Voice notes or typing: faster quotes for people who work with their hands
2026-11-06 · Jobsay team
Typing on a phone with dusty hands is slow. Talking is not. Most tradespeople can describe a job in under a minute, and that is usually all the information a first draft needs.
How to dictate a job well
- Say the customer name and address first.
- Describe the problem, then the fix, in that order.
- Name parts with quantity: "two quarter-turn shutoff valves".
- Say your labour as hours or a flat number.
Keep it accurate
Always read the draft. Check numbers, units and anything the tool guessed. A draft is a time saver, not a replacement for your judgement. That is how Jobsay is built: it drafts, you decide. More on who we are and how your voice data is handled in the privacy policy.
