AI for Interior Designers

AI Receptionist for Interior Designers

A homeowner who just bought a $1.4M property wants help with whole-home design, a developer is choosing between three firms for a 12-unit project, and someone calls hoping to get a free quote on 'a few accent pillows.' Your design fee starts at $7,500. The wrong inquiries waste a one-hour discovery call; the right inquiries pay your studio's rent for the year. An AI receptionist qualifies the prospect, explains your service tiers, collects scope and budget, and only books a paid consultation when the lead clears your minimums.
