Tips
- Crop out house numbers and family photos before you share anywhere.
- Give the AI your notes and the facts. It turns them into clean reports.
- Code and the manufacturer’s install instructions win over anything the AI says.
- Review every draft before you send it. You’re accountable for what goes out.
