Quote requests drag
A homeowner asking for a quote usually contacts three companies. The first to answer properly takes the lead, whatever the price.
Construction & building companies
You are on site. The admin moves anyway.
In a construction company, the person answering quote requests is the same one out on site all day. Sania works through the emails, prepares the quote files and tracks suppliers in the meantime.

Direct answer
In a construction business, Sania automates the administrative side, not the technical one. It works through incoming requests and identifies what is missing before a quote can be produced, prepares the quote file from the available information and your own rates, files supplier emails under the relevant site, drafts follow-ups when a quote goes unanswered and organises appointments. Final pricing, technical feasibility, site safety and regulatory compliance stay human decisions: Sania does not substitute itself for them.
The real problem
The company runs by day, the admin waits for the evening.
The owner of a building company spends the day on site. The requests arrive during that time — and go cold.
Requests arrive incomplete
Area, access, desired timing, condition of the existing structure: something is almost always missing before you can price. Asking costs another round trip.
Suppliers keep chasing
Order confirmations, delivery dates, technical questions: these messages have to be filed under the right site to be of any use.
Quotes go unanswered
A quote nobody comes back to is a job abandoned by default. Chasing needs a discipline nobody has time to keep.
The workflow
A quote request arrives at 10am. The file is ready by midday.
Sania does not price for you. It does everything that comes before pricing — which is where most of the time goes.
Qualify
Type of work, location, timing mentioned: Sania extracts what the request contains and structures it.
Flag the gaps
What prevents pricing is listed explicitly instead of assumed, and can trigger a follow-up email.
Prepare
The file is built from your line items and your prices. No amount is invented to fill a gap.
You price it
The manager checks, adjusts quantities and price, then approves the send.
Supplier tracking, the other half of the job
A supplier sends an order confirmation or announces a delivery delay. Sania files the message under the relevant site where the available data allows it, prepares the follow-up and flags anything with an impact on the schedule. Anything requiring a judgement — accepting a delay, switching supplier — comes back to you. See quote creation.
What it touches
Usable from a site, not only from an office.
The point that matters in this trade: access from the field, without opening a computer.

What Sania does not touch on a site.
Construction is a trade where mistakes have physical and legal consequences. The assistant's scope stops at admin.
Nothing to do with safety
Site safety, worker protection, risk assessment: Sania plays no part in any of it and produces no document relating to it.
No technical calculations
Sizing, structure, technical measurement: these come from your tools and your teams, never from an assistant's estimate.
No regulatory compliance
Sania gives no opinion on a permit, a standard or a requirement. A question of that kind goes to a person.
No invented prices
A line item with no known rate is flagged as to be confirmed. The assistant never infers an amount to complete a quote.
No commitment on timing
Confirming a start date or a site duration commits the company. That confirmation stays yours.
FAQ
Construction: frequently asked questions.
Can Sania price a quote on its own?
No. It prepares the file: type of work, available information, relevant line items and your stored rates. Final pricing stays with the manager, because it depends on site access, the condition of the existing structure and the company's workload — things an assistant cannot assess.
Does it work from a building site?
Yes. Beyond the browser, Sania is reachable through Telegram, so you can see what is waiting and approve a send from your phone. That is often the condition for a company owner to use it at all.
Does Sania handle site safety?
No, deliberately. Safety, regulatory compliance and technical decisions are outside the assistant's scope. Sania works on emails, quotes, supplier tracking and follow-ups — the admin, not the trade.
What if we do not have a CRM?
That is not a blocker. Tracking can stay in the inbox, or rest on a simple Notion or Airtable base set up during onboarding. We do not make getting started conditional on buying more software.
How does Sania know which site a supplier email belongs to?
It uses the sender, order references and the history of exchanges. When the available data does not settle it, it says so rather than filing at random: a message filed under the wrong site is worse than one left unfiled.
How long before it is usable?
Onboarding covers connecting the inbox, recording your line items and rates, and defining the approval rules. It is a guided process and the 7-day trial is designed to cover it.
