed to AI — if someone shows your team how, on your real work, in words they understand. That’s what we do.

Where we start

What we untangle first for contractors.

  • Estimate drafting: Site notes, photos, and your real pricing become a clean written estimate — the blank page problem, gone.
  • Change-order writeups: A voice note from the truck becomes a documented change order the customer signs off on — before the extra work is free work.
  • Invoice chasing: Firm-but-friendly payment reminders that go out on schedule, so you're not the one making the awkward call.
  • Customer updates: Job status messages drafted from your notes, sent before customers have to ask.
  • Materials lists: Plans and job notes turned into order-ready materials lists, checked against what you actually stock.

Sessions are scheduled around your jobs — early, late, or between them — and focus on whoever runs your office, whether that's a full-time person or family pitching in after hours.

Real results

We’ve done this for Mid-South businesses.

We’ve helped a Memphis-area commercial sign company, Bluff City Pallet, and The Pharmacy Coffeehouse build working AI workflows — quoting, invoicing, vendor email, online ordering tied to a POS, and content processes their own teams now run.
